Forums - Microsoft - Left 4 Dead gets a 9.5

Well no one at all should be shocked by this, Valve are simply great developers however do think they are being rather cheap and not upgrading the dates engine.



Around the Network

The best part is that from my experience in the demo the PC version is even better. GOTY right there.

Excellent, L4D is another great shooter for gamers this holiday.

 

 

I May be mistaken zen, but i saw a topic you made not to long ago stating "Reviews by Offical gaming websites dont matter" or something like that... so... lol wut?

 

well, in his opinion they don't matter, but it doesn't mean the game won't be good. He has probably already done some of his own research on it or something.

Uh-huh... Sorry bout that then, i just found it weird he brought up such a topic around the time the PS3 was getting back-to-back tripe A's an all so... :P

I also made this thread:

http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=47859

Here's what we got:

A lot of PS3 fans trying to discredit me, by tracking my posts, and hoping I don't write "IMO" or "reviews don't matter, fyi" in every post. Everytime I come up with the same answer, so listen up:

If I say a game is great in a thread that also has a numerical score in it, I'm might not be referring to the number. In fact, I'm usually referring to the written review(words and opinions of people I trust, not numbers). In this case I wasn't, allow me to explain:

 

Let me get one thing straight. I think that I know more about most games, and I also think that I have better taste than about 99.999% of people on this forum.

I didn't need to watch that review, to know Valve games are great.

I do, however, need you to watch the review, so you can work it out in your mind, for yourself.

I can't tell you how everything is, your mind won't allow it. You have free will, stubborn-ness, and angst. You're a human.

Therefore, I must guide you to the truth, without you realizing it.

By saying the game is great, I'm making a mental suggestion. Backing it up with a numerical review(which I didn't actually do in this case), doesn't mean I care about the review, it means that most people do.

I told you all that this game was great, months, weeks, days, and hours ago. I was right, I knew I was, and everyone else should have known it as well. This doesn't prove I'm right. My opinion can't be right. However, it's right. Paradox.

I'm simply repeating that opinion:

L4D is another great shooter for gamers this holiday. Duh.

Who needs a review to tell them that? I certainly don't. Apparently the vast majority of people here do though, but I digress.

Just becuase you don't understand WHY I know something, doesn't mean that you shouldn't accept that I do actually know it. I ponder how many times such things must happen before I'm finally trusted, then I realize that most people hope I'm wrong. No matter how thin the chances are that I am. I'm usually not. Bet that I am, is a suckers bet.

 

If people didn't misunderstand me, I wouldn't be brilliant.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

You really don't keep up with a lot of gaming news, do you?

Thats pretty deep there buddy, a lil pride in that text but whatever.

Alright then if thats the way you roll, did ya think R2 was 9.5 material at the very least? cause i'll admit i sure as hell didn't.

You jest? of course i do, for the games i "care" about you dont expect me to know every game on the PS3/360 do you?

Only those that peak my unique interest i continue to look up info on, otherwise frankly i could careless.

I haven't completed it yet. I don't go online with my shooters, and I dislike multiplayer, so right now...no, I wouldn't give it a 9.5. Beyond that, I can't comment. The sense of scale in the game is really great though.

I think it we give Insomniac one more try, they'll come back with something really special, though. They'll use a lot of the stuff they see from forums and in the reviews, to improve their single player experience. They are a really great company when it comes to adapting.

...and being an arrogant prick is part of my charm.

Mmhmm, fair enough.

Well i get your point. turns out i just misjudged you, which now an days i rarely do when it comes to gaming sites and so forth.

Apoligies buddy, by the way is R2 worth it's 60 dollar price tag, or no?

You seem to have a solid opinion on things so...
