You can't seriously be comparing charge N blast to Sin and Punishment. Even if conceptually they are the same, charge N blast isn't anywhere near the quality of Sin and Punishment even if it is running on better hardware.

Charge n blast on gamerankings average 63%. I can't find Sin and Punishment on there, but it is definately above a 6. Now you can't rely on reviews for everything obviously but it shows the difference in quality. Blast n Charge was a mediocre shooter, Sin and Punishment was the N64s swan song, a truly bad ass run and gun game bursting with style, great bosses, level design and music.

 

There was nothing wrong with charge n blast... http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/drm/chargenblast

It was a great little arcade shooter just like sin and punishment. Sin and punishment wouldn't have scored much higher than this when it was released...remember PS2 was already out when this game was released. I believe its a standard Kirk Cobain case here...the game never got a fair shake in its day hence the myth hyped it up to AAA status.

But hey...if some people enjoy it as much as other AAA games like Resident evil 4 and Halo...my opinion is a grain of salt.

You can say that all you want, and there is no way to argue with it because it's your opinion. But the vast majority of people that have played it then and now think it's awesome. It's not just a Kurt Cobain case because even when the game was originally released it was highly praised, and people were importing the game for 100$. It was considered the last big hurrah for the N64 and it deserves and deserved the praise it got and is getting.
