Cool cake.. imagining the square as a giant liquorice allsort..
Does it really matter.. the Wii was about as plain looking as a console can get, but you could hardly say that hampered sales..
Well, having now competed it I feel completely vindicated in what I’ve said, but, instead of going on about it all over again, I’ll just let my prior comments stand as they are.
Duh, you totally forgot the car from Fourtsa on the MS list.
I haven’t failed to back up any of my points, I’ve just made them concisely - in stark contrast to your wall o’ text blathering sessions.
The latest argument boils down to this: Journey is trying to be a simple - ie shit - game, and succeeds, therefore it’s great.
Then you compare it to Pac Man, lol. Then you insult your pinball playing friend by suggesting there’s no skill to pinball, then the same for bowlers.
I will repeat from above...
GAME award goes to EA's Battlefield 3.. love it.
I'll miss drifting in and browsing the shelves..
Firstly I’m glad to hear you’ve encountered other people with “beef” with Journey, as I haven’t - you’d think it sacrilege the way it’s venerated.
My comments are based on every review I’ve read, which is several, which praise this game for things any other game would be torn apart.
A simple game will always be inferior to a complex one. You can simplify and simplify until what you’re left with isn’t a game, just a movie.

No problem.
Indeed, as with ALL games, this one also divides opinion and provokes debate over whether it's good or not!
Stunning footage.
Several very legitimate concerns have already been raised in this thread.
Another is simply the fact that the reviews Metacritic collect use a whole range of different grading scales, so you can't just lump them all together and hope they mean the same thing.
Surely those allegations are the real story.
"He gave an example of how Sony threatened to pull advertisement money from the website if its action-platformer Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction received anything other than a near perfect score. Gamespot eventually gave it a 7.5."

The reason is clearly because this game is so shallow, boring and empty of content that there literally is nothing to say about it.
In fact most of this review focuses on what the game isn't and what it doesn't have. "The only objective is to move f...
Thanks, needed a good laugh.
It's about time someone made a game where you get to grope carved faces!
Hard evidence of a person's skill in a game and across several games they can share and compare with friends online.
Smarmy exec. lands highly paid job (i'm totally not jealous btw).
Can't wait to read a raft of WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?! articles..
Oh no I'm deadly serious, a person who reviewed this game claims to have literally nodded off during its two hour playtime.
I don't think I want to play it!
Nope, I'm referencing a review.
That's because you're crap at making them - ie, crap at making games.
'Games with no mechanics' are movies.. unfortunately you're crap at making those too!
The latest in a sorry line of no-name little scumbags taking pot shots.
