| shio said: My bad. But does the reviewer really think Super Mario RPG is better than, say, Bioshock or World of Warcraft or "cue big recent game"? Because that rating shows that. They need to start reviewing games as if they belonged to the same dome. It shouldn't matter if the game is on retail or on digital distribution. |
Ratings do take value into account. One might say, for example, that SMRPG at $8 is better than WoW at $50 + $12/month.
Besides that, SMRPG is a classic that's easily stood the test of time. Not quite Citizen Kane, maybe, but definitely Nosferatu.
"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."
