[Matlock]

8.0 = 64%!

Above average, but not worth $50. Maybe $20.

 

[Wario64]

it's mine at $5

They crap on games when it's warranted, they aren't as biased as say teamxbox

 

[Mejilan]

PGC is a decent site for reviews, generally speaking. Moreso than many fansites, anyway.

Buffers what IGN said, for the most part. Encouraging.

We gave Super Mario Sunshine an 8.0 in one of our reviews.

I read the review, the game shortcomings seem to be technicals ones. the story and the concept are the game strongest parts.

like I said I'll wait for more reviews, but it's a shame the concept, gameplay and story are held back by techincals shortcomings, might give this game a shot.

The technical shortcomings aren't enough to make the game bad. They just keep it from being great. If you're truly interested in the game I suggest not letting the shaky controls hold you back.

WELL IT'S A FANSITE WHICH COVERS ONLY NINTENDO GAMES IT MUST OVERRATE THEM ALL JUST BEACUSE IT'S A SPECIALIZED FANSITE!

they reviewed Eternal Darkness a 9.5, so i think you're right

Obviously that's well off what the rest of the industry rated it.

 

[Wario64]

obviously everyone else overrated it

 

[Error]

while 9.5 is a little too much for Eternal Darkness (a 9.3 is more like it for me) the game is great.

nice try Wario

 

[Wario64]

nah, eternal darkness is the most overrated game of this generation

but i'll just shut up cause i dont want to derail this thread

 

[Musashi Wins!]

well at least all the Nfans are here to remind us how good it is.

 

[Ristamar]

Speaking of "9.5" and "overrated", you can blame the 9.5 PGC gave to Golden Sun on Dragona, IIRC. Kinda makes her opinion on Metroid Prime even harder to swallow.




Just kidding... mostly.

I have both primes, and love them, but really...her problems with the games are valid. I'm finishing zero mission and I'm at the stealth area...awesome shit.

 

[Mejilan]

That stealth area totally blew me away.

 

[Craig Majaski]

Just wait until you see my review!

 

[Shaheed79]

Take em down a peg Craig!

I think I'll give it a rent or convince a friend to buy it then borrow it from him.

 

[Wario64]

Just wait until you see my review!

C-

 

[sprsk]

yeah im still not gonna play this game.

A 9.3 to a 9.5? How in the hell does that "do it" for you? Jesus christ.

yeah that was pretty retarded more like 8.5 now it makes sense :lol

 

[Zeo]

yeah im still not gonna play this game.

I'm sorry. ):

It's a shame people won't even give the game a try when it looks to be better than most people figured it would be.

 

[Kon Tiki]

We gave Super Mario Sunshine an 8.0 in one of our reviews.

Wait, are you trying to use that example to prove you do not overrate games? :/

Uh, yes, he was.

Care to give us examples of how they overrate games?

For what it's worth, she regrets that review. I did a second review later and gave it a 7.0, which I don't regret at all. Had some fun hatemail on it at the time, though!

 

[Ristamar]

For what it's worth, she regrets that review.

I know, she's said as much on these boards. It was just a playful jab.

 

[Ecrofirt]

It was a good review, and I might end up renting the game or something because of it.

Heaven forbid someone actually LIKES Geist.

I can't believe you guys are getting mad at striker for liking a game. :lol

 

[dannyQ]

PGC aren't as fanboyish as some other sites but ill wait for more reviews
