Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Ocarina back on top

I love both games a great deal, and while neither is my favourite game of all time (that honour goes to the first Kingdom Hearts), I strongly believe that Zelda deserves the top spot. This was a game that revolutionized the industry, and upped the immersion level more radically than anything that's been released since.



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

I hate to break it to you people. Gamerankings is owned by Nintendo. So we have the biased reviews. Games like OoT that have been passed in gameplay and graphics by newer Zelda games, remains on top. Very odd a 10 year old game is on top of the rankings. Gamerankings is Rigged. confirmed.

Super Mario Galaxy, Zelda Twilight Princess, Super Mario 64. Are all better games than OoT.

You just made absolutely zero sense.  If it was owned by Nintendo, what problem would they have putting any of those games on top?

 Those three games are all owned by Nintendo. But I believe every one of those games is better than OoT.

At this rate they should discard all the scores less than 100% for OoT. Damn it just say its average review score is 100%. Now GTA IV averages should do the exact same any scores less than 100% should be removed.

At end of the day GTA IV PS3 = 100%, GTA IV 360 = 100%, OoT NES = 100%. All three games have same exact 100% scores IMO we live in happy socialist world.

OoT was it on the Nintendo Entertainment System? Wow the first Zelda game has been number one for all 25 years.

I really hope that was sarcastic.

I have no idea when OoT was released. Good news: Mass suicide of Nintendo fans has been avoided with OoT temporarily back on top. How long will it last? Tick Tock Tick Tock. A few days? A few months? A few years?

 


 Did you say years please no, this chungy piece of crap does not deserve to have the top spot.

GTAIV still on top 




sleepwaking at least  he is keeping us on our feet while he is tripping on his own.

PS360 fans are not happy with this news. Gamerankings has zero credibility. Review scores go missing just to boost the OoT scores.

Nintendo is winning everything PS3 fans were celebrating when GTA IV (PS3) was on top. Than 360 fans were celebrating when GTA IV(360) was on top. Gamerankings is rigged. confirmed. I was celebrating hearing of the fall of OoT. It is back on top? WTF? It should be deleted from the database it is a very old game, 10 year old game.


Yeah, last month it wasn't rigged yet. But then even the reflection of a by hype corrupted video game journalism had to admit Ocarina of Time was the greatest game ever. That's how good it is. 

And yeah, it should be deleted, just like that faggy FFVII and Metal Gear Solid those games are old, so they suck because ''theyz dont hav teh graffix''. 

Sony fanboys are you are understandable. The market has puked you out over the last couple of years, first by kicking your handheld out of destroying Nintendo's final stand, then by kicking your console in the nuts. Then the industry pulled a very, very dirty trick on you. While having major marketing and hyping, GTA IV went out to be the highest ranking game of all time, it gave the Sony fanboys a new thing to be proud about. At last, something positive happened to them.

But no.

OoT grabbed back the top spot again, even on the, now universally accepted to be rigged, Gamerankings. Now Sony(and Microsoft fanboys), are in despair and will start to have the follow arguments, Sacred Cows in Malstroms words:

1. Ocarina of Time isn't the best game ever, it has too little reviews to be taken seriously.

2. Old games just suck, because, well... (I can't say because the graphics suck, then I would be flamed...) the gameplay was inferior back then, and it is crap now!

The counterargument for 1 is that the balance is the same for both games now. While Ocarina of Time got reviews that were all good, GTA IV got some that were a overrating it, and some clearly underrating it. This is due to the hyping of the game. If it wouldn't have received such a massive hype, than the game would've been scoring way more egal. 

And the ''old games don't count'' thing doesn't work, we should only count the newest games if that was the case. And if old games are really all surpassed just by gameplay evolution, then how come Final Fantasy VII is seen as the greatest one in the series by a LOT of people? That game has had 5, almost 6 ''main'' succesors, and a hell of a lot more ''spin-off'' succesors.

And why do we use averages? Right, so it doesn't matter how many reviews a game gets, it's just so that we can see which one has done the best relatively

But don't be mad, Sony fanboy. I know how it feels to lose such a needless, useless, meaningless  thing as the gamerankings-top. After all, on the Zelda-level, people can hardly call me anything but a timeline theorist, a specialist, and a passionate Zelda-fanboy. I'm not a Nintendo fanboy anymore, but I AM a Zelda fanboy!!!

 PS: ''At end of the day GTA IV PS3 = 100%, GTA IV 360 = 100%, OoT NES = 100%. All three games have same exact 100% scores IMO we live in happy socialist world.''

If this would be a happy socialist dictatorship, Super Mario Bros. on the NES would be on top. If you don't get this, look it up. For normal socialist democratic worlds, well, there's Ocarina of Time, and you should REALLY play it some time.

Now for the other Zelda fanboys here:

Glad to see the greatest thing on earth made by human hands back on top of even the Gamernakings. Welcome back, my Ocarina friend!

 Nah, I think Gamerankings got owned by Nintendo rather than being owned by them.
