I read the 8.7 review, and it isn't bad really.

He calls it the best looking game on the system, yet he only gives is a 9 for visuals? The best looking game on the system is the very definition of what should qualify as a 10, he's basically taking a point off for the game being on a console that doesn't output HD, and that's incredibly stupid if you ask me. It's like taking a point off for every PS3/360 game because they still use the old fashioned controller that forces you to keep your hands uncomfortably together. He also praises the audio and creative control, probably the game's two strongest areas, but rates them both as 8.

There are things that aren't perfect with Galaxy, but that site is just trying to get attention by being the one to give it the lowest rating.

 

(edit: forget everything good I said about the previous site, I just realised they gave Galaxy the same rating as Mercury Meltdown. what a shitload of fuck.)

You should read the Metroid Prime 3 review on that site. They gave MP3 a 6 for visuals XD

Hey, the Game Almighty 8.7 review just got removed off of Metacritic!

That's... really cool, actually.

And 2 new 100 reviews were put in its place. Boo yah!!!



So say we all, yo.

My emergency stupid system went off and autovented the last 5 seconds of pure stupid that I experienced. What were you talking about again? 



There is no such thing as a console war. This is the first step to game design.

Wait, Metacritic actually counted that review for a couple minutes?!?!? It's listed at GameRankings, but not bold so they're not counting it. I've never heard of them and they're obviously full of shit.

Honestly, I've never understood this whole Ocarina vs. FF7 as the greatest game of all time argument that everybody has. I think both games are viewed with oodles of nostalgia because they were the first 3-D outings of their respective franchises.

I mean, it seems fairly obvious that the greatest game of all time was Super Mario Bros. 3 and Galaxy just passed it.

Galaxy is a 98 at MetaCritic, and the last game to get a 98 was Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2. Um... lolwut? You expect me to believe that those 2 games have equal levels of fun to be had and that they're tied for 2nd best game of all time? I would love to find a real human who believes that, and then smack his face off.

All reviewers should be shot and buried somewhere. All of them are embarrassments. At least Yahtzee is consistent in hating every single game ever but Portal and Psychonauts. He has a soul.

I expected it would move 0.2 - 0.3 because gamerankings was really slow in updating lately. But still a 0.4 increase not even in Johnlucas wildest dreams! Way to go! The Wii has now the best videogame in history ever.
