Forums - Nintendo - DKC: Tropical Freeze Review Thread (81 on metacritic)

Where is Somini @?

Itz war!!!!!

Anyway i hope this game goes to a 85, but 80+ is still good, cant believe butthurt reviewers lol. Some are obvious thatthey wanted metroid so wat? They lower this game score? FAILLLLLLLL LOLOLOLOL



Around the Network

The reviews that review it for what it is seem to praise it where the reviews that review it for what it isn't (namely, Metroid or something "new") seem to complain

Oh well...as most of these reviews have stated (even the not so great ones), this game is better than DKCR, aka the best platformer of last gen...so I am pretty confident that this will be my favorite platformer this gen too



Overall of 82 is pretty good so far.

Which site included not being Metroid as part of their criteria?



I was expecting higher, but not surprising with all the Nintendo bashing. Ninty just can't release a game w/o being trashed by some morons for being a franchise that's been done before.

Aside from that endless and senseless critisism, alot of ppl seem to praise the game for it's difficulty while other are taking away pts for being to hard (cry baby much)? These are the ppl who blame Ninty for making kid games but complain when a game is hard. Personnaly I thought Rayman Legends was way to easy, I 100%ed that game in a week.

Others are praising it for the lenghty boss fights that makes all bosses feel somewhat like a last boss, while others are saying they are to long. I even read one reviewer say that bosses should be more like mario, short (3hits and they are dead?! really?!)

Alot of ppl are saying it looks beautifull, gamespot (and others) said it looked bland. I'm sorry, I don't need to play the game to realise that it's a load of bullshit, the game looks beautifull.

Nowgamer all they did was trash the gameplay for being familiar (again, Ninty will never please these guys unless they make a DK fps), but at the end they gave sound and longetivity a 7/10 w/o explaination... The music has been praised by many and I LOVED every music in every trailers so far. As for the longetivity, everyone says they are tons of collectibles that are really hard to get. Therefor, as long as these two things has no explanation in the review I call bullshit, the reviewer was probably fixated into giving the game a 7, that's why.

Overall, I'm sure the game is great, just disapointed with what the gaming media has become.

It's doing pretty good on meta. I'm sure people will bitch and moan it isn't 90+, but anything 80+ warrants a day one purchase in my book.

It is a great addition to the Wii U and honestly one of the few Wii U i would purchase if I had one, along with X and Smash.

Bro, your bias is showing.

Hmmm >_>



I predict that the Wii U will sell a total of 18 million units in its lifetime. 

The NX will be a 900p machine

Some reviewers seem to be voicing their general opinion of Nintendo in the review, rather than actually reviewing the game. Games journalism is a joke.

This exactly!
