I see you don't remember accusing me of never playing the game because I didn't see it as being as earth-shattering as you treated it. Yes, I've played it. No, it doesn't belong on this list. I'm surprised you put Bioshock on here, then. How do you reconcile certain sections - particularly Neptune's Bounty and the Medical Plaza? |
How do I reconcile them? Simply, that they have an air of the time period Bioshock tried so hard to recreate. The water effects in particular are great as well, but even sections like the medical plaza and Neptune's bounty have the art styling that the rest of the game has as well. Its and inspired style, one very hard to recreate in art itself, much less in an entire, expansive game. And it succeeded, even in the areas of waste and where the art style itself was almost hidden.
Accused, huh. If you want to go with that, sure, and hell I'm gonna treat most any Tales game as earth shattering. There will always be people who don't agree with one's general opinion about a game they consider godly. The fact that I don't remember our argument though probably means it wasn't very interesting.

GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.
