They don't have the same opinion as me = they suck. Thanks for the heads up.

No, when someone demonstrates a poor ability to operate a game, they suck at it.

The problem you're having is that you're speaking English, not gobbledygook. You're not going to be understood by someone who doesn't speak English which, as established, is a language he has difficulty understanding. Best to just smile and nod, smile and nod.

I understand people giving my favorite games a 7, even if they don't agree or understand why I think said games are great. Some people just won't like the way it controls, and it's fine.

People get their panties in a bunch for everything

No, you didn't. That doesn't apply to me. You said "your lot gives a 9-10 score to those games before they're even out."

Wonderful 101 has looked like a 7/10 game to me from the start, so I actually think less of it than the IGN reviewer.

Would you consider 7/10 to be very high quality?

Above average, but not great.

Just wondering, because I remember seeing this:

I believe in honesty, civility, generosity, practicality, and impartiality.

Post-trailer high. ;)

After a day or so my expectations returned to previous levels. (They fluctuated between 6/10 and 8/10)

Ah. Can't say that hasn't happened to me. :P

60%

Gonna drag the Meta-rating down a bit.

Edit: http://metro.co.uk/2013/08/19/the-wonderful-101-review-mighty-morphin-3929031/

There is a 70% on Metacritic too.

 

Personally I think the game looks great, but the amount of kneejerking and bile here because IGN gave it a score a few % lower than the average is insane.

My hype levels read like one of those squiggly line seismographs, haha. 

See trailer? Hype skyrockets. No new updates for a month? Hype plummets. Gameplay doesn't look quite like you imagined? Drop. Gameplay looks better than expected or shows awesome new feature? Rise. XD

That's pretty much my situation with Super Mario 3D World, Killzone Shadowfall, Knack and Ryse.

Man this game looks embarassingly childish. How could I not be ashamed to play it in public?

It looks cool though... something to play locked in my room, alone.

That's how most teens act when they are in puberty. Never understood this line of thought.


if its not M rated its immature :P

This, definitely. Someone please throw these kids a Battletoads cartridge so we can talk what is what.

I'm the same with Watch Dogs.

I have no clue where a lot of games will eventually end up on my 1-10 scale. But it's kinda more fun not knowing in a way! XD
