Let me explain something about the E rating to those of you out there who are obviously confused. When it says E 10+, its stating that the game is suitable for ten year olds, right?

Q: What's the speed of any given naval convoy? A: The top speed of the slowest ship.

This means that while playing Zelda you are doing things that any average ten year old could do. What feeling of accomplishment could one possibly gain from that?

Now look at Dark Souls, a game that makes adults cry out in frustration and pump their fists in elation after completing a particularly difficult part of the game. See the difference?

Ten year olds shouldn't go anywhere near Dark Souls. The oppressive atmospheres, the seriously creepy monsters, the difficulty... kids and simpletons simply cannot hang. The only way Zelda SS wins GotY over Dark Souls is if gamespot replaces their reviewers with a team of 6th grade girls...

How hilariously incorrect. That's factually false as evidenced by the definition of ESRB's regulations. It's a way to discern that a game is good for anyone above a certain age. So a game that is E +10 is suitable for everyone ABOVE the age of 10. To put this in perspective, GoW is an M game, but is one of the most juvenile games I've played. To judge a game based on its ESRB is foolish to put it lightly.

SMG2 was far and away the game that deserved the 10 this generation, if I had to choose. MGS4 and SMG2 happen to be my two "10" games this generation. I've never been impressed by the GTA series, though.

Skyward Sword, of course. UC2 was great but the sequel will have to do something really special to impress me.

Most likely the entire boss roster in Demon's Souls, sans the Flamelurker. That cretin wasted hours of my time.

Personally, I just prefer the PS3 controller. Not much to it.

Final Fantasy X, probably. An amazingly diverse soundtrack which always makes me shiver. Also, Scott Pilgrim's is amazing, along with many of the Megaman games' soundtracks.

[QUOTE="Lexter45"]Back to the Future, Riff, Echochrome, and Super Stardust are not exclusives... Flower looks cool I guess.darkspineslayer
Dunno about rift, but where can I buy Echochrome or Super Stardust if not on PSN? PS3 and PSP still both share the same PSN, more or less

Echochrome can be bought via retail, so it's not an exclusively a PSN title. Though I don't know about SS being anywhere else.

There are a few there that aren't even exclusives. So that's a bit embarrassing. A far better and interesting list could be made dropping the "exclusives" part of the list and just going by what games are the best you can buy via PSN. Get some Braid, Limbo and Scott Pilgrim in there.

I voted just to see the results.

There are really 23 people who think LBP has good platforming? Ewwww.....are standards at an all-time low this generation?

Ly_the_Fairy

I'm more shocked that there are 23 people that think the platforming in LBP is BETTER than the platforming in SMG. Now that's shocking.

Super Mario Galaxy, it's not even close. I love the LBP series, but its platforming isn't what makes it great. It's very floaty and often infuriating.
