You know what. Don't look at the HIGHEST RATED GAME as THE BEST GAME OF ALL TIME. Games aren't reviewed for all time are they? So why say the game is going to be the best game of all time when you know a future game will eventually replace it. Instead say it is the BEST GAME FOR ITS TIME. That would be more correct. It would also make this thread / and I would love that.

I agree 100%, and that's what I was trying to say when I got flamed (in my other post). :)


 I think its the way you said it. You should have never said GTA IV was better than OoT. You put an opinion in a thread about facts, and that is where people got pissed off. I for one believe they are too much of different games to compare even thought hey are the same genre. Now I might prefer OoT because I had more fun, even though if I never played it , and just played it now I wouldn't have as much. Next time just keep the opinions out, like I did in the thread that I just made about this subject. 


So, let me use different subject matter to say the same thing, and tell me if you have the same opinion. 

If I bought the best TV in the 1950's, and it was light years ahead of any TV before it, I can say it's the best TV of its time.

If I buy the best TV on the market today, I can say it's the best TV of it's time.

But if I compare the best TV today, to the best TV of the 50's, and by todays standards call the 50's TV worse, I am incorrect? 

A better analogy.

 

If I compared the best movies of the 1950's to the best movies of the 2000's, guess which ones are better?   Damn sure aren't todays.

 

In fact, lets look at all entertainment mediums.   Music, books, movies, art, etc....all are considered to have been better in the past.   Just because some is more technically advanced today, doesn't make it any better than yesterdays greats.
