Why does it score so low on story? Does every video game NEED a story? I think not. Certain games are just meant to be played. How would you score Megaman 2, Super Mario Bros 1/3, the original Legend of Zelda or Pacman? These games has a premise, but not really a story.


Even if it has somewhat of a story whether it be weak or not, its still relevant because

Story
-Plot or Story of the game
-Character Impact in the Plot
-Dimensional/Environmental Impact in the Plot
-Opening
-Midway
-Climax

And yes I have rated Mario 1-3 with it too ;o

Only genres I usually never rate storyline are Racing games and Sports games (with Puzzle games as well unless there is a narration).

I actually think that you should be able to apply every criteria to every game, and not change the criteria =) isn't it a bit of cheating to not uphold racing games to the same standards as every other game? ;)

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.
