Gamesmaster have given the game 97/100.
OMG hatmoza posting in a Nintendo thread. Further signals that the world is indeed coming to an end.
Some of my favorite games get low-average scores. Don't let the lousy gaming journalism get to your head and just play it if you interested damn it!
Remember all those awful reviews RE6 got a while back -well... come closer... *whispers* the game is actually okay!.

Okay, no more joking. You put quotation marks around "hardcore", so I feel compelled to take you more seriously. Now, Retro Studios would be a fine candidate for making games for people who don't normally like games Nintendo, but they've positioned themselves as a developer existing only to please Nintendo diehards. The solution might be to buy some talented studios... or do what Microsoft and Sony has done - cultivate partnerships with third-parties. It's something Nintendo has been doing more of lately, and it's a trend that needs to continue. Every deal is a blow to a competition, and a potential wave of "hardcore" cash. I don't think there's anything Nintendo can do to become the patron saint of dedicated gamerdom at this point, but chipping away at the issue is better than avoiding it. |
LOL, yeah, I always do, it's such a stupid term, but for the sake of easier conversation I use both "hardcore" and "casual" (always with quotations off course).
As for going after PS360 crowd (though I disagree with your classification of them), if Nintendo is really serious about it, buying some studios or making new ones that will develop some big new IP that is more in line with PS360 1st and 2nd party offerings would be, in my opinion, necessary move - relying solely on 3rd parties to make WiiU appealing to "hardcore" can go only so far, specially since future multiplats will look better on NextBox/PS4, and we all know how most of "hardcore" feel about "graphix". Does Ninty really needs this I can't say, but it seems they feel they do, so havind something like N64 Golden Eye again would be nice to see after so many years.
what 4.5?, i don't see shit in that link, in fact i went on gamespot.com and i couldn't find a zombiU review...
Who still believes Gamespot? Despite being angry at WiiU for Bayonetta2 all the content Ninja Gaiden 3 is getting, I have to admit, for having played it, that ZombiU seems quite awesome (especially for its innovative gameplay).
I canceled my ZombiU game and preoredered a different game instead. Ill get it later if it gets good reviews

Ouch!
So we got two low scores (Gameinformer and Gamespot), one in the middle (Edge) and one high score (ONM)..
Eurogamer just gave it a 9/10.
What is going on?
