Twilight Princess was critisized for no voice work because it was text heavy.

How many text heavy mario games have you played? (and I don't mean spin off RPG's, I mean traditional platformers)

But you talk even slower... And it is fantasy.

There's a cutscene that lasts like4-5 minutes where they show Zant taking over Hyrule Castle. With voices that would have been what? 15 minutes?

IMO some games aren't meant for Voice Acting.

[QUOTE="Haziqonfire"]Animal Crossing, Pikmen, Battalion Wars, disaster day of crisis, fire emblem. - Original IP, 4 of which started only on the cube. LordAndrew

Why did no one question the factual accuracy of this comment?

Animal Crossing is basically a GameCube port of a Nintendo 64 game, Battalion Wars is part of the long-running Nintendo Wars series, Disaster: Day of Crisis was always a Wii game, and Fire Emblem originated on the NES.

And don't bump old topics just because you think it would be funny.

Because I did not know any of the things you just listed (except for Fire Emblem)

I think he did it because he thought this thread would be as fun as Southparkchick's.

But if it is separate whyare sales included?

And really, if something wins it wins, then you can't come say "but something else won an earlier poll" That's just silly.

CaseyWegner

why is?? sales included? beats me.

um, i don't recall saying "but something else won an earlier poll." :?

"games are still more important than sales though as the poll showed."

I thought you were refering to the earlier poll you did on the suspect, sorry bad read by me

Great games can flop just as easily as horrible games can do well...just look at Halo 3 ;)

But seriously...the prupose of the hypometer is to see if a game is a flop right? What better way to see if a game flops than let the sales figures decide? A bigger pool of votes reflects the overall perception of the game better than one person who only has about 24 hours of gaming time before the decision has to handed down.

CaseyWegner

sales don't equal quality. people buy games hoping they'll like them.

He doesn't say that, I think.Are the creators of Red Steel happy? They made a game and it sold over 1m copies.

It is another way of deciding if it flopped, not necessarily in quality.

This is an intresting side check, of course this would not overshine the mighty G (sigh)

[QUOTE="CaseyWegner"]i think too many people are trying to blend the real world in with this forum. system wars is a game we play here and is seperate from out there. CaseyWegner

Therefore sales has NOTHING I repeat NOTHING to do with SW`?

no. anarchy won the vote. games are still more important than sales though as the poll showed.

Super mario sunshine recieved horrible reviews, yet in some way, it was a system seller. Solely due to it's name.

People cared if SSBM was 8,1 or 8,9? No.

Did people care that Chrono cross got a 10? It sold less than 3M copies.

GSR doesn't matter at all.

Does Metroid series sell because of their good scores? Mp3 is going to sell more than Mp...

TP has outsold WW even though there are only half as many consoles. Is that due to a review score? No, it's due to good marketing.

Soul calibur got a 10 at GS, yet it sold almost nothing,I think less than a million.

The hardcore want the best tech, PS3 has that so your logic is wrong.

onewiththegame

so no ps2 owners are hardcore

Xbox beat ps2 in tech by a long shot

Great logic.

Big Bill: Small bill, ask Bill if there are any pie in the fridge

Bill: There are more cheese than pie in my fridge

Small bill: Big bill, there are no pie in the fridge

Because there aren't a majority of ps2 HC does not mean there aren't any

Lemmings won't like this, because they think all sales are bad unless they are in their favour. You should state more clearly that you are talking about attachment rate.

Sheep won't like it if it's attachment rate, but there aren't many of us so we will be ignored :D

Cows will split both ways.

Probably, this won't make the cut, even though it is a good idea.

Let me give an example.

Bill: Hmm... Which console should I buy...

Small bill: Buy a Xb! Xbs are COOOL!

Bill: No, the Dreamcast has better games, and online.

Big Bill: No, buy a gamecube, it has great franchises like Mario, Zelda and Metroid!

What category would these people fit into?
