Geist - Gamespot review

Funny how things work around here when a hyped game is released.

If an Xbox game or a PS2 game comes out and receives anything lower than an 8.5, everyone flocks to the thread declaring it a bomb and a waste of money (Xbox is ded lol). When it happens to be a Gamecube game, everyone justifies what a stellar score that 7.8 was.

oh boy here we go.

Ocarina of Time was a shit game. I did not get past the first 25% of it with the aid of a strategy guide. It was boring, tedious and ranks as one of the most overrated games ever.

no

RPG?? I thought you guys were talking about Fire Emblem.

Yeah, that's what Anihawk said before he got flamed. Fepor = Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance. Which, by the way, if it's anything like The Sacred Stones, will be amazing.

Looking at your avatar i understand why you think OOT was shit..... :lol

You should not make fun of people. Some people are not fortunate enough to have the things we take for granted in America, like Iodized Table Salt.

I predict that you never make it past "Junior" status.

If it helps you sleep at night.
 
Anihawk likes to refer to certain games with nearly cryptographic abbreviations. I think it's supposed to be like a puzzle. So rather than say "Zelda: Oracle of Ages" he'll call it "Zelda VIII" and you're supposed to go back and count the other Zelda games before it to figure out which one he means.

you know how the game is played.

unfortunately, this round is over.
 
I'm sure the only reason it didn't score great is because no one likes its maker. I bet it deserves a 9 but since they made a Mary Kate and Ashly game points were taken! I'M ON TO YOU!!

Table salt sucks, period end of sentance.

Also, coming in as a junior member and mindlessly flaming threads is not a good way to start out.

I believe this has a lot to do with the hate.

All you guys do is bitch about shitty licensed games, and when a company who did a lot of licensed work comes out and does something original you blast them for it? Sure, that makes sense.

Because I have an opinion about a game that differs from your?

It doesn't help that you didn't substantiate your opinion but did admit to forming it after playing only a small portion of the game because it was apparently too difficult, even with a guide. I might even agree that OoT is (slightly) overrated, but that opinion has been formed after experiencing the entire game multiple times.
 
Well, that's GS, IGN, and PGC scoring it in the high 70s, low 80s. I've been on the fence, but now I think I'm really sold.

Once it hits $20 or $30.
