Fuck it. If they truncated, whatever. If they though OoT wasn't a 10, then that's their choice. I would like to see a proper explanation of what they did.
Not asking for a link. I'm going to look it up.
Although it's kind of funny how most of those defending this seemed to be the ones agreeing that OoT shouldn't have been on top. I could be wrong though. I just notice I'm only getting arguments from a few of you.
Also, right or wrong. cubed3 had lousy timing in making this adjustment. It is going to look suspicious simply because of when they did it. |
Sir you continue to just dig your own grave further. You won't win this so stop arguing. It's over. I'm sure OoT will have more retro reviews added in the years to either hurt of help it's score. In all honesty we should all think OoT shouldn't be on top. This shouldn't even be debateable. There are so many more influential games that aren't even represented on Gamerankings it's ridiculous. The data is missing so much that anything that can be gathered from Gamerankings should only be based on a game by game basis. Judging this list like it represents the best games of all time is ludicrous, because I don't see Tetris, Super Mario Bros., Final Fantasy, The Legend of Zelda, Street Fighter II, Pong, Pac Man, Sim City or Space Invaders on this list and all are more influential and better represent the greatest games of all time than the Ocarina of Time and GTA IV do. |
BZzzzZZzzzT Sorry but no, you can argue that OoT is not "the best" game ever if you'd like but you're just wrong if you think there are more than a handful of games that even deserve to be mentioned in the same breath. OoT is high on the list for influential games, best games, etc...it was and is a classic masterpiece by even the most frugal standards. |
Don't get me wrong. Ocarina belongs somewhere in the top 10 of all time, top 15 at absolute worst, but for it to be #1 would cheapen every game that came along that created the blueprint for what got us to Ocarina. Every game I mentioned I believe is more influential and have iconic designs that have aged gracefully and all of them deserve a spot above Ocarina. Mario 64 I believe is a better game than Super Mario Bros. now, but you don't get to Mario 64 without creating the grand daddy of modern videogaming. Actually, I'll change my statement. Only Super Mario Bros. belongs on top. Everything else is secondary. A game being a masterpiece does not mean it automatically gets placement near the top of all games ever released, because there are more than a few masterpieces.
