[QUOTE="FIipMode"]Skyrim is the one we should have a problem with. So high with that combat? Whoa.AAllxxjjnn
The overall jank that permeates throughout Skyrim is something that shouldn't be acceptable at all. What excuse do they have? It feel like an amateur effort a lot of the time.

So true. It's a game that's basically held together with duct tape. I have never understood the rabid Bethesda love on this forum and everywhere else. Their games never excel in any way save for how big they are. Everything else blows. Rockstar makes them look like a joke in comparison, as does Obsidian.

[QUOTE="AgentA-Mi6"][QUOTE="DarkLink77"] You have no idea how hard it was to not edit this list and try to make System War's taste look better than it is.DarkLink77
} Uncharted 2 was a brilliant game in its own right, worthy of a top ten seat but nowhere near the top three.

That's kind of how I feel. Admittedly, I don't think the game is anything more than "good", but I can understand people putting it in the top 10. But number 1? It shocked me. But then, there are lots of Uncharted fans (Cows or otherwise) on System Wars. I was surprised the Halo games didn't do better because Halo is System Wars' favorite shooter.

Gears coming before Halo is a tragedy. x.X

Halo was divided between 3 and Reach though. Uncharted 3 even though it was quite high didn't steal too many votes from 2. That being said, Uncharted 2 had 332 points which was at least 60-80 more than the next game.

Yeah, it kind of is. Gears 1 was a legit amazing game, though.

It worths the $25 for the content alone. Just don't buy it if you expect the combat to be excellent.

Just mod the heck out of it and you'll have fun! :D

I don't have the funds nor the spouse to back up a decent rig. I'm getting it for the PS3 (I know, I know...) only because my 360 conks out too often on me. Perhaps it'll be a mistake, perhaps not.

It's not all bad, the world is beautiful to travel through on PC (if you mod it) and some of the questlines are fun. Though, the combat is poor, the digital acting is poor, characters say pointless things at you randomly. It looks like an ocean of vast possibilities at first, but the moment you jump in, you realize it's pretty damn shallow. It's a really awkward game and, to be fair, my tolerance for that **** is low.

Oh. Well, can't really say how it's running on the PS3 :S It's up to patch 1.8 and apparently the big issues with the PS3 were supposedly solved either on patch 1.4 or 1.5, but how well it plays now I really couldn't tell you. It's really worth a buy on the PC though. It runs even on mildly weak PC's, so even if you don't mod it at least you wouldn't have such a buggy/problematic experience (compared to the console versions that is).

I think it runs fine on the PS3, otherwise I would have just outright skipped it until my 360 is fixed. My PC is so bad it has to run Halo CE at the lowest settings. Yeah.

Oh wow. Suddenly I feel better about my PC. To anyone who read Zev's post I completely agree - buy a gaming PC sooner than later. I put all that money towards consoles and just don't have the lifestyle to support one right now.

[QUOTE="StrongDeadlift"]

They sure as hell buy it, and more importantly PLAY it. :lol:. However, your post has no effect on me because I couldnt give two sh*ts about Gears of war.

Cows never gave a rats ass about Uncharted until Uncharted 2 came out and got all those scores, because they could use it as ammo in the console war. Before U2, the series used to be talked about like generic shovelware, the same way people make fun of Resistance. They cant even tell you 3 things they like about the game without using some marketing buzzword like "cinematic experiance", "production value", etc... Ive never met anybody in real life praise the game like that.

Its ok bro, keep forcing yourself to think Uncharted is good because of the score. I know you dont actually think it for yourself :cool:

[spoiler] :P [/spoiler]

Blabadon

I just can't do it. I have not been this hyped for a game since MGS4 (an to a lesser extent God of War 3). But a friggin year? Seriously? But hell, possibly the 2 best games of all time are coming out in the same month. (U3 + ME3. Elder Scrolls Skyrim also comes out that month and will definately be up there)

I am also hyped for Bioshock Infinite after watching that 10 minute gameplay demo a few months ago. Game looks amazing, but I swear I read it had a 2012 release date. This is killing me. Still, and I don't care if you think I'm a "fakeboy" or not (because given the circumstances i'm not really saying anything far fetched) but I am 100% convinced that Uncharted 3 will most likely score a 10 here, and be the highest rated game of all time on Gamerankings and Metacritic.

If you still think I'm a "fakeboy" or think what I'm saying is a longshot, go look at Uncharted 2's scores here, and where it's at on GR/MC (it's 6th on GR)

inb4 a 360 fan makes an inevitable "teh GT5 floppity flop" or "you haven't learned from GT5"
even though that is completely irrelevant to Uncharted 3. StrongDeadlift

I'm surprised how well that list came out, pretty much how i'd have it. Perhaps Civ 5 would be a tad higher though it had the advantage of the expansion to sap my time.

Well this list basically defines SW as not having any sort of superior taste to the average hype driven buyer like it claims to. So about expected.

Yeah, it doesn't look like an 'essential 50'. It looks more like people voted for their favourite blockbuster title. I was pleasantly surprised just to find Civ V on the list.

Too bad I missed the poll. Oh well, it's not like I really care.

I'm pleased that Arkham City, Crysis, Mirror's Edge, and TF2 are so high. I'd probably shuffle things around a bit, but otherwise this is a damn good list.

Another thing: Why are TF2 and Crysis considered "PC exclusives" but not Minecraft?

Lol @ Sony drones mass voting Uncharted 2 :roll:

I wonder how many of them genuinely care or like the game, and how many only praise it because of its use in the console war.

Cows gonna cow :lol:

StrongDeadlift

Not to play the sales game, but Uncharted 2 sold like what, 5-6 million copies? I'm pretty sure that the people who voted for it actually played it.
