Now, when a game scores 90% or higher, that means it's legendary and is one of the best game of it's generation. Games like Super Mario World or Wind Walker are 9/10 games. I seriously have doubts about Metroid standing on the same ground as something legendary like Mario, for example. Just look at Resistance. The game is incredible. Amazing graphics, rock-solid gameplay and great multiplayer with amazing single player, as well; yet the game is still not a 9/10 game. In fact, the game is at 88% on gamerankings, which means that it's an 8.8/10. Gamespot gave Resistance an 8.6/10, which is very close to what Metroid got. Even with a score under 90%, Resistance is respected as the best PS3 game out, one of the best FPS out, and one of the best next-gen game out period. 8.5 is a very strong score, and means that Metroid is a very, very good game. I see nothing wrong with Gamespots reveiw or the overrall score. Metroid, along with other great games, is an 8.5/10 game. |
The boldened statement shows that you have never actually played a single Metroid game in your life, thus proving that your opinion about MP3 holds no weight. Gamers with the slightest knowledge of the NES/SNES days know that the Metroid franchise is just as Legendary as Zelda or Mario.
Also, if a score over 90% makes a game legendary, how the hell do you explain Warioware's 9.1 from Gamespot or their 8.8 of Wii's Zelda Twilight Princess (You said yourself that the Zelda franchise was legendary)? Our complaints have very little to do with the score itself but rather Gamespot's total inconsistancy and lack of justification for the reviews they hand out.
