Forums - Gaming - How Can Someone Say "Game A" Is Better Than "Game B" If THEY Never Even Played Both? O.o

I actually do try to play every game I comment about but there is such a thing as an educated opinion.



Around the Network

You would have to play every game that ever came out that year not to be a hypocrit.

You tell me. Every Nintendo fan on this site is sure The Last Of Us doesn't deserve the attention it's getting. Have you all played the game behind our backs during one of your meetings or something?


Every Nintendo Fan =/= Who you are talking about... I never once said That cuz i never played the game and its one of the most praised games of the generation.

Can you pls stop putting 1-100 people into one category. There are crazy fans from Nintendo as well as M$+Sony. Dont kno why you have to always make an attack comment!? 

 

Edit: You wont find a post from me ever stating SM3DW is better than TLoU here so that alone disproves your point (this being an example) cuz i never played the game!

Oh it's annoying. People need to stop haten Knack!

Never! 

Sidenote, Apparently one of my friends just beat it and they really enjoyed it....So I might actually end up getting it afterall. :/ 


To be honest its the game I enjoyed the most out of the launch lineup. Im biased though because I do like adventure platformers and  have not played one in a while so i really enjoyed myself.


I wasnt to found of Knack (just played the demo) but it looks good enough for a launch title and is easily a great game for the younger crowd as most of the games at launch were FPS.

Also im the same way with you! N64 had it all! Rare Died unfortunately Banjo Kazooie/Tooie was the ****!!! M$ is (if they arent already) losing out on a huge IP that can be easily a exclusive 2mil+ seller (hell maybe up to 5mil)

for GOTY though! Im saying when people compare two games and never even played another. This tends to happen with fanboys. A jrg on a Sony Console vs a Nintendo console rpg and this one is better automatically because its on my console... thats f-ing retarded imo!

Example i played MH for the first time this year, i ended up liking it alot! Then Games with similar gameplay (just same genre in general) come out for vita (ex: SS and GE2). I have no right to say SS+GE2 is the lesser game towards MH4... Cuz i never played the game. You see this alot, and it really is irritating (from all 3 sides of the fan wars).

What about every Sony fan saying that  Super Mario 3d World doesn´t deserve the praise it´s getting, without even have played the game?

The topic is not specific about Nintendo fans or Nintendo games, but gaming in general. What do you gain in putting fanboys arguments to it? 

I'm not the one who said those things. If you're looking for fanboys i suggest you look in your camp. If you're insinuating that i'm a fanboy that i'd gladly report you. Now how about making a comment that's not about personal attacks or should i mention your behaviour?

He didn't say you said those fanboy arguments. He simply questioned your motivation for unecessarily putting fanboy arguments in this topic - which is something you actually did. And while you may not have actually said those things, your post in this thread is equally as nonsensical as the fanboy arguments you refer to; since you're insinuating explicitly and falsely generalizing blame to every Nintendo fan for something that belongs to specific individuals.

Quality isn't entirely subjective. I don't have to play Aliens: Colonial Marines to say Bioshock Infinite is better, do I?


In essence, quality is subjective since the quality of a game depends upon it's ability to entertain others; and standards for entertainment are different for certain individuals. However, if you and another person can agree to a set of fundamental truths about what defines quality (games with deep gameplay mechanics are better than those with shallow mechanics, etc), then you might be able to deductively prove a game's objective quality in comparison to another. But if those axioms cannot be agreed upon, then it's just pure opinion.



you can say whatever you want but it won't hold much weight. Thats why we look at the game reviewer scores from people who HAS played both.
