Not officially, but there's an admitted link between review scores and hype. http://www.jivemagazine.com/column.php?pid=2589 Like we said in the review, it's (Paper Mario) a very kiddie game - it's target audience is clearly young gamers - I would say 10 and under. For that reason, we had to score it low. Remember, we aren't scoring games strictly on our personal opinions, we're also scoring them based on how much we think THE GAMING PUBLIC will like them. We've all played games that we personally disliked and scored them well because we've known that most people will like them, and we've also scored games low that we love, because most people won't enjoy them. In the interest of full disclosure, the link also contains a later clarification which does wonders to further muddy matters. |
This isnt a kiddy game... after my sister started plaing she didnt knew what she was doing and died very often in battles... then called it boring and left... this isnt a kiddy game...
