Personally disliking something and not acknowledging a certain games importance are very different.

Loosely, anyone who plays games is a gamer.

I guess I'm just an elitist, if that's how you want to lable me. I don't think I'm elite, but I think you have to earn certain things, and one of them, is respect. You can't earn my respect as a gamer if you dislike Zelda, or however you want to marginalize your dislike of the franchise. "Not a big fan" "Not my favorite game" "Like XXX better" "not really sure about Zelda" whatever.

If you don't like it, you should probably play it more and figure out why.

This belief if compounded by the fact that you out and out hated Fallout 3, which is shocking to say the least, and also apparently think Bioware is overrated and embellished.

Have you ever played Baldur's Gate II?

If Fallout 3, Baldur's Gate II, and The Legend of Zelda aren't good, I'll eat my own shit.

And THAT is what deserves the respect points, sir. Enjoy Demon Souls?

"All signs

 point to

   Yes"

Woah, you edited a lot into this post, or I just missed it.

Yes, I did say I played Baldur's Gate 2 and that I loved it (along with KOTOR 1).

Please don't act like hating Fallout 3 is like some sacred cow. I know I'm certainly not alone in my disliking for the title. And yes, in this thread and on this site, I feel that Bioware is overrated.

Hold it on the eating of the poop. I certainly think Baldur's Gate and Zelda are good games.

Let's just agree to disagree and move on. I'm not going to cave and say that you're right, because bro....you don't like Zelda, think Bioware is over-rated, and hated Fallout 3. In real life, I would plan my days around making bitter fun of someone I was around alot, who thought that. It would be a running and persistant joke that haunted us all until the end of time.

That said, I also cannot continue to duel with words about it on this forum, because it's already been explained as far as it ever will, and no resolution can be met.

Let us say that you think my opinion is based upon fallacy, and I disagree. Sometimes I choose not to understand my opinions, because like with all things, overanalysis can lead to inaccurate results.

I understand you were overreacting earlier in the thread due to Bioware's, in your mind, "overestimation" in this thread, but know this.

Bioware is heald in very high esteem throughout the entire industry, and their praise in this thread has been relatively sparse, compared to what it would have been had it been presented on a forum devoid of 360 fanboys, or any forum with notable members of the gaming community, because virtually everyone shits and goes crazy over Bioware.

As for all time RPG critical opinions, the top seven are(Note: It's harder to keep your critical score up, with more reviews.):

Fallout 3 is number 11.

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.

What was the point of posting the list? I like (and in some cases absolutely love) all of those games except for Link to the Past which I have not played, so no opinion.

And honestly, I'm sure what reviews scores have much to do with my opinion on the game. Surely you don't think GTA4 is one of the best games of all time?

Also, I'm so glad that you spend actual time in your real life making fun of me because my taste in games seems weird or strange to you. Kudos.

The point of the list was to show you that the percieved overratedness of Bioware wasn't limited to this thread, as you imply, but to the entire godfearing world. I thought that was obvious. What, did you think I was quoting gamerankings for the scores?

NO NO, NO NO NO.

X360 version 1.0-1.5 million
PS3 version 700,000-1.0 million

I feel 1.3 mill and 900k, but it very much depends on the reviews. It could be a 86% game, it could be a 92% game.

it looks generic as hell and bioware should be ashamed. Give me Mass Effect 2, damnit.

They should be ashamed because of how you think it looks without having actually played it, and with probably very little knowledge of it overall?

Damn their black hearts!

I hope this game is better then Jade Empire / Mass Effect. I need more awesome like KOTOR.



Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.
