@Blazen702 Wow. Are you living on memory lane. Halo CE was a great game for graphics and gameplay, but Halo's story is generic crap. And story only got progressively worse as they tried to expand it. Halo is a fun ride, but like basically any fps the story is usually the barest minimum.
Heidi is a huge fan of BS, and that is about it. This game has close to a 70 average from critics on gamerankings and metacritic, which is about as close as you can get to inclusive. These people generally tend to have major JRPG biases, and go out of their way to give low scores. So if they give it 69ish, how the hell can you claim to be a fan of the genre and give it a 5 or the equivalent of a 50.
And while this goes on, oh look another regurgitation of Minecraft gets a near perfect score.
These guys just ensured that no one will ever back anything they are associated with in the future. I mean their actions border on gross negligence. If they were that unprepared to deal with that kind of money and a project of that scale, they had no business soliciting money from people.
I don't think cool is the only thing they have no clue about. They also lack creativity. There last two consoles have been far inferior to their competitors and the only thing that ever keeps them afloat is their first party titles. Which by the way tend to be the same. I don't really see any major improvement or change in Zelda or Mario from game to game. Its like if you played one you have played them all. And whats the last major IP they came up? Even Wonderful 101 felt like another tired Nintendo goofy game.
Nintendo is basically like a young adult writer. Sure they can make good well selling books like twilight, harry potter, eragon, etc. But nobody takes them seriously in the community as a whole.
@gdainezi Mario Kart 8 sold 2 million, they did not sell 2 million wii u systems in that period. And even with some improvements the wii u will still end this generation a distant third to the ps4 and one.
I realize this has a different audience, but at the end of the day this is a racing game, and I don't see how anyone could objectively rate this the same as Forza and Gran Turismo. It would be like giving a Pulitzer to Harry Potter.
@Kunasha @divinejester @LordCrash88 Not really, I would say most people would expect leveling to be the single most defining features which this game has.
@thekazumalord Have you never played NES or super nintendo games like Megaman? The whole point was they were hard as hell and you died many times trying to figure out how to make it through a level.
