LMAO

Ign = 7.4
Ign Italty= 9.5 FTW

 

Edit:  when people dont want to learn new controls or they dont give the time of day this is what happens, same could be said with Kid Icarus Uprising. New controls, critics rip on them but actually easily top 5 best games on 3ds (my favorite)


Your lot gives a 9-10 score to those games before they're even out. And when people who have actually played the game from start to finish give their opinion, and it doesn't match with that score you gave to it before even playing, you whine, complain and make all sorts of silly excuses to condemn the reviewer. That's ridiculous.

This IGN's reviewer isn't a troll. Her review is pretty balanced and she actually explains her criticism...  *sigh.



actually i can judge, cuz i played the demo, i cant give a review but i can give my experience on controls. Its different, but thats it. Its KIU all over again with CONTROLS, beside she the only one so far thats under an 8, so yeah *sigh

She's not the only reviewer mentioning issues with the controls. And besides, what if most of those issues arise in more erratic gameplay situations? Something you won't be able to judge based on the demo only.

So far a lot of the reception sounds really familiar. Hectic, unpredictable, controls giving people more trouble than they ought to... 25 chapters?

Reminds me strongly of Kid Icarus: Uprising, still for my money the best 3DS game, still easily my favorite at the very least. It makes me want W101 even more.



thank you, THIS GUY UNDERSTANDS, Its like some people cant play something new or cant adjust, it has to be R trigger to shoot and X button to reload(im just giving an ex). KIU is my favorite 3DS, personally to me this should of rocketed with at least 2mil sales! W101 i played, got adjusted in 5mins, then good to go! Reviewers need to hop off COD lmao

Why post that one review when all the other reviews are very high scores? It looks to me as if Nintendo have a hit on their hands. Now what needs happen is Nintendo fans to support it.



exactly, boutros posted the others in literally 2mins after this thread was made. If i post that one TLoU score which was 7.5(around there) i look an A** lol

Keza is a Nintendo fan... She even calls herself the biggest Nintendo fan. So I really doubt your comment about CoD applies to her... ¬_¬

I finished reading the review, and it seems like she really had trouble grasping the way the game controls, seems like something you'd have to master just like all other Platinum Games' games.

I wonder if Keza is the primary Wii U reviewer at IGN now, or whether she just did Pikmin and this because they came out in Europe first and she's British?

platinum =/= Nintendo fan... But i got you! Still it feels like the same arguement as with KIU! Best game on 3ds imo, definitely top 5 overall.

Metro GameCentral  70 
 "Insurmountable problems with the controls stop this from being another Platinum classic but it’s still a fun game, overflowing with charm and wonderfully silly action."

GamesRadar  60 
 "But it’s the clumsy, ham-fisted delivery of some sections that grates the most. One example of this when when the action is switched onto the GamePad screen, where the camera suddenly works on gyroscopic control. When this happens, the game is rendered almost unplayable and simply walking upstairs becomes a serious test of your controller skills."

This is getting silly.  If they didn't like the controls then they didn't like the controls.  Trying to paint this as meaning they don't know how to play videogames is ridiculous.



the_dengle on 18 August 2013

Like I said, this is just like Kid Icarus. Loads of reviews saying the controls are awful and that they make the game borderline unplayable. Then I get my hands on the game, have no problems with the controls, and easily dump over 50 hours into it.

That was their experience, that was my experience. It's okay that they're completely different. I can respect someone's opinion on a game they played while knowing that their experience doesn't remotely reflect on my own.
