From either dodgy press events, claims reviews are fake and embargo'ing the sponsored reviews until after the game has launched I think even the most care free of gamer will have alarm bells on about that game already. I could be wrong, but are there really people with GTA5 lvls of excitement for watchdogs expecting it to be a 95% game on metacritic? I really doubt there are. I guess my real bet for what game would be a disappointment to fans would have to sit with Smash Bros for Wii-U, I think a lot of people are hoping that will be the system seller for the Wii-U and after the let down that was Brawl to the tourney community I would think those players would be slow to drop the cost of a Wii-U just to be let down again by another casual fighter ruined by things like tripping and items you can't turn off. |
Sakurai has shown nothing if not commitment to acknowledging the needs of the tournament crowd, and balancing them against the needs of the many of us who have no interest in tournament-style play. The tourney crowd should be quite satisfied with the new game (no more tripping, final destination versions of all stages), while we on the "For Fun" side also get what we want.

Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
