    Ha, this coming from a big Silent Hill 2 fan. Lets not kid ourselves champ, that game didn't even have serviceable gameplay. It was everything else about it that made it great, as is the case with Nier (only Nier's gameplay isn't anywhere near as clunky and slow as SH2's).

    This thread is filled with far too many games worth only one playthrough at best before forgetting about them.


    When did gamers get such low standards?

    Pfft. I consider RE4 and Metroid Prime to be the two greatest games ever made. I recognise Breaking Bad and The Wire as god's gift to tv. I know that Heat is the greatest film in history. Blonds and asian woman are the best. GTOs > every other car. Sea food > everything else. Big butts > big boobs. I'd say my taste in everything is unparalleled.

    I just want to say--again--something I have said many, many times before: Dispel the notion that a game starts at a 10, and gets points "docked" from it. That would be a really silly way to review a game.

    Game reviews aren't mathematical logarithms. They are the result of an experience that makes an impression on the mental and emotional superhighway of the game reviewer. I don't have a spreadheet that starts with a 10 and has calculations built in, where "low frame rate" = a .25 hit to the score. It doesn't work that way, and thank God for that.

    Phew, was gonna guess you lost someone. I draw my line at that kind of stuff. At that point it's not so much it's bad taste, as much you're being a scumbag for joking about it.
