I for one enjoyed Duke Nukem: Forever (but eventually sold) and I also kinda enjoy Blacksite: Area 51 just cause thats the only Area 51 game to come to PS3. Cannot wait for annihilation map pack for area 51 in black ops!!
Oh yeah. I finished Hunted: the Demon's Forge a while back (think it got 5/10 from this place) and I really enjoyed that game a lot. I'd give it an 8.5/10. Now I'm playing Nier (another 5/10 from here) and I'd give it about a 9/10. Truly one of the best stories I've seen in a game in a long time.
They can take their half baked, biased, paid-for reviews and stuff 'em.
Yupe, lots of them. The most recent one is WET. I bought the game 3 days ago and I've been playing it for a bit everyday, and I'm shocked at how fun it is. Granted it's not very polished and has many flaws, but overall it's extremely fun. I usually don't enjoy a lot of shooters but this one was a delightful surprise.
I downloaded the duke nukem demo and it was probably one of the funnest demo's i've played(even with the bugs) I didn't know whether to buy it or not because of the ratings, will rate when its like 10$.
Mercenaries 2: World in Flames. Anyone who says it's not fun to nuke and carpet bomb a town, and ride through the ruins on a motorcycle equipped with dual miniguns, does not know what fun is.
Legends of Wrestlemania (6 or 6.5), its not the best game but i love it. its old school wrestling so the game play and moves arnt like SD vs Raw, its a dif type of play. great roster, some left out but great CAW. you gotta think about it playing it that its 80's wrestling not surrent day
You consider a 8.0 bad? Thats a bit of a stretch... I've never really bought any bad games, the only game i enjoyed which had a terrible score is Sonic Shuffle for DC... I really liked that game.
When I was younger I could play and thoroughly enjoy just about any game regardless of its scores.
But now that I'm a little older and my tastes have developed a bit and I don't have as much time for all the games I want to play, I'm a lot pickier than I used to be. I'll still pick up games that I'm not sure I'll enjoy, but I just won't pay more than $10 for them. Regardless of their score, sometimes I end up loving them and sometimes I curse myself for buying them.
I was enjoying Lost Planet 2 a lot until I came to that wretched train level. My god, I have never seen something so horribly made. I was psyched for this part the whole game and it just ruined the experience for me. I think LP 2 had a 5.5?
Most of the games I like usually score about a 6 - 7, so for the most part I don't really pay attention to the numbers. You have to pay attention to the content, watch game vids, etc. Otherwise even highly-rated games might not appeal to you.
I have almost 50 games for my Wii. that alone means i enjoy games with low ratings. But ratings are crap. I'm playing FF Crystal Bearers on my Wii that i got new for $15 off ebay. it is better the FF13 on my PS3. FF13 isnt even an rpg IMO. But because FF CB has kiddie graphics and has a very unusual fighting system, no one would even consider it.
I play anything pretty much and scores mean nothing to me. On PS3 all I can think of currently is Lost Planet 2 and Duke Nukem tho. That being said there are some I can't stand.. someone in this topic said Shellshock and to me that game is extremely boring and looks so bad it starts to make my sick.
yea don't ever rely on ratings, all they are is opinions... this is an old one, a fps called *Black* came out years ago for ps2 and xbox, its the best fps i've played till this day other than bioshock, it got like a 6.0 rating though all because it had no multiplayer, just goes to show 2 specific things- 1. how shallow game reviewers can be. and 2. how great a fps game can be when its not handicapped by mp. game reviews are just opinions and opinions are like butt cracks, everybody has one.. lol
Dante's Inferno and Nier are the more recent ones that come to mind. Loved both of 'em, especially Nier. Very zelda like - and loved the take-off's of other games like the RE series (mansion :D)
Oh yeah. I finished Hunted: the Demon's Forge a while back (think it got 5/10 from this place) and I really enjoyed that game a lot. I'd give it an 8.5/10. Now I'm playing Nier (another 5/10 from here) and I'd give it about a 9/10. Truly one of the best stories I've seen in a game in a long time.

i totally agree NieR is one of the best games i've played this generation
Most of the games I've played this gen are low end score games. Nier, Medal Of Honor, Dead To Rights. Just to name a few. I've also enjoyed more low end score games then higher end games.
Most recently, The Fight Lights Out for the Move. Certainly not the dud that most "professional" (and I use that word loosely) reviewers made it out to be.
