People still play this?

Wow trying to get more page views or something?

Okami had a unique art design and shadow of the colossus had this same feeling of emptiness through the complete lack of interaction. Yet they both had a goal, and they both were extremely fun. Even Journey, a great example, had some sort of goal. This is not a game if it doesn't have that, and it certainly does not deserve an 8.0

A long time ago, Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy 6 had mature themes, while also being brilliant games (types of games that simply don't exist now.) And your giving me GTA4 as an example that gaming has grown up?

But OK, whatever you say.

@Arcturuss No

Open world gameplay is overrated.

"but are more sequels enough to elicit excitement?"

Yes , they are, because they are better than the other games out there, even if you, unlike all other reviewers, give them a 7.5.

@Jacobe8

Zelda, Super Smash Bros, Mario, Metroid..

Worth buying the console for them.

@sundfeld

wow...

The Windwaker had one of the best art designs of any game ever.

@russelloh @SultaN-s

Yeah... sure.
