What do you mean? That these are bad reviews? To be honest the games look incredibly bad from their name alone. I mean " Puppy Palace" come on.



elnino334 on 28 February 2008

LOL just maybe those games actually deserve those scores? What did the other sites give to those same games?

Which games do you think are under rated and what would you give them?

 Clearly Kiz Sports game deserves higher mark, IGN just doesn't get casual gaming. It's an incredible games for causal gamer because my girlfriend/mother/sister/co-workers had fun playing with it.

 Sorry, I'm out of cliche

P.S. nobody got my sarcasm? :(

Hmmmmm...

I see what you did there.

Of course games like Pet Resort would get bad reviews.. and your list only shows games like that.

 My list showed every game that was reviewed on DS or Wii last 2 days, I didn't leave out anything.

 

Damn, maybe I should start a 'cult following' and get Bozon to review Kidz Basketball. lol, make him play through all 2 hours of that game and mak his life a hell again. ;)

ok sorry, am a bit dense at the moment. Having a huge userbase and low development costs really is one of the best things about the DS but it also has its drawbacks.
