Forums - Nintendo - Lostwinds suck Ass, FFCC too. According to Gamespot.

Gamespot hasn't been completely reputable since 2/3 of the way through the last generation.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

Most of the people who could actually "write" a decent review have left GS.

I don't know guys, I don't think you need to get worked up over this... If you like it, who cares what others think.

LostWinds is the only game I played on Wiiware and the 2 reviews I read were 8.5 frmom IGN and 5.5 from Gamespot.

Both missed the mark as the game is a perfect 7...not more, not less.

Why isn't anyone pissed about the IGN review giving it more than it deserves? lol...

Gamerankings scores

FFCC 76%
Lost Winds 82%

And both of these include the Gamespot reviews with only five and four total reviews respectively. Thus, it is safe to say that Gamespot's opinion is in the minority.

For the other WiiWare games:

Defend Your Castle 76% (n=4)
Pop 70% (n=2)
TV Show King 64% (n=1)
VIP Blackjack 53% (n=2)

I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.

Don't worry. We just have to all contribute a dollar and buy better reviews from gamespot. That is what microsoft does.

Damn, too bad that small dev studios dont have the amount of money to buy a good review from GS, but on the positive side, the site is sinking so low, its turning into the worst video game site available.

Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

Gamespot??? Isnt that the obscure fanboy site that gave Twilight Princess an 8.8? Or is it the site that fires Editiors becuase they give a game that is bankrolling their laughable operation a low score?

I do not have any WiiWare games yet, but don't listen to GameSpot.
Anyway, they blamed LostWinds music... so yeah... thats one of the things I hear people raving about, how its so calming and nice.

Either way, GS are fanboys.

5.5... its only 10 freaking dollars D:



 

I own all of lastgen systems as of October 2008. (Finally got a Dreamcast)

I own every currentgen system except PS3.

 They aren't fanboys. They are money boys. They only care about the bribes microsoft, and others give them.
