Well, this was a failed attempt at being innovative.

i was expecting this, the IGN guys didnt like it at all. If it was a starwars game then they would have given it a higher score.

Well yeah, just how a game that's set in WW2 will likely get higher ratings then a game set in the Spanish American War if the games were almost exactly the same but had different graphics to reflect it as such.

 Starwars >>>> Generic Dragons when it comes to franchises.

Just how if someone released a game exactly like Pokemon it wouldn't sell or review half as well as pokemon.

God, you have to be desperate to put Singstar and Folklore in the AAA list. That`s like saying stuff like DQS or many non-games are AAA.
If you want to show what PS3 offers, stick to Uncharted, R&C and UT3. Then you won`t be surprised when reviews show up.

 Sorry but why   Folklore = non game?

Edit my mistake, I read it wrong.

In fact I love Folklore ^__¨;  






Ouch, sounds like they should have spent more time on the Sixaxis and less on the RSX.

Also technically a AAA game is simply a title that has a huge budget and receives heavy promotion at events etc. It has nothing to do with scores. However it seems to have been turned into some sort of score thing.


 THANK YOU. I'm glad to see there's actually someone who knows this. Everyone else is just inventing arbitrary definitions based on reviews.

i could have sworn the digimon games sold decently...

How do you know if a Spanish American war game would be rated low.. it probably hasnt been done.. just like a revolutionary war game, or civil war game.

I think the game probably would have been recieved better on loose rails, like Star Fox. It would have allowed for masked crappy controls and more time on use the fantastic graphics for better presentation.



I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.

Sixaxis Suckfest

can we use this for every ps3 game that blows please ?
it'll be like a tongue twister because we're saying it so much.

I can say so much to that fanboyish comment but wont becuase I have respect for everyone in the forums. If the six axis "sucks" so much then why is warhawk priased for six-axis?


I'm pretty sure he's not saying that he thinks Sixaxis sucks just that he loves alliteration.



factor 5 has always had simple and/or mediocre gameplay. They need to work on making deeper, more involving gameplay. Great graphics and sound is simply not enough.



currently playing: Skyward Sword, Mario Sunshine, Xenoblade Chronicles X

 Were they being innovative? Everyone makes fun of it for essentially being a dragon version of their previous games (or mention Panzer Dragoon) and the six axis for flying has been around for awhile.
