RolStoppable said: The Gamespot reviewer probably didn't like it, because the A, B, X, Y buttons were in the wrong place on the controller. It must have been hard for him to play the game at all. |
Sometimes I can't tell how serious you are being. Then I realize that regardless of your seriousness, you're probably right. Then I get sad.
Love and tolerate.

OK I guess I have to take your word on that. As for me, I get scared and anxious playing scary games. I think that's the point of them. Maybe we should just agree to disagree, because I don't think we're making much forward progress here. |
Yeah, we agree to disagree, but still, let me ask you something kind of "off-topic"; how can you be scared of something you know is not real? It really intrigues me. I mean, you may be surprised of certain event, but to be scared? As a child sure, most "scary" things are scary, but when you grow up and you realize that stuff is not real; every game and movie that attempts to be scary it just something funny, that can surprise you sometimes or maybe end up being a bit repulsive depending on how they are pretending to cause fear. At least for me that is.
No. if i am not mistaken, they were mad about the controls. They could not figured out how the motions plus works in SS. For that reason they give a 6. Then other reviews start to pop out, and they realize they were wrong with the controls. They were the one using it wrong. Then they change the score. My point is they just play the game with close mind, meaning they were prepared to give thte game a bad score before even try it. It is like when i dont want to go to schoool, i dont care what it in the school i am not going to enjoy it or whatever.
kanageddaamen said: Yeah, it was a pretty awful review. The guy seems to be looking for "Call of Duty: Zombies" The last line sums it up nicely: "ZombiU could have been an enjoyable action game..." If it was an action game and not a survival horror game. Also, some things don't make sense "corridors are tight, making it hard to run away, and zombies have no trouble keeping up with you" and then "Zombies pose no real threat" Huh? I am still picking it up |
This.
Why did I just waste my time watching this review? It was pretty painful to watch.
Repetition is always a terrible thing for any new IP, look at AC 1. 6-7 is probably more representative of what this game will be if that is the case, 4.5 is pretty ridiculous in this day and age where everything is 8+ or else it's considered a failure.
Well, chalk up yet another third party failure on a Nintendo console. If I was Nintendo at this point, I would simply give up on third parties, expand my company to create more games, and buy out more 2nd party studios. At the very least, they need to return to the tight quality standard they had in the NES days, where companies were limited to the amount of games they released for the console and Nintendo had to oversee production closely to make sure it was up to the standard.
Though I'm curious to know what their exact beef with this game is.. I mean, I've seen extensive footage of it, and there doesn't look like there is anything particularly wrong that jumps out at you. Looks fun and innovative, graphics have gotten much prettier, controls don't seem to be an issue. Seems like they really nailed the survival horror formula, far more than Resident Evil does nowadays..
I smell bias.
Hilarity ensues on Gamespot forums. Dying.

Quoted: Are you guys kidding me? Do you think this review is real? This is some phoney review set up by a fictitious poster. m.gamespot? Shame on you and shame on Gamefaqs for not deleting this libelous topic. Go to official Gamespot.com site. There is NO Zombi U review at all. I mean, really guys? You are sucked into this?
Hehehoho
Having watched the review I don't think there is anything particularly wrong with the game, it's just extremely boring and predictable. A 4.5 sounds harsh but that's only because of inflated review scores nowadays. I don't see many people having much fun with ZombiU and that's ultimately the most important for a game.

I agree, that should be one of their priorities.
Are they doing anything about it?
