WWF Raw - Page 3

Gamespot gave it a low score because it's much more proffesionl than ign.

IGN is so damn biased... Wreckless, Bloodwake, and other mediocre games somehow manage to get 9.0+!! Soul Reaver 2 somehow manages to get 9.4 at ps2.ign.com!! IGN is a very unreliable site. Althoguh cube.ign.com is VERY harsh when it comes to ports.

Gamespot stated that the lack of modes was the thing that killed the game. Not even a damn career modes, come on let's face!! No replay value, no longelivity, might be great for the first 3 days but then it becomes ultimately shallow.

Just keep telling yourself that Gamespot is professional. Maybe you'll eventually believe it yourself.

As for Raw, have you even played the game? Probably not.

Really??

If ign is so much better how come Bloodwake, Wreckless score above 9.0+??

Silent Hill 2 gets 9.4!! Come on!! Everybody on this board knows that I love the Silent Hill series, and basicly that I'm a maniac when it comes to Silent Hill. But Gamespot's review is much more proffesional 7.9 opposed to IGN's 9.4 because the game has absoluteley no replay value for people who are not fans, and the game is short (about 12 hours). They show people who are not fans of the genre/series if it's good.

IGN is a site for fans, and xbox.ign.com is so damn baised and unreliable that the chances that you will be picking up a mediocre game when it score above 9.0 at IGn ar very high.

Same goes for PS2.ign.com , they are definately biased and overate games.

Matt and Fran (cube.ign.com ) treat ports of games harshly, and they get low score AKA Sonic Adventure 2 which is one of the best platformers out. Then SSX Tricky hardly improves upon the PS2 version and it gets 9. something.

Gamespot is a lot more proffesional than IGN. Can't deny that can you.

Azazela, IGN has also given out some horrible reviews for XBox titles like New Legends and Simpson's Road Rage. The fact is that Gamespot reviews the games comparing them to what the XBox can do, and not just on the game alone. If Wreckless came out on a system you owned, you'd blow in your pants right now.

Wreckless is a great game, and so is Raw. I own them both. I didn't like Silent Hill 2, but I didn't like the first one either, I think thats a matter of taste. But Gamspot ripped both Raw and Wreckless for really no reason other than a lack of features. I'd rather have a great game than a lousy one with TONS of features (see Smackdown 3). Oh and Gamespot actually LIKED that horrible sack of crap.

So go sell it to someone who's buying.

True, but if you look into the majority of hyped games that had to turn out as killer aps AKA Wreckless, Bloodwake. They simpily overated them, WHY?? Because they are BAISED.

I compeletly disagree with some of ps2.ign.com reviews.

Soul Reaver 2 9.2 , PLEASE.
Bouncer 8.7 8 hours of gameplay and no depth...
State Of Emergency 8.5 good but not excellent
Maximo 9.something the gameplay is crap, hype, garbage

The games had to deliver, but they didn't. They got high score to keep the fans happy.

That brings us to a second thought

What if Mario, Eternal Darkness, and some other exclusive franshises turn out as mediocre games

But I truly doubt it because those are Nintendo's flagship titles. For example Mario Sunshine has been under development for more than 3.5 years

The Strangler, I just read this... But you didn't like Fire Pro D???

And Matusha, I'd like to hear why Wrestlemania is better than No Mercy.

Professor S · 02-26-2002, 12:17 AM

No, I like Fire pro a lot, but I think VPW2 is far better.

Geez, I must really sound negative all the time...

BTW, I think WM 2000 is better than No Mercy if just for the fact that WM 2000 didn'thave that HORRIFIC slowdown when you have more than 3 guys on screen. That actually made me avoid the tag team championship story mode all together.

Good Lord, Stu...

If I wanted to scour the net for every GOOD Raw review I could and match you tit for tat, but I have better things to do with my life besides be a jackass. You are bitter, lonely person aren't you?

azazela31 · 02-27-2002, 12:07 PM

Reviews don't mean ****.

ICO, Soul Reaver 2 get above 9.0 on all sites and they suck.

Extreme G3 gets 8 at nearly all sites and it hell of a lot better.

Reviews don't mean ****, half of the PS2/X-Box/GCN games that score 9.0 suck.

I was just making a point...I wasn't making this personal...I think you are the one who might have some type of problem if you have to start calling me a bitter, lonely jackass...

Professor S · 02-28-2002, 09:52 PM

So your point is that there are 3 sites out there that have given Raw a bad review. Gee, considering there are about 5 million sites out there I can't believe you found that many.

As for the point you were trying to make, I know what it was, everyone else knows what it was.

Your little game of innocent hostility hiding behind pretending to be a good little reporter doesn't work. It hasn't ever since I started talking to you. Its quite obvious really.

I had asked you once to ignore me and you didn't. Don't say you weren't replying to me, because that IGN comment was obviously aimed directly at me.

When I have an opinion I come out and say it instead of hiding behind innuendo and yellow journalism. That opinion is that you are a jackass.

Perfect Stu · 02-28-2002, 11:35 PM

temper, temper...tsk tsk tsk...

I'm not going to call you names, because quite frankly you're not worth it.

Professor S · 03-01-2002, 01:35 AM

Then why don'tyou just do what I asked before, and ignore me as I will you.

If you would have just followed this simple request to begin with we could have avoided this whole situation.
