>Paid 10
kek
Nathaniel Ortiz
>Sniper Elite 4 >10/10
oh boy
Leo Mitchell
Skyward Sword received one of those 10's according to wikipedia
Eli Gutierrez
>Rock Band 3 >The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword >The Last of Us >Grand Theft Auto V Oh, so a 10/10 is meaningless
Gavin Wood
Edge magazine is still a thing?
Henry Russell
>The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword toppest of all keks
>Drop7 (iOS, Android) What?
James Barnes
Why did Skyward Sword get so many 10/10 scores? BoTW seems like it actually deserves that score.
Michael Jackson
Oh, so Bloodborne isn't a 10? Ok then
Oliver Diaz
No they didnt , there is a review embargo till release
Aiden Lewis
Do reviewers even play the full game or only the beginning?
Luis Cooper
A fucking scam is what that is.
It deserved an 8/10 at best
Noah Baker
Breath of the Wild good as Little Big Planet confirmed
Jayden Allen
Full game, but they are only allowed to preview the beginning
Kayden Fisher
This is the Zelda hype cycle. Prepare for Skyward Sword level backlash a week after the game releases.
Blake Scott
>Oh, so Bloodborne isn't a 10? OK then.
FTFY
Nathan Mitchell
...
Ryan Watson
It isn't.
Your point ?
Samuel Thompson
Not with the chalice dungeons, it isn't.
Thomas Roberts
I did it with TP
I did it with SS
Now I'm doing it again. They get me every time.
Brody Lee
>This is the Zelda hype cycle The same cycle existed when LTTP and OoT came out, only those games were amazing so there was no backlash.
Kayden Jones
I can see why that works for Skyward Sword but not the rest. Don't care about music games tho.
Nicholas Russell
>BotW Red good as Redemption, Ocarina of Time, Halo and Bayonetta confirmed FTFY
Lucas Butler
That's a pretty nice cover
Cooper Stewart
GOTY
GOTG
BTFO EVERYONE
NINTENDOOOOOO IN
DA
HOUSSSSSE
John Rodriguez
So it's not "the cycle". The "zelda cycle" was invented by assmad sonic autists that parroted the "sonic cycle" people threw in their face for yet another shitty Sonic game. Problem is, it literally only work for Skyward Sword, the Zelda game revealred at the time. TP, MM, OOT, the other main 3D games don't match. cherry picking a contrarian in a thread of thousands that don't follow just doesnt work.
Thomas Reed
Because Nintendo may have done paid reviews during the Wii era and didn't want another 8.8 situation.That or reviewers are blind fanboys.
Henry King
>Bloodborne so zelda confirmed shit
Nathan Moore
Gamespot gave it a 7.5
John Miller
None of them deserve a 10
Parker Johnson
Nintendo hasn't paid for reviews since the NES days. It's that reviewers are the kind of people that like nu-Zelda garbage.
Noah Williams
>Super Mario Bros >Mario 64 >Zelda OoT >Half life 2 >Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 >Bayonetta >RE4 >Red Dead Redemption >GTA5 >Bloodborne
all desereve imo.
The rest ehhhh
Carson Clark
>Horizon Zero Dawn: 9 Sorry, can't trust anyone who'd give this """game""" that score
Fucking shills
Liam Rogers
FUCK
FUCK FUCK FUAAARK this cant fucking be happening.... Horizon was supposed to usher in a new era of gaming?..FUCK these paid manchild shill cucks....
Charles Turner
first halo deserves it tbqh, extremely influential and important game in video game history even if you hate it.
Colton Jenkins
>the wii Era everything was getting 10/10 in the wii era, because that's when the online "journalism" industry exploded, and all normies with no credential or gamer backgrounds put their blog online and were amazed at the most broken shit since they were new to the medium entirely.
Andrew Jackson
Why are people so upset? Don't you want this game to be good and fun?!
Jace Harris
The only faults I could come up with are technical so far. >900p30 with drops
I can see why it would be getting a 10 from what I've seen so far. Story and how everything meshes together is what I want to find out. If the true final fight is OoT levels of climax, then I'll be extremely happy.
Jaxson Morales
>RDR >GTA5 >anywhere close to a 10
okay user
Oliver Garcia
high review scores wont make the game any better, numbnuts
Leo Sanchez
People love to bring up the 8.8 fiasco but rarely ever mention Gamespot's SS review.
Josiah Phillips
Name FIVE (5) games that deserve a 10/10 right now cuck.
Jack Gonzalez
Seriously just delete this thread.
James Howard
>this game has a 10 but it's on nintendo so it's shit! shit! enjoy your 4/10 indie games, retard
Thomas Allen
>litte big planet is a 10
Carson Hernandez
the idea behind the trend is that it started with wind waker, majora's mask was some weird after hours project that no one got really upset about
Sebastian Watson
>A Mario 64 launch game
I wasn't aware Mario 64 was originally an SNES game that got ported to the N64 because the SNES was tanking
Cooper Hall
Anything but those two
Charles Jackson
Undertale Stardew valley Owlboy Shovel knight Fez
Jace Williams
oh tell me where you played it already.
haha fuck off with the salt you fat pc cunt
Nicholas Johnson
damn.... i guess i have to eat my words
if edge is giving a game a 10 you have to take notice. they are notoriously the most critical reviewers for games.
We can all take the piss out of IGN but we cant really do that for edge
Jaxson Hill
HZD is probably genuinely a good game. Along with Nioh, this year is look really good.
Sebastian Williams
Not him BUT
HOMM3 SMW SM64 Diablo 2:LoD Starcraft, Brood War
Leo Allen
This is a meme right?
Sebastian Bailey
SMB a 10? Fuck off. 3 was better
Jordan Cox
Because it wasn't unexpected from them after the first time it happened.
Sebastian Rodriguez
>Grand Theft Auto IV >Grand Theft Auto V
Both fuckin garbage, one for being for hipsters and the other for literal casual toddlers.
Alexander Gutierrez
I know. I even remember Sup Forums freaking out over a gamestop stream mentioning it was bad. However, up until that point, multiple major review sites already gave it a perfect 10s and high 90s.
Brody Sanders
>Nintendo game gets a good score after embargo lifts >GAME OF THE GENERATION SONYGGERS ON SUICIDE WATCH >Sony game gets a good score after embargo lifts >Fucking Sony paid for those reviews it's a fucking movie nobody fucking cares about reviews
Andrew Baker
>HZD is probably genuinely a good game.
All sign points to a resounding NO
Nice graphics sometimes, but so much bullshit both in mechanics and in story.
William Moore
yeah i agree. Other sites i would not give a shit.
it's not a female MC it's a robot, the cave people are robots convinced that they're humans.
Evan Hill
>Bayo 2 I bought it with a wii u. Great game but not goty
Juan Davis
Nah, I'm clean. You on the hand need to be destroyed
Jacob Rogers
8.8 had special significance because iirc it was the first review to be published
Elijah King
Some people decided to challenge a god and are now fearing for their lives.
Samuel Martinez
But it IS well known
When was the last time. You have game like Uncharted 4 or Last gardian getting 90's while each are pretty but fucking unplyable and boring.. You get shit like FFXV that is UTTER TRASH yet it get's respectable scores. Fucking hell, until nioh came out you only had Bloodborne as a viable game.
Betting you my left nut that HZD gonna get the quintessential sony paid score. 89-91 with a user score in the high 70-low 80.
Anthony Reed
>female muslim terrorist creates robots that kill mankind >males try to stop this madness by creating a male AI >female robots try to destroy this AI
Aiden Miller
To be fair, 2014 was a really bad year. Shit like Shadow of Mordor and Dragon Age Inquisition were getting goty awards.
Adrian Garcia
>see it's edge >decide to look at old covers of edge magazine >see this
Hmmm interesting
Luis Powell
console wars
Jack Moore
Uncharted is a better game than Tomb Raider Last Guardian is alright for a Team Ico game but wasn't as good as Shadow of the Colossus FFXV got garbage scores for a Final Fantasy game Nioh isn't comparable to Bloodborne, it's Ninja Gaiden without jumping
Andrew Diaz
Little Big Planet is one of the highest rated games on Metacritic. People forget how much hype this game had due to its potential that it never met.
Dominic Cruz
TP was the first zelda after OoT with "real" graphics so it had special hype behind it
Jason Jenkins
>Halo: Combat Evolved trash game that fucked up the genre >The Last of Us unchartered but muh daughter >Grand Theft Auto V gameplay downgrade from IV
>implying
Xavier Collins
dude it deserved 7.5 skyward sword was a sub par game that didnt deserve more than a 7, this is coming from a huge fucking zelda fan
Adrian Morgan
Same with the rest. TLOU is average. Just average and undeveloped. Gtav is such a downgrade with crap shooting. Why rockstar? The last guardian is just disappointing
Connor Jones
>To date the 10 score has been given to eighteen games ONLY throughout the magazines history.
and one of those was Skyward Sword
Breath of the Wild is on par with Skyward Sword
Jaxson Miller
...
Cooper Thompson
>current year +1 >game review scores
Liam Myers
One has potential to be the game of the generation and the other does not.
Joshua Anderson
Uncharted is a shit game and no comparison to Tomb Raider gonna change it Last gardian is an exercise in frustration and unnaceptable controls. FF scores where still way too fucking high for the pile of feces it is. Never ever seen a more limiting open world. Not saying it's comparable, just saying that it's the only game since bloodborne that can stand on it's own. It's pretty god damn sad it came to that.
I feel extremely lucky that i never bought a PS4. My roomate took the hit, never again
Luis Lewis
I want everyone in this thread and myself to die. You all deserve death
Colton Cruz
They can't give it a 11 can they
If it's on par to RDR and Mario Galaxg I'm happy
Cameron Barnes
@368548045 you don't deserve a response, you're clearly incapable of actual discussion
Nathan Morales
But by that logic every game ever reviewed by them is worst than or equal to skyward sword.
Kevin Taylor
>Rock Band 3 >The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword >The Last of Us >Grand Theft Auto IV >Grand Theft Auto V >RDR >Dark Souls >10/10
>Horizon >9/10
Yeah, no.
Juan Perry
>Fez You disgust me user, even if this is bait.
Henry White
chalice dungeons were why i stopped playing
Nathaniel Ward
>there are people that will lurk Sup Forums all day long just to have consolewar flamewar shitposting contests Why don't you play some video games Even with some serious meta levels of false flagging going on this shit should have gotten old a decade ago
Camden Flores
Because people who like the wii liked skyward sword. That simple. SS has my favorite temples. The downside is it only has temples.
Carson Perry
you posted that yesterday, i literally saw this right before going to bed, and youre still here posting the same shill image a day later
Lucas Turner
>HZD is probably genuinely a good game. No, no it's not. Stop pretending the game hasn't been streamed and entierely analyzed already. Stop pushing the review scores instead of the facts of the products shat in your mouth you fucking slave.
