Dont create threads if you are going to get upset when people remembers you to update it.

If you are not pleased with the score that the game received, next time create the review thread AFTER the embargo.

Just sayin

Wasn't upset, it's just interesting that you care so much about the score of a game you don't own and never will. Very interesting (and transparent). And the word you're looking for is remind, not remembers. 

I suggest a hobby though. Knitting is pretty fun.

P.S. The score is alright with me. I give the game a 7/10.

As long as the thread is in my buddy, i will be here with you bro!

Just dont get upset next time when i remind you to change the score again.

Thanks for the suggestion

This game is probably going to stain Platinum Games record just like The Legend of Korra ...

It's amusing how Star Fox Guard did better with the reviewers in spite of the fact that it's an irrelevant tower defense spin-off game ...

You do like metacrtic is anything to go by, like i said so many times metacritic is biased towards japanese games, no famitsu in the review score etc.

Seems nintendo games are threaded now like any nieche japanese games if its not called zelda.

Metacritic is indeed biased against japanese games ... 

It's no wonder 4 of the top 10 highest rated games are japanese developed like Zelda: Ocarina of Time, SoulCalibur, Super Mario galaxy 1 & 2 but let's not forget about the 2 other japanese published titles like Perfect Dark or Metroid Prime ... 

Oops ... /sarcasm

Its from a time when japanese games were quite dominand dueto Gaming being not as big as it is today. Japanese games still can hit high review scores on metacritic see MGS5, Bloodborne, Dark Souls 3 etc. But most of these games are household names and Big Budget titles. 

When was the last time a japanese nieche title or an unkown IP got high meta score of even 85 or 90? It happens with so many western indies now, why cant it happen with japanese indie/nieche devolopers? 

Look at Digimon Cyber Sleuth, this game has the highest user score on metacrtic for a PS4 game. How can it be only 75? This game easily deserves a 90 if indies like giana systers get an 80 or 90.

They are not the only poor games made by Platinum. Madworld, Anarchy Reigns, Transformers: Devastation, TMNT, Platinum makes poor games from time to time. But they are capable of making good games like Bayonetta and MGR, but they don't put the same level of effort in each of their games. You can't blindly buy a game from Platinum thinking it would be great. It could be, but it may not be as well.



I just finished main missions and I have to say its pretty solid game, and actually great StarFox game.I played to through game and didn't looked at all at gamepad because I changed point of view between 1st and 3rd point of view on TV. Controls were not problem and if you dont like motion controls you can use it at minimum.

Indeed you did. I don't own this game, or a Wii-U, but Jim Sterling and his wildly out of step 2/10 review score is what put it at 69. 2/10 should be reserved for unplayable, broken trash. IDK if that's worth mentioning. His review seems harsh.

Yeah I dont think 2/10 sounds fair at all. If the game is adequate it shoudnt score anything less than 5/10. I hated Eurogamers review of Mafia 2 getting a 4/10... to me 4/10 means a game that is rubbish, and it really wasnt. 2/10 sounds like it should be unshippable...

I liked Mafia 2 well enough. Had fun with it in spite of it's flaws. 4/10 is pretty low.
