Sad day. No more 1up show, or 1up yours. As for the stuff about there Wii game reviews. Not everyone has to like it. Reviews are a personal opinion after all

 

Repeat: They gave a game a 4.5 for being hard.  They literally said that the game's difficulty reduced its' score by about half, and yet they have the balls to give Ninja Gaiden high marks.



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

Hmm... I'm not exactly sure how to formulate this... and it's five in the morning where I am after a sleepless night, so I won't make an attempt.

Except to say this:  I think that reviews in a public forum are something more than just "personal opinion."

1up's technically still there, but it's really in name only

Not that I have much respect for them due to how they've treated the Wii.

They've treated the Wii damned well. Too well, if you ask me. Wii Music got the same score as MGS4, and that's just wrong.

I'm glad to see them go. Soulcalibur IV was not an A, Wii Music was not an A-, and Resistance 2 was not a B+!

As for EGM...meh. Their rating system is too complicated, never really liked them.

Besides, 1UP still exists but, with luck, they will be changing their entire editorial staff.

QQ more. The review of Wii Music was done just the way it should have been done, and PLEASE, MGS4 wasa a shitty movie with some good gameplay during the intermissions, nothing spectacular.

All the great people that were fired is only worsened by the fact that pumpkin-headed, tub-o-guts moron David Ellis was retained.

Fanboys be damn, I loved 1up and preferred their reviews more than anyone else. They were not afraid to call BS to a game, no matter how popular or unpopular it was. It wasn't about the numbers, it was about the funny you were going to have with the game or the flaws that makes the game unplayable... I don't have time or money to waste on crap that I won't play because it was "leet" for a moment. Too many times, especially nowadays, editors rush out to post a review to get page clicks. Then there are people who play the game, reflect on it and then give you what they feel worked and didn't. That was 1up, and they will be missed...

Well at least there is still Giant Bomb...



I'm just saying...
