| BladeOfGod said: @Nick well, maybe, just MAYBE MW2 is NOT OVERRATED and it DESERVES the scores it gets, and IT IS AN IMPROVEMENT over COD 4. Have you ever thought of that??? Have you ever thought that lots of HD games are getting good scores NOT because of graphics but because of other important things??? |
When reviewers specifically mention games like GTA and Halo IN their reviews for Wii games as a comparison for graphics and make pop shots to Wii games like WiiMusic and WiiFit consantly even when talking about other games (making it clear that they are comparing every game to WiiFit and consider the Wii as a whole a joke), its evident where the reviewers stand. Heck, its become so bad that reviewers just use a cop out now where if a game HAS some form of 'waggle' or does something innovative, they claim it 'isn't innovative enough'. Yet if a game doesn't try to implement these features, such as a game like Muramasa or Little King Story, they say the game 'lacks innovation'. The Wii is stuck in a catch 22, whereas the HD systems are getting a free ride of hype and publicity generated by the reviewers love of graphics and name brands.
Hell, a game with the quality and name brand power of MGSIV or Final Fantasy XIII could come out on the Wii now and they'd probably downscore it to a 9.3. Whereas games on the PS2 were generating scores up in the 9.8s by the end of its life cycle despite having FAR inferior graphics for its time. We'll be lucky if Monster Hunter Tri or Dragon Quest X can even surpass 9.0 at this rate.
It takes some pretty heavy blinders not to see what's going on.
