my vote thread says nothing about adding new systems to the metagame. if that's what it was for, i would have mentioned it.

[QUOTE="Eddie-Vedder"] What is it you don't understand? If a 5$ tower defense arcade game is equal to a AAA GOTY retail PC game, then so are handheld games and so are IOS and Anroid games, they are all games, they are all reviewed here and on Metacritic. Obviously this is nonsense, but CaseyWegner is trying to make this rule happen. Eddie-Vedder

[QUOTE="CaseyWegner"]

[QUOTE="Eddie-Vedder"] You have nothing to do with adding new systems, this is system wars the only reason they didn't count before was because they had no retail games. Handhelds didn't count either because of the standard difference, if you ignore the standards they now count. Eddie-Vedder

where are you getting this from?

where are you getting that the reason handhelds/mobile phones/tablets aren't part of the metagame is because they had no retail games?

Also Stevo stop being a fanboy troll.

No, unless it's 19.99 or higher.

A good game is a good game by any means regardless of the arbitrary numerical value placed upon it, however, fact remains that value plays a role in reviews--Journey, a two hour downloadable game, is not on the same level as Uncharted 3. Scores can be skewed because of this.

I place the limitation on the price only because we have allowed PC game expansion priced as so be counted in the metagame, and I believe a $20 downloadable game can be compared to full retail games at times.Stevo_the_gamer

We agree on this, you're just trolling.

[QUOTE="Stevo_the_gamer"][QUOTE="Eddie-Vedder"] Wrong again, noone cares about Kinect/Move games and they count... Eddie-Vedder

people have hotly debated xbla and psn games even though they don't count.

[QUOTE="Eddie-Vedder"][QUOTE="Stevo_the_gamer"]That must explain why Kinect and Move have always been hotly debated here. Tell me, how hotly debated are Android and iOS in the realm of Xbox and PS3? Go ahead, I'll wait.Stevo_the_gamer

[QUOTE="Stevo_the_gamer"][QUOTE="Eddie-Vedder"] They're debated cause noone cares yet they count, so ppl make ownage threads for things like Fable the journey. I thought you were smarter then that Stevo. If arcade games counted they'd be a lot more debated too. Anything that can be used as ownage is hotly debated in SW. Eddie-Vedder

Oh wait...

you seem to be the only one talking about including ios/android/etc. in the metagame. everybody else seems to understand that they aren't included.

Your logic is nonsense. "Download-only games aren't up to the standards of retail games, so they shouldn't count." That could easily be taken to "twenty-dollar independent games are graded at lower standards than sixty-dollar triple-A games, so they shouldn't count."PannicAtack

it makes the whole metagame a joke Eddie-Vedder

I'm thoroughly enjoying this little meltdown.

All over iOS/Android games.

Oh who am I kidding, that's just a cover for another issue that's weighing far more heavily on Mr. Eddie's mind. :lol:

[QUOTE="Eddie-Vedder"][QUOTE="Stevo_the_gamer"] Stevo, I'm not sure if you know how to read, but the change is for next gen, it wouldn't change crap for this gen, and I'm pretty sure according to the SW metagame the PS3 is in last place. And there are plenty of die hard lems with me on this. So wtf are you talking about? Stevo_the_gamer

Wrong again! Seeing as you b**ched out of asking Casey about the rule change (as I knew you would, because you knew what the answer would be), I went ahead and did it for you.

[QUOTE="The_Game21x"]

He's gonna fight this losing battle to the end man, even if he has to take it to the highest courts in the land! :lol:

By the way, do you think this would this retroactively apply to the soon-to-be-last gen consoles as well or would this take effect only for next gen platforms?

CaseyWegner

it should be retroactive.

Man you're so transparent we could use you as a window. :lol:

Playstation is a brand, Playstation 3 is a system. Think long and hard about the difference.

How is that trolling?

And if I was a closet troll/lem, wouldn't be arguing for counting all DL games?

It's gotta be taking its toll, what with his last (and really, only) line of defense crumbling around him.

So sad and so utterly hilarious at the same time. :lol:
