Forums - Nintendo - IGN Reviews Animal Crossing: City Folk--- 7.5

I may be wrong about this but I don't think the original Animal Crossing got rave reviews. It was Nintendos first foray into the Seinfeld game model, a game about nothing. My son has 3 or 4 friends that play the DS game and they seem to be enamored with it. It will sell really well I am sure and the reviews won't matter much.

So i watched 2hrs feed of this on game something.com. I dont get it but is the in game clock realy the only reason to buy this game? Flowers and weeds grow, anything else? Never played it but willing to bet money its got more to it than that, Just dont know what that is



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

Thats really too harsh of IGN give this game lower than 8.0. So COD: WAW was better than this game? because this is what IGN is implying...

Are you saying WaW can't be better than this ''remake?''

o_O *runs*

 

Ermmh... MK Wii is also a remake of other Mario Kart games only with bikes and miis and it is online even you can just play it without online. So how MK Wii have higher score than this one?

 

because MK Wii has at least has imroved graphics and presentation, the two departments this game got bad score for, AC on the other hand looks just like the GC version with online features.

Because Mario Kart Wii actually brought something new to the table? Just saying.

 

LIKE WHAT? You're not sure about that arent you?

@coasterlove----> So... what genre this kind of game falls into? Because they must base their reviews on other games that is on this genre. And I thought this is one of a kind? Unless you're talking about The Sims LOL... So theyre based this game in terms of graphics, and I thought graphics isnt important...



end of core gaming days prediction:

 

E3 2006-The beginning of the end. Wii introduced

 

E3 2008- Armageddon. Wii motion plus introduced. Wii Music. Reggie says Animal crossing was a core game. Massive disappointment. many Wii core gamers selling their Wii.

YOU SURE? So GC graphics isnt enough for you? And I thought graphics wasnt important no wonder COD 3 even a port of the PS2 version gives a score of 7.7 YES... 7.7 Can you believe that?!! O_o

You said it yourself:

Bikes, Mii integration, ''real'' online for the series, and let's not forget the Wii Wheel. I don't really like how the game engine changed in the past few years, but the game is still very addictive with four player split-screen (and online now). Also, a competitive game is more easy to rate higher because it has more replay value than any other single player game out there (or so it seems nowadays). One last thing, let's not forget the Mario Kart Channel and all the extra things you can do with it.

It's clearly a ''Wii game,'' and exploits all the features of it.



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

So for the other 20 million Wii owners that have NEVER played this before (me included) it's a 9.5 ?

so what if graphics is not big deal to me? is it too much to ask for wii game to look like a wii game? and AC was suppost to be N64 game and the GC version was just upgraded N64 game with N64 graphics, and this game still has those graphics and wii can do much better than that
