Even though it was a good game, all players at the time knew the games controls were absolutely chronic. It was never deserving of that score. Also, a skating game, 97%? Its pretty much guaranteed that will never happen again or even come close. Basically, scores back then were higher than the norm because it was the first time 3D graphics ever really looked "good" and it wowed people more just on graphics alone. That kind of stuff doesn't wash now with reviewers or customers so it's much harder to hit the same scores. |
gta 3 was ground breaking. felt so fresh... and tony hawk was just sooo awesome, the gameplay, the maps, the music, awesome!
and its not harder, gta5 got realy high scores too, and the gameplay is still meh at best(but who cares)
