Metal Gear Solid 2nd best game of all time on GameRankings? (Game Boy Color version!)

When did Game Rankings change their calculations? Almost their whole Top Ten Games has been rearranged. Zelda TOoT is still number 1, but Metroid Prime dropped a bit and weird things like Metal Gear Solid for Gameboy and the Zelda Collection are now top 10 games.

I suppose things like this are necessary considering the ever-changing gaming websites that are included in the overall scores.

Still, GBC Metal Gear??
 
Well...not as magazines and websites reviewed it compared to other games...

I think a game with 100 websites giving it an 8 is better than

another game with 5 websites giving it a 9...

Let's not forget those two crappy scores that didn't seem fully justfied or deserving for MGS3...
 
Ick. I bought MGS on gameboy color based in IGN's perfect 10 review.
Sitting through a 20 minute long cutscene in front of your TV is one thing. Squinting at a tiny GBC screen, reading codecs and watching crudely animated action unfold in quite another.
 
it is indeed a crime that GB MGS is so huge, but its not gamerankings fault, they just report the news. its the sites who reviewed it who are to 'blame'.

perhaps gamerankings should factor in date and generation into their ranking system, i have a feeling that pong got a few 10/10's back in the late 70s.... why isnt it up on top?
or dont they count 'Transistor-Fancier Magazine' or the 'MIT student magazine' as contributing scorage?????
 
Top Bottom
