[GrotesqueBeauty]

It doesn't make sense she'd be alive for hundreds (thousands?) of years anyways.

Please stop hinting around things. I've already had a SS thread or two go sour on me because people would talk around spoiler to the point that you could guess exactly what they were talking about.

 

[Kard8p3]

Edge quotes. Big thank you to Majora from the RLLMUK forum.

Yep this will likely be the best zelda game.

Dear Zelda fans,

When the reviews hit worldwide please don't be like Uncharted fans

Sincerely,

Fellow GAFer and Zelda fan.

These are nintendo fanboys youre talking about. Its the most violently forum retard in existence.

 

[BurntPork]

im thorn..on the one side im happy it seems to be an awesome game on the other hand i now have to buy a wii for like 4 games (zelda, smg and xenoblade)

do you guys think a wii u version is already in the works?

A Wii U Zelda? Maybe, but that's 3-5 years away.

A Wii U version of SS? lol not a chance. I can only see it being ported if it flops on Wii.

I would have agreed with you before seeing that Uncharted thread. I don't think even the Nintendo fans on this board will react that badly to an 8/10

we don't have to since zelda will get 10/10 all over the board.

Well hey now, were you here during 8.8?

we don't have to since zelda will get 10/10 all over the board.

Yep... it's exactly as bad as I think it'll be.

 

[elongation]

I hope it is at least more difficult than TP. Perhaps the 6 heart from start idea wasn't such a great idea.. Still, it sounds like the game has a wealth of variety

 

[The Technomancer]

Well hey now, were you here during 8.8?

Yeah, I'd like to think we've gotten it out of our system. And/or we've become cynical enough to expect a few low scores.

 

[jman2050]

Uncharted fans passed them 2 years ago.

I never thought that would be possible but there you go.

A Wii U version of SS? lol not a chance. I can only see it being ported if it flops on Wii.

You never know though, maybe they'll take the DQX route and up the graphics some

Still wishfull thinking.

Lol good luck with that.I only mentioned in another thread that i was a bit disappointed that Nintendo made Motion plus mandatory for SS and they almost killed me...
Sometimes i wonder if some of them are secret Nintendo PR people.

 

[Nocturnowl]

I for one will be intrigued to see the response to a less than favorable review (one that is complaining about motion controls is likely to be the culprit here) for the fallout that may cause mass hilarity, unless I end up being pulled into the hysteria myself.
It's like spectating on massive waves crashing against a shoreline during a storm, it's entertaining to watch but get too close and you'll be dragged into the salty sea yourself, in this case a salty sea of tears.

They're going to throw a fit when IGN gives it a 9.5 compared to U3's 10.

Though, if a U3 fan like this one shows up when that happens, it'll get to the point that bans will be handed out like candy, I bet.

Lol good luck with that.I only mentioned in another thread that i was a bit disappointed that Nintendo made Motion plus mandatory for SS and they almost killed me...

I'm disappointed that Uncharted requires dual analog.

That's how stupid it sounds to say that.

It's so absurd, honestly. Hundreds, no, thousands of people start raging because a person dares to disagree with what they think is "right". And because of what? Because of some metacritic?

Just take a look at parts of GAF. Politically, so many here are calling themselves "liberal", but when it comes to something as ridiculous as review scores they suddenly turn to people who can't accept diverting opinions if their lives depend on it.

I think it's pretty sad, honestly.

 

[Gregorn]

Starting with 6 hearts sounds really lame. Those 6 hearts represent the 6/10 this game will be getting.

People are greatly exaggerating the overreaction of Uncharted fans regarding the Eurogamer review. Jeff Gerstmann received death threats to his home because of his 8.8 review of TP. No buddy, the Zelda fanbase has more than its fair share of people that are fucked up in the head and shall provide some nice spectacle in this thread.

 

[Caelus]

this one

Is this guy 12? Even 12 year olds have acted more mature than that.

Although I giggled at "Wii U Mad?"

See! Intolerance in differing opinions already.

This thread will go down as a gold mine in GAF history. Book it.

So, because the TP reaction was worse, the Uncharted one is being exaggerated?

The game is built around it. There was no way to not require it unless the entire game was rebuilt for GCN/CC controls. Would you complain about CoD requiring DA?

 

[LeonSKennedy90]

Uncharted thread was just the appetizer. New 3d Zelda after 6 years getting lower then a 9/10? Fanrage and trying to discredit the reviewer is pretty much guaran-damn-teed

 

[GooeyHeat]

Am I the only one who chuckled at "Link here" in the OP? [/badjoke]
As for reviews, yeah, well, that's just like, uh, their opinion, man.

 

[brandonh83]

Happens with anything with a big following. Nothing new.

 

[Alrus]

Uncharted fanboy are as crazy and often more annoying than Nintendo fanboys. There's also the Killzone fanboys (remember the gifs?).

In general, a pure fanboy for anything will be annoying and crazy anyway.

See! Intolerance in differing opinions already.

This thread will go down as a gold mine in GAF history. Book it.

Go make BurntPork post in the UC3 thread, watch the reactions. After all, it's just a "differing opinion" too.

 

[sublimit]

Are you retarded?

A good example would have been if Sony had made U3 to be played only by Move.
Dual shock comes with the PS3 so i don't need to buy anything else besides the game in order to play it.

I think you're at least as fucked up in your head, though, with your repeating ridiculing "the Zelda fanbase". For example when you attacked another GAFer because of an Edge comment ("There'll be blood if Edge doesn't give Skyward 10/10") that was obviously aimed at another post before, what you simply ignored in order to jump your gun and start your ridiculous "OH the Zelda fans start again" show.

 

[Lord_Byron28]

Called it:

I highly doubt it will be her. I do think it's likely that she could be called Impa(there's been several of them throughout Zelda games) since she's a sheikah, seems to be a guardian/protector of Zelda and considering Impaz role in TP. However, I don't think we'll directly see any characters that survive in latter games.

I'm really looking forward to this game but there are some things that make me nervous such as difficulty, overdosing on the motion control, and I'm a little nervous that there won't be that many dungeons.

 

[LeonSKennedy90]

Are you retarded?

We need a "this is burntpork, dude" image to respond to posts like this

 

[ShockingAlberto]

I once got a PM from a pretty pro-Sony poster here calling me a dirty name. Near as I could tell, it's because I said it's boring to know ahead of time that Uncharted 3 would be GOTY.

 

[AceBandage]

Lots of people throwing around the word retard on this page...

i'm like nearly positive that almost every high profile reviewer has received a meaningless internet death threat from nearly every fanbase, uncharted included

it's just a thing that happens to reviewers and it's as meaningless as when kojima said he "had" to keep making mgs because he got mean "death threat" emails and letters

 

[BY2K]

That's a good point, did either ONM or EDGE talked about the second quest? If there's any...

 

[Glass Rebel]

People laugh at gaming journalism but guess who has the biggest laugh when they put an arbitrary number under a review? It's really sad when you look at EDGE threads and most people are just there to shit on the mag over a low score or circlejerk because of all the 9s and 10s their favourite game is getting. I love GAF and I love lots of posters here but the obsession with metascores over actual merits shouldn't be this prevalent on a board like this. But I guess that's just how this industry rolls.

Got a death e-mail for....shit, I can't even remember the game.

OH

FUCKING SPY FICTION LIKE SIX YEARS AGO

When I was writing for Men.com

Man that was like the only review I wrote for that site and the guy (wouldn't surprise me if he posted here) said I unfairly compared it to Metal Gear Solid and I "wouldn't like it if someone stealth killed you."

Which, I mean...probably.

to be fair, spy fiction has a terminator duke nukem big boss in it so that's pretty unfair to poor old mgs

... Except every Wii made in the last 2 years comes with M+, and M+ costs $20 vs $120 for Move. Is gimping the entire game worth saving $20? It wouldn't even be Skyward Sword without it!

............... I mean that literally. Look at the new Iwata Asks.

But I guess that's just how this industry rolls.

EA aren't giving Jim Sterling a copy of Battlefield 3 to review either. It's so weird because 80% of people that buy these games won't ever look up a review on a video game blog or read comments on video game forums.

He's talking about the console, not the games.

Yeah - no.

This is absolutely false. I bought three Wii games in the past two years and none had Motion Plus.

Mario Galaxy 2
Donkey Kong Country Returns
Kirby's Epic Yarn

Reading comprehension...

Not almost. I stabbed it.
