But you just brought up content and changes as an excuse....

A game should always work at launch, regardless of how much content it has.


Driveclub isn't even my contendor for PS4 game this generation. It's just a great example of the flawed logic. 

Driveclub is now a fantastic racer! A person new to the game is only going to see the great game it is now. If changes to one game count, they all count. That's the Protendo way.

I wouldn't have a problem with reviewers updating their score (unless they do it selectively).

Only for free dlc of course.

This gen sucks.  All three consoles combined don't even equal up to the fun I was having with my 360 in 2007 ( when I entered the 7 th gen).  Boo!  And boo Splatoon.  It was fun for a couple of weeks but then I got bored.


Well, what consoles do you own and mainly play? Nintendo Wii U seems to be a pretty good game console.

All of them.  WiiU is probably my overall favorite but it's getting the least play in the past month or so.  Whatever has the " hot game of the moment " gets my attention.  They all get a turn.

Oh, which one are you playing the most usually? I actually having way more fun with the Wii U alone than I did with the 360 at the begining of it's life cycle.

A game with metacritic of 81 being game of generation?

Are you serious?


Not in my book, the fact that splatoon is not universally accepted by at least 90% of reviewers is not game of the generation material. Games adored by the vast majority like bayonetta 2, smash bros wii u, and blood borne are way better contestants for game of the generation, and even they fall short of previous contenders such as uncharted 2, mario galaxy, ocarina of time, gta v, metroid prime, etc.

It's soon to tell man... there's no Project Diva next gen version out yet.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

not GOTG, but "So fresh, unique, innovative, very fun and addictive game." is clearly true, and probably the GOTG wont be as fresh, unique, innovative, very fun and addictive game as splatoon.

Every critic would seem to agree with me. Gta5 remaster is still the best reviewed game this gen. Lol. 

You mean the critics that get paid advertisement money from the same game publishers they're reviewing games on? Yeah, as a historian that would be a source I'd throw in the garbage bin right away.

Have you ever met a person that likes GTA IV? I know I haven't. And that game has 98% on metacritic or something lol.

You say the people here should play other games than just Nintendo, perhaps you should play something other than violent open world games.

Oh I didn't know you were against violence. I'm sorry. Too bad for you as you're missing out on probably 90% of games.  

 

I'm actually very unbiased. I do play Nintendo games. That way I can form an opinion that isn't biased unlike yourself. And I play all types of games. So you didn't really have an argument there. 



Currently own:

 

  • Ps4

 

Currently playing: Witcher 3, Walking Dead S1/2, GTA5, Dying Light, Tomb Raider Remaster, MGS Ground Zeros

The mistake most people are making when commenting in this thread is going under the assumption that OP thinks it will be GOTG. OP clearly states that he would put it in his personal GOTG list. Saying "no" to that is misunderstanding the point of the thread. OP simply wants other people who have played the game to share if they had any similar experiences, not if they think it would be nominated for GOTG.

The only thing I would say is that the title is misleading in that way, but otherwise the OP makes it very clear what he means.
