I disagree, just because a game was released in 2002 doesn't necessarily make the game bad ... After all, we don't instantly review all Virtual Console games 0/10 because they were released before 2000. It would be one thing to argue that a game hasn't aged well, and the added Wiimote controlls take something away from the game, and then give the game a 2.5 or 3 out of 5; but usually when you are giving a game a 1/5 it is an unplayable mess, not just a game which you played 7 years ago. |
Just because a game "wasn't bad" doesn't make it excusable to repackage it with no worthwhile updates and try to pretend it's a new game.
Seriously, are you so desperate for Wii games that you're willing to accept a port of a 7 year old PS2 game? I'm not.
X-Play isn't judging it as a new game, they're judging it as a port. Rygar doesn't deserve a 1/5 because it was a bad PS2 game, it deserves a 1/5 because it offers no new worthwhile features or gameplay (according to the review) compared to the original.
