CRank: 5Score: 18610

Yeah, this notion of them "shooting low" is not accurate. When predicting. 7/10, the game was finished.

Not all 7's are the same.

Knack might be a 7, but it's a solid 7. Most of it's score comes from the solid gameplay. That's what makes it so recommendable.

Reviewers are becoming too cool for school lately. Reminds me of when Homer became a food critic on the Simpsons.

This article is BANG on. Been saying this all week. Kudos to the author!

OMG... I figured it was just some buggy code. This is hilarious. So many people will have to eat their words.

Vita tv will sell well for a while. One reason being it's a multiroom ps4 remote play box. While the PS4 hasn't dropped in Japan yet, the popularity of Vita means people can't wait and hope to get one.

I rarely call articles stupid, but this one was really, really off the mark.

I got excited at a direct comparison, thinking it would be a tech nerd good time...meanwhile none of the parts were equivalents and they left out half the stuff you need, like OS and inputs...I know I can compare them myself...but I started out thinking it would be a fun article... It wasn't.

Less than 1% is amazing. I hope Xb1 adopters get the same low failure rates, so almost
everyone gets a disappointment-free November.

I'll second Sound Shapes. One of my all time favourite digital experiences.

Yes...I own it.. the reviews would be funny if it wasn't so unfair.

To me this is a case of biased reviews and reviews by lazy incapable gamers.

Biased because of Sony/Cerny prejudices (Don't even pretend this doesn't exist, people.)

Lazy/incapable reviews because a lot of people seem to find Knack to be too hard. (I personally like the style of challenge) Take my word, it's in no way unfairly hard.

This game ...

YES.

This is the first console launch cycle with the CNN brand of news coverage. It's too much. Mass produced electronics have defects in small percentages... This isn't news.

Just because you are or know someone affected does not mean the problem is widespread. That is self-centered thinking.

Yeah...this is just one of the political "talking points"'of the new console wars.

Microsoft is pushing the following:

-Resolution matters less than gameplay (a total deception because it implies that both isn't possible.)

-Ps4 has no fun games

-The cloud will come to rescue one day

-Titanfall will change our lives forever.

-Ps4 hardware is unreliable (newly added, by levera...

This article is terrible. It TOTALLY misses the point of "resolutiongate."

Resolution arguments of late have nothing to do with any fancy speculation. The facts are simple and indisputable. Several PS4 titles are running at a much higher resolution running THE SAME GAME. Man! What the hell?! What is so hard to understand about this?

Console wars bs doesn't matter to me...but I do not appreciate people bending reality to suit their needs. This st...

The game looks remarkably good, actually, when you see it in person.

Besides, I always find this kind of talk funny. Last gen was WAY out of it's league for years. To say games are similar, doesn't make a good case. It's like a guy killing himself to lift up a barbell and then a bodybuilder comes along and lifts it easily and then you say that since they both lifted the same weight, the second guy isn't stronger and isn't capable
of more.

It's easy to make fun of it, but you can bet it was people who bought it for kids mostly, and some probably sold to collectors that buy literally every game.

One thing you're not considering is: if COD is an "Xbot game" and it sold huge numbers at PS4 launch...could that mean there are a few (hundred thousand) less "xbots?"

I'm not actually suggesting that, and don't care for gamer-vs-gamer console wars... But if you're gloating about those numbers, they could actually be turned on you and used to suggest that Xbox gamers have been buying the PS4.

4.5 out of 10 is a ridiculously low score. Knack is a solid 7. I really like it.

4593d ago 21 agree13 disagreeView comment

And hey...if it doesn't happen this chucklehead will say "just as I predicted!" as always. This guy's predictions are on par with coin flips.

Wasn't it not too long ago he predicted that PS4 and XB1 would flop in sales? Nice try, buddy, you guessed wrong.

Except that Knack isn't a bad game. Everyone has their own opinion, so I won't try to tell you you're wrong if you played it and don't like it. However, if
you haven't tried it, give it a chance and judge for yourself.

I honestly think Knack is suffering in reviews because it's more difficult than a lot of modern games. It's not bs difficulty, but in my opinion a fun challenge that reminds me of a time when games weren't too easy.

You know, I actually like Knack a lot. It's not what it seems to be at first though. It's actually more of an adult's game. I think some people getting it for young kids might be surprised that the combat requires strategy and is unforgiving.

I respect people's opinions and don't think everyone will love it, but I encouraging people to give a try for themselves, they might like it.

I actually disagree regarding the UI. I like the new UI a lot. Doesn't hurt that it runs butter-smooth, either.

Yeah, also...not sure it makes sense to compare a long running 1st party series to a new ip in a very different genre, in the case of Mario vs Knack.

Plus, how is winning by 2/100 in metascore and losing by 2/100 on user score a "house cleaning" in the case of the ZombieU vs Killzone?

Not sure this article makes very much sense to begin with...especially considering that the author makes Resogun sound irrelevant when a lot of people cannot stop play...
