That was because Ninja Gaiden 2 wasn't as good as the original. Tell me, how many people were saying "okay, good" when God of War II launched? Killzone 2? Red Alert 2? Jak 2? Ratchet and Clank 2? Halo 2? The only time you say that is when the game does not live up to its predecessor, as is the case, you are correct, with Ninja Gaiden 2, and arguably Resistance 2, but that's 10 pages of argument for another time. Are you really saying Gears and Halo are better than God of War because God of War does not have multiplayer? Does a game really need multiplayer to be good? None of the Zelda games have had multiplayer, no Team ICO game, Fable didn't (the sequel did, but let's not go there), BioShock... some of the best games of all time have been single player only. As for playing it through one time, who's making you? I played through Uncharted 4 times, and Shadow of the Colossus 3 times, and those were both games that people said "had little replay value" (that is, of course, if we are counting GameSpot editors as people which is debatable, but whatever). I say if a game is good enough, what's to stop you from replaying. You can't compare Uncharted, Resistance (ugh) and Killzone 2 to Gears, Halo and Fable if you haven't played them. A game watched is never as good as a game played- if you had played Uncharted and Killzone 2, and not Gears, Halo and Fable, you would prefer the PS3 games. If you don't want to get a PS3, that's fine, but never doubt the power of teh C3LL. Okay? |
Or it will absorb you.
OT: GoWIII...that's a no brainer. Dante's Inferno wouldn't be here if it weren't for GoW
