Everything i posted was accurate and on point, your retort however...

Lmao, your arguments are beyond stupid.

Personal insults such as this are the hallmark of a weak argument, and against forum rules, this will be reported.

First of all, metacritic user scores for Nintendo games are often very accurate (the average of them I mean). Second of all, did you even read anything in this thread? It's not about whether or not GTA is a better game or not than SSB, it's about remakes of one year old games scoring higher.
|
There is nothing special about "nintendo" user scores, all games on all systems suffer from artifically high and artifically low reviews, don't act like they don't.
|
Third of all, did you read some of the metaceritic "professional" reviews? Some of them are more laughable than the user reviews! Hence why there's currently a popular meme in existence about games having too much water.
|
A popular meme spawned off of a single review, and what of the other 30+? a single reviewers impact to the overall meta is very low.
|
And story in a Zelda game? Have you ever even played a single Zelda game? No one cares about the story, it's practically non-existant. There's a thing called watching/reading reviews and let's plays of games. I don't need to have played GTA V to know what the story is about. Just like I don't need to have played Sonic 06 to know how horrible that story is.
|
I'm the type of person to read the dialog of a game and explore it to exhaustion, if you think Zelda games lack story you are clearly the skip all text and cutscene and sprint to the endgame type, that's your fault not mine.
|
Clearly the people actually playing DK: TF enjoyed it more than the critics, so what does that tell you about these so called "professional" reviews who's opinion you seem to think are facts? Just because a game has a higher score on metacritic doesn't mean the gaming community thinks the same. When the difference is as small as 2-3% it matters even less.
|
And clearly there are people who bought DK:TF and hated it since used copies were up on ebay litterally the next day, and have been since, that however, just like instances of people "enjoying it" is simply a case by case occurance, just like "well my friend is buying x console" or "well my local store sold out of y console", its isolated, and not representitive of the larger userbase/populace.
|
There's a huge difference between what critics think of a game and what the average gaming community thinks of something. Critics can be bought off as well which reflects a lot of metacritic review scores.
|
Just as likely as critics being bought of, infact more so, is the supporters of a game being overly biased towards it or the particular system it is on, and if you frequent Nintendo fansites/forums that effect will be even more pronounced, again, you will see things based on the situations you place yourself in, that isnt reflective of the general populace.
|
I don't care if people think GTA V is better than SSB4, that's a perfectly ok opinion to have. And since I haven't played both games how can I comment on it? What I find ridiculous is a one year old remake getting such high reviews. Why on earth would I want a remake of Super Mario 3D World for example? The game came out a year ago.
|
Clearly you do care enough to be so offended by it, as to be overly critical about it purely based on it being "a year old game", wether its a year old game or a ten year old game, the fact of the matter is, enough effort, changes and upgrades were made for it to be seen as a worthwhile purchase and has been scored as such.
The game offers more on every level and that is simply the reason for the high score.
