Game Update Time!!!!!

Wow... Nothing is exclusive anymore >_>

 

*.* That's sweet.

Innfffffo. =D

I like the fact that I'll see another one in January.

Libre rocks, as always.

 

Wow the Wii has almost no good games...

 

._. Of course not. The Wii is all about gameplay.

Save for a few exceptions, of course.

 

I knew that the Wii doesn't have that many but... Seven?

 

WTF is the Orange Box?

The age of exclusives is dead indeed

Gamerankings isn't actually what some consider the best site for game reviews, they're actually ridiculously slow to get review scores and sometimes pick and choose which reviews they want to count towards the game score average, so most people actually prefer Gameranking's competitor, Metacritic.com who are said to have more experience as a website (as they also tally reviews of Books, Movies, etc.) and are much faster at collecting game reviews. Though it's debatable, Gamerankings vs Metacritic is like vgchartz vs nexgenwars to some people.

And though you didn't specifically state it, but I'm sure it was an inquiry:

I included PC and "next-gen" exclusives, because I would say this is a comparison of the 3 Next-Gen consoles, so if I asked you "What console do I get to play Gears of War", would you say "PS3" or "Wii"? No? You would say "The 360 is the Next-Gen console with Gears of War"? Then, ergo, Gears of War is a next-gen console exclusive of the 360

Same thing applies to RE4 and Twilight Princess. If I had a PS3, a 360, and a Wii in front of me, and you told me to pick up the one that plays Twilight Princess, which one am I plugging in and popping in a Twilight Princess disc? The Wii, ergo Twilight Princess is a Wii exclusive

 

...

 

I don't quite see the purpose of all this if it wasn't meant as a comparison to be drawn between the 3 Next-Gen consoles, judging from the posts in this thread it certainly seems to be such.

 

...

 

Isn't the whole point of the "Official Sony/Nintendo/Microsoft" threads to be in regards to what consoles have what games? If I want to know what games are good on a console, I should ask in the Console thread with people who actually own the console to give me a proper opinion, not consult a list of games that fit your standards of 'good' compiled in a thread of "This is what games are good on this console", I don't see the use of it besides to be used to draw conclusions about the 3 consoles, which is indicated by the posts like "wow this console has <number>" and "wow that console doesn't have <number>"

 

...

 

If we both agree that games like Lair and Folklore and Lost Planet and Mario Strikers: Charged are good games on said consoles, but due to the standard of "must be above B- lololol" the list does not include them as such, then we should be in agreeance that opinions and personal impressions are better than cold hard facless numbers attatched to a name and compiled under a console name, and ergo said list isn't serving it's purpose in the first place
