The original Resident Evil is at 91 on metacritic, same for the GC remake  (in gamerankings the original is a little higher but for like 0.3)



Why don't you make like a tree and get out of here?

All of those games had things taken away from them by the transition to the DS - notably the loss of analog controls for the first two and the loss of local multiplayer for the latter.

Ocarina of Time isn't losing anything and is gaining a lot - Melee-level character models are nice, but the biggest improvement is unquestionably going to be the texture resolution.

Agreed!

Why are Infamous2, Uncharted 3 and Gears in the poll. You shouldn't just throw a ton of extra answers into a poll.

As for the topic. I think OoT will get a lower rating the SkyWardSword simply because OoT has been re-released several times. On the GameCube twice on the Virtual Console. This will be the fourth version I have played and to be honest its a great game but something new and origional will be a nice change of pace and I expect as such it will be higher rated.

Now Skyward Sword will probably cut it close with OoT3D but I still think Skyward will score higher!

Depends if you're listening to a retroist (Someone who insists old games are better, possibly with an affection for true-to-the-original remakes(if that word doesn't exist, so coining it)) or if they hate old games being remade.

Overall...probably OoT 3D not on any rationale of the game itself but it seems games on handhelds tend to somehow end up rated slightly worse than similar games on consoles.

Pretty much this.

Analogue sticks were, and still are, essential for these sorts of games.

Sure, it was a great game at launch, but gaming has moved on since then, why would it get a higher score? Because of 3D? 

Now, SS could go one of two ways. It could, and most likely will be, the Galaxy of the Zelda series. It could easily be the highest rated game of all time (or around 98 with the other elite games)

Or, it could pull a failure card and only (I say "only") get around 90 on Metacritic. FTM, we know far too little to make an informed decision.

However, if I had to make a decision? OoT 3D will be just a couple of points lower, for the above reasons and reasons previously mentioned in the thread
