There's a lot more going on than that. The lighting is quite advanced, which doesn't necessarily equals looking good. And I'm pretty sure the original had dynamic shadows!

This is a completely meaningless statistic unless they also say how many people were working on it!

@alenth

What memes has it produced?

Lol, if they've got rid of .5 scores why on earth do they have it as 8.0 instead of just 8.
The way the whole out of 10 rating is going, it's just becoming a bit silly. Especially given that gamespot clearly try and be a bit more conservative than other sites and almost never give a 10. But you end up with a system where you almost never get anything lower than 6 or higher than a 9. They should just cut it down to the 5 stars.

@Oloryn @BelaidKL @garywood69 Thanks for your suggestions. I've been intent on trying out Mario & Luigi, Fire Emblem and Animal Crossing. There are only a couple of games I'll pay full price for though so I'm gonna wait til they come down to about half the current price! Cheapo

@BelaidKL @garywood69 Lol, why did you buy a 3ds then?
Depends what genre you're looking for. My fav games on the 3ds are Tales Of The Abyss, Ocarina 3D, Resident Evil Revelations, Kid Icarus, Kingdom Hearts, VVVVVV. I've also been playing the 2 DS Zelda games which are both brilliant! (I never had a DS).
So many great games coming soon too. New Zelda, Bravely Default, Sonic, Smash Bros....

Lol I'm the first to defend reviewers against angry comments but this 'just give nintendo 8s' theory is starting to look rather reliable.

@BelaidKL
Dude, I've played mine every day since I bought it. There are so many good games!

Of course, I meant within reason. I consider myself a very moral person- I just have very little tolerance for betrayal. Every girlfriend I've had I've told her if she cheats on me, I'll make her regret it. I think that's quite simple really.

Couple of issues:
1) It's not just gamers, look at youtube!
2) Part of the problem is being detached from human responses when you're saying something. You can't see others looking skeptical, you can't see your 'target' getting insulted. And in reverse, everyone else can't see if you're nice and calm or worked up and angry.
3) You were completely within your rights to get revenge on a girlfriend, as long as it was legal. It might have been over the top and harsh but the fact that we have no punishments for emotional crime in society (but you can go to jail for stealing a chocolate bar) is a huge problem. Better do something rather than nothing.
