Momma There Goes That Man Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Id probably give 6 games a 10 in my lifetime. I get the idea that no game is perfect but these were pretty much perfect to me. Zelda: Ocarina of Time Red Dead Redemption Halo: Combat Evolved Donkey Kong Country 2 Perfect Dark N64 Edit: The Last Of Us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemocystem Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Madden hasn't been rated higher than 8 by IGN in years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Sinister Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I just think 10's should he sacred. Like once in a generation. Anything that gets rated between a 9.5 and a 10 should be enough for folks to get the picture. Throwing around 10's every year/ two years just screams corporate cheeseball. I can only think of a few games that I have played the last 15 years that can even begin to approach that threshold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Demon Souls and the first Uncharted would be in my listing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaybrant Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I had heard ramblings about a new MGS game but had no idea it was so close to launch. Nice surprise.Might be a dumb question but is it a full game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only think of a few games that I have played the last 15 years that can even begin to approach that threshold. I tend to agree...which is why i was shocked at the 10 by IGN. I think their last 10 was for Last of Us. Gamespot gave it a 10 as well, curiously.For me, the closest of late were Skyrim, & Bioshock...but i realize the subjective quality in those games, which loses the "transcendence" factor that really makes a game a 10 to me. Face it...a game that deserves a perfect rating has to be so good, that most gamers would play it, & enjoy it, regardless of what genre it belongs to. Which is why none of the Souls games would qualify imo, as well as the aforementioned. Re: IGN...i will say that they seem to fanboy it up with PS4 titles, & anything from Rockstar. I don't even think they have to try with the next GTA to get a high score from them. Admittedly i'm not a fan of the GTA series....at all...but i can't see how it gets such high praise. If i'm being honest...they haven't been better than 8.5 for my taste. It's just my opinion...but there are much more well put together games that deserve higher praise than that series.

codeorama Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I got madden and played for 2 hours last night. It's the best one in a while. I liked last years. But this one is a lot better. The presentation, the running game, the passing and receiving. It's an upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, especially when it comes to GTA IV, which it is a complete joke that they gave it that. I always come back to GTA IV when I rant on the 10 rating. Demons Souls def gets a 10 from me. Uncharted 2. Metal Gear (Sons of Liberty). Tekken 3. No Mercy. Goldenye. Maybe Silent Hill 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExoDus84 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I'd give Witcher 3 a 10. And Dragon Age: Origins. Both of these games were phenomenal. I think I liked the Witcher ever so slightly more, though both of these are some of the best RPG's ever. I'm looking forward to gaming in October/November. Battlefront, Rainbow Six Siege, The Division, Halo 5, and a few others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That only slightly helps though because I'm going to be broke and jammed up all winter.

Mufumonk Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I'd give Witcher 3 a 10. And Dragon Age: Origins. I tried jumping right into Witcher 3 immediately after getting my platinum in Bloodborne and the combat felt so generic and clunky. I need to cleanse the palette a bit before giving W3 another shot.

Mr. Sinister Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Its a bit weird coming into another rpg immediately after playing a Souls game. Kinda like batting after the Homerun Derby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gamebreaker Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 I'd give Witcher 3 a 10. And Dragon Age: Origins. Dragon Age:Origins, along with Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic are on my short list of best games ever. Man, Bioware used to really bring it.

Man, Bioware used to really bring it.Argh...forgot about KOTOR...funny too, just went on a rant with my Brother about how KOTOR is easily the best Star Wars title of all time, & it's not even close. Origins is another one i couldn't get through. I just felt ground into oblivion, & too restricted by the non-scaling enemies. I kept getting angry/frustrated that i would burn through an area, only to face an impossible group of foes. Then have to eventually let myself succumb to the fact that i would just have to grind up, & return at a yet to be determined time. Also very buggy. Had a lot NPCs just vanish mid-mission, or a fetch item go missing, only to return inexplicably after a few restarts. My personal favorite though, was the horses....i don't know what sort of programming was governing those things, but it certainly wasn't logic. Similar reason why Skyrim falls short of a 10 imo as well. When it was all said & done, it just doesn't appeal to a broad enough audience to fall in that "transcendent" category. Could say the same for Souls games, SH2 (though i LOVED that game), & Deus Ex. Deus Ex: Invisible War is on my top list of gaming masterpieces....but so many people just couldn't get into it. Same could be said for HL/HL2, & Portal. Absolutely stunning games, but just didn't really make you want it that badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momma There Goes That Man Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Yeah so GameInformer posted "The Basics" of Metal Gear for newcomers to enjoy the game...this was appealing to me since I don't kno a thing about MG series. Well, if that recap is supposed to help anyone, forget it. Made no sense. Probably more confused now than I was before I read it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But even then I had no clue what the hell was going onUnfortunately, I don't think I'll be able to get into this series starting so far behind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
