This is EPD's first open world game so I don't expect it to be flawless. Watching videos and there already seems to be too much barren areas stretching on for too long and systems which could get frustrating for some players. There's still a lot of improvements and refining that will be applied to future Zelda game, I think.

 

[1upsuper]

Lies.

That's a weird hang-up. TLoZ 1 is still great. Definitely a good idea to go into it with some guidance though.

 

[correojon]

5 pages already before the first review hits. I fear for our souls.

OP, youre doing an awesome job with all the threads, THANK YOU!

Edit: Lol, page 6

 

[Wireframe]

Let's fucking go!

 

[GarciaHotspur]

Jeuxvideo.com will give the second 20/20 of their history, the first one was 14 years ago.. Wind Waker.

 

[Guymelef]

It's one of those "untouchable" series, expect lots of 95-100, etc...
And time will put the game in its proper place, just like MGS V...

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Nintendogs was a great game for what it proposed to do. But of course, as you don't shoot anything, and as it wasn't grey and brown and you didn't develop strong emotional connection with the characters (debatable point, btw) TEH HARDCORE!!!!1 was insulted anyone could actually like it and actually review it as high as they did. Hence the outrage.

well. the hardcore can stay pressed by nintendogs' slayage tbqh.

 

[rockx4]

Been waiting for this, should be entertaining

 

[Jawbreaker]

I'm sticking with 94 MC for this one.

 

[Always-honest]

Let's a Go!

 

[Punished_Snake]

96 metacritic, minimum 95. Let's fucking gooooo

 

[jj984jj]

Going to say 94 meta, 93 open.

Lmao you're so salty.

Can we do puerile Zelda puns to pass the time?

No game is flawless.

 

[A Link to the Past]

I do so hope that it turns out good. I want to be able to say that a 3D Zelda newer than 2002 is amazing.

Man, this is fucking silly.

 

[Hoho for breakfast]

I'll guess 94 Meta just because there's going to be a shit ton of 95-100s

I would even go 95 or 96 but some site is going to give it an 8 or less for clicks I imagine.

 

[ckaneo]

What's with the revisionist history for nintendogs?

10/10 game and it's not debatable

 

[jmaine_ph]

93 prediction. Finalizing my pre order later today for midnight release! Let's do this baby!!!!

 

[Zyrox]

It is almost time. This is gonna be interesting. Predicting a 96 meta. Go big or go home.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

I'll guess 94 Meta

I would even go 95 or 96 but some dumb ass site is going to give it an 8 or less for clicks I imagine.

or because they actually think it deserves an 8

That cant be ! This thread will be glorious

 

[DecoReturns]

By the way. Good thread Dystify.

Dedicated to have a review thread for us when we all should be sleeping.

 

[rockx4]

When a game someone likes get low scores: Well, reviews are harsher than they used to be, take the score and add 5.

When a game they dislike gets high scores: Reviewers are biased, xx series is a critic's darling.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

I'll toilet paper their houses.

 

[massoluk]

People are out of their minds if they think this game is gonna 90+ MC.

Lots of websites don't usually tolerate technical flaws, and this seems to be the only (and big) problem of BotW.

I can easily see a grand amount of 8.x

Occasional frame rate dip barely qualified as technical flaw, Skyrim have plenty of actual technical flaws, still got 90+

Tomorrow can't come soon enough, so glad I have the day off.

 

[kami_sama]

25 minutes to go.
Damn, I'm hyped.

 

[The perfect Dark]

24 minutes until explosion

 

[Vampirolol]

No game is flawless.

Metroid Prime

 

[120v]

no doubt the game is incredible but its zelda, it's a launch title. it could be pretty mediocre and still hover above 90

 

[ckaneo]

How's GAF gonna react when the Wii U version is less than 90?

 

[FinaruDensetsu]

Doesn't the game release tomorrow? Why is the embargo so late?

Guess we'll see.

 

[DecoReturns]

Super Mario Bros. 3 is a perfect game.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Metroid Prime

Not long enough.
Should have been 200 hours more.

 

[Dystify]

Thanks for the thread feedback comments! Happy to hear you like it.

Jeuxvideo.com will give the second 20/20 of their history, the first one was 14 years ago.. Wind Waker.

I might just include them in the accolades image.

[Son.Ralph.Funk]

I don't usually stick around for review threads, so this is exciting

hold me

 

[ckaneo]

Metroid Prime

Artifact hunt

 

[black070]

Whats the word on the Wii U version ? Is it competent enough to play on ?

 

[Thatanas]

Doesn't the game release tomorrow? Why is the embargo so late?

- Time for reviewers to experience the game
- As little room as possible for spoilers

 

[PillarEN]

93 metacritic. My prediction.
Jeff Gerstman gets a few death threats for old times sake.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Super Mario Bros. 3 is a perfect game.

there is only one perfect game
