It's probably not as ''relevant'' today, but this is just one of those reminders you have to rewatch

Ok, i dont usually care at all for reviews. Doesnt determine my purchase of a game. But one of the most ridiculous reviews i ever seen must have been the Tropical Freeze review by gamespot. Has anyone seen this before? Whats your opinion on it?

Also Tropical Freeze is one of my fave games of all time. With oustanding soundtrack, and challening unique levels. This game never felt repetetive.

Hmmm, they really didn't like. Below the metacritic average.

they said uncreative level design??? IM DONE!



It's one of the worst reviews I've heard in years. Really, I absolutely despise Gamespot this gen. Some of their Nintendo reviews are shit. Not only this one. And I don't care about the score, it's just that some reviews are awfully bad.

Well, and some scores. I mean: Yoshi's Wolly World a 6/10, Kirby: Rainbow Curse, 5/10,...





Read Gamespots Mega Man Legends 2 review. Its like 3 paragraphs. Reviewer probably didnt play past intro

Read IGN's Double Dragons Neon review. Reviewer obviously got stuck with something he didnt want to review and it shows.

Most reviewers have become a joke, the only reviewers i respect now are GameXplain. Even though they may have some bias here and there for reasons, they make really good reviews. But in the end of the day. Reviews dont meant anything.

On the other hand, they gave Bayonetta 2 a 10, SSBWii U and 3D World a 9, and MK8 an 8. It's not that bad. Just DK.

It's Gamespot. They've had an anti-Nintendo bias for YEARS. (And I don't throw that term around lightly.)

Doesnt matter. this review made all the other reviews pointless. lol

Maybe it was just a person who doesn't liked. I mean, ALBW was their GOTY in 2013. Pretty sure is not the same one as the one that gave 8.8 to TP (or it was?)...

Also, they gave Returns an 8.5
