It was totally capable of achieving AAAAE status. GS is obviously biased.

lolol

Both groups do that though so...

Kinect games>Crazy Sony Exclusive

infamous 2 got a 9.0/10 on ign

Well, that settles it for me. GTAIV got a 10, and this game is obviously better. It's got more to do, it has actual art direction outside of brown and bloom, and cookie monster doesn't call you up every 3 minutes and berate you for not bowling enough with him.

Hype polls have always been sketchy. If lems think flops are from poll-rigging, they should stop making hype threads with polls, and start tallying hype votes manually, like all the other recent hype threads.

That said, 8 is a great score... Personally, I think it should have been a bit higher. Everything I've seen and read, including the GS review, looks like solid AAA to me, relative to the genre/target audience. 9+ games are supposed to be the absolute best of their genres, and this looks like the absolute best game for preschoolers ever made. The only real complaints I've seen anywhere are that it can be repetitive... Have these reviewers ever watched shows for preschoolers, and how preschoolers react/interact with things before? Kids will watch the same movie, or even same 30 minute episode back-to-back 100 times. That's how they learn... For it to be good, it NEEDS to be simplistic and repetitive.

In other news, flop-watch 2011: PS3, KZ3 hyped AAA, 8.5 FLOP! Infamous 2 hyped AA, 7.5 FLOP! 360, Forza 4 hyped AAA, 8.5 FLOP! Once Upon a Monster hyped AAAA, 8.0 MEGAFLOP!

And in Metagame-watch 2011: PS3 1AAAE, 5 AAE, 4 AE. 360 1 AAAE, 4 AAE. 360 is only 1 AAE behind PS3, although still trailing considerably in total A+! How's that for "no games?"

I'm assuming this was a troll hype. lbjkurono23

Should change the title. I think despite the joke hype, this can be considered to have met hype, imo.

another 360 flop? damn, microsoft just can't catch a break!

In all fairness yes this thread was satire but I don't think anyone expected this game to score as highly as it did as well. Also would anyone have cared if had scored less than an even a 7?carlisledavid79
