A lot of 9s for Mario. Its meta might settle above Halo 4's. GOTY confirmed?

I am actually surprised that so many have enjoyed it this much! I thought it would just be a little lower. So this is a pleasant surprise. That old vita game is getting some high scores. It may be really high in the end.


Fixed.

Looks around for Sony gamers....does not see any.....thanks you for the fix! ^_^


I'm only saying that because Persona 4: Golden is an updated version of a 2008 PS2 game.

It's about as "new" as Ocarina of Time 3D or Monster Hunter Tri Ultimate.

Them reviews are starting to look good for Wii U!!



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

I saw a lot more Ninja Gaiden 3 Reviews around... though can't remember the exact sites. I know one for sure was Siliconera or whatever.

Ninja Gaiden Reviews are not bad considering

IGN and gameradar gave it 3/10 for 360/Ps3 version.

As the odl saying goes no matte rhow hard you polish a turd it is still a turd.

However for Ninja Gaiden fans, I think there is signifact improvement that is worth picking the game up at a reduced price.

Colour me surprised, I fully expected this to be another Red Steel.

Totally agree. I was going to play it eventually for Xbox or PS3 anyway because I'm a completist, but with improved reviews and new features the Wii U version is the one to get.

So far all the news and reviews have been above and beyond hype levels! Things are going very well!

Red Steel had great hype and previews but once the reviews started coming in, it was a different story.  I remember IGN saying the final copy was worse than the preview version for some unknown reason.    ZombiiU (formerly Killer Freaks) seemed like another rushed for launch title from Ubisoft.    And that might still prove to be the case.   But this is a very good sign.    Regardless, I played the hell out of Red Steel (it was the only split-screen FPS for years)
