PS3: Is it worth it?

[MISTER BIG T]

I'm a Nintendo fan and I think it fucking sucked and didn't live up to the hype, so where does that leave us?

I don't know but I'm sure you're about to tell me.

The controls sucked

How so? Oh well, let's look down and see if you can explain that one to me.

the graphics were less than amazing

So there could be Game Cube version

the gameplay was boring and repetitive,

Are you kidding? This game had the least repetitive gameplay. One minute you're riding around field dodging flame arrows of golbin riders, the next you're challenging their leader to a duel on a bridge. And the finale against Ganondorf has got to be the greatest one I've ever seen in any game ever made.

there was no real voice acting

Voice acting does not always equal a good game, and it takes much more space and thus causes more load times and machine stressing. Plus, the hero doesn't speak at all which would make the game a bit akward.

and the MIDI quality music was abysmal.

This is more of a taste preference but I thought the music really fitted in the game. What, should there have been more rap and heavy metal or something?

The Wii's controls were non-intuitive and poorly implemented,

And this is your explanation on why the controllers suck?

On Wii, you perform the spin slash with one good wrist move. On GC, you have to hold your button down which feels very akward after trying the game on Wii. The aiming also works much better and faster.

and the series breaking canon by making Link left-handed in the Wii iteration was collosally stupid.

It's not really colosally stupid at all. This isn't the same Link you dolt. None of the Links, save Link to the past and Links Awakening and the Oracle series together are the same Links.

Fuck popular.

Yeah, fuck successful game. Fuck public opinion! FUCK THE REVIEWS!!!

When you break down the game into little components like that and examine each one, the only thing that Twilight Princess really had going for it was a 20 year legacy with a decent story and a good concept on paper.

You didn't break the game down successfully nor did you even mention the awesome things in the game. After the shitty tutorial hour, the game's almost non stop action.

When you factor in the boring gameplay

If by boring you refer to good and fun gameplay, yeah this game is pretty boring.

, the mediocre graphics and terrible sound

Yeah! There's no anti aliasing or bump mapping! Grr, the game doesn't have realistic shadows! The sounds aren't fully orchestated (However you spell it) so clearly this game has less value than some other adventure game with all those things in it!

, you don't have much left for a game with no replay modes, do you?

I never ever want to play the stupid start over again, no wonders and awesome features would make me replay that.

As always, fanboys win the day while the true gamer with a critical eye for quality sits back and sadly shakes his head.

You know, this is the reason I even replied to you.

"True gamer" is such a bullshit term when used in this context that I'll just simply call it "whiner" instead; because all you do is whine and bitch and not enjoy a perfectly great and enjoyable game. "True gamers" as you say can never be happy, they always seek things to whine about just so they can point out the game isn't THAT good so they can continue to feel superior when they bitch.

What's even more incredible is how you somehow place yourself above everyone else by saying fuck the popularity and all else, while you try and act as if no one else's opinion matters "Fanboys win, we True gamers shake our heads" which probably implies something along the lines that if you enjoy games, you can't enjoy Twilight Princess? I am sorry, I just have no idea what the term" True gamer" means obviously. I wouldn't have even posted any of that boring stuff if you had just went on and said you didn't think it lived to premiere of the previous games and that you yourself don't think it's as good.


By the way, Midna has got to be the sexiest midget wearing stone helmet ever made. With added bonus of not yelling "HEY!!" every other second.
