Really? You think I'm doing this to pony up to Logan?
Logan and I disagree about EVERYTHING. Movies, games, music, even as far as religion.
The ONE common thread between us is that we both love OoT. So does EVERYONE. You play it for 40 minutes, die, and then stop playing it. It isn't like...
id Software (a NOTORIOUSLY PC centric developer) is using 360 as the lead platform for RAGE and DooM 4.
if that doesn't speak volumes to the shifting tide away from PC gaming I don't know what will.
Highest rated Metacritic game of all time is GTAIV with a 98/100. Second is Mario Galaxy and Mario Galaxy 2, tied for 97/100. Third is Half-Life 2, with 96/100. So yeah, if Skyrim/Batman did those kinds of figures, they'd come close to breaking records.
I'm extremely bored, so why don't we predict Metacritic scores for some big upcoming releases, and see who gets closest when the dust settles?
-Deus Ex: Human Revolution: 89
-Gears of War 3: 94
-Batman: Arkham City: 96
-Skyrim: 97
-RAGE: 84
-Uncharted 3: 93
-Skyward Sword: 96...
Let's see...In the October-November range, I can buy:
-RAGE
-Batman: Arkham Asylum
-Battlefield 3
-Skyrim
-Halo: CE Anniversary
-Assassin's Creed: Revelations
-Metal Gear Solid: HD Collection
Or I could "buy" a patch and some DLC to a game I already have...OH WAIT, I CAN'T. They want me to buy...
