Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess Gamespot Review

Hello, world...

So...people on the Legend of Zelda forum at GameSpot are ranting about this...

I can't really say anything about the review since I haven't played it yet. So yeah...

So because of this review...everyone is bashing Jeff! People are calling him fat, which is HILARIOUS! My bad, everyone is REALLY bashing Jeff!

I'd like to see how this discussion goes at AT

Without further ado...

Discuss

BTW, I would just like to say..."We will remember this date...in infamy" (11/17/06)

 
lol Jeff Gerstmann is the most elite editor out there ;( ...

Jeff Gertsmann zelda's review :
Legend of zelda 10
http://au.gamespot.com/n64/adventure/legendofzeldaoot/index.html
Wind Waker 9.3
http://au.gamespot.com/gamecube/adventu...ofzeldathewindwaker/review.html?page=2
zelda link to the past 9.2
http://au.gamespot.com/gba/rpg/legendofzeldaalinkttp/review.html

I told you so ;( that Wii version was nothing more than port but some people live in Nintendo imagery hyped up fantasy land. The funny thing is that jeff would know what kind of chaos would he unleash on himself by giving Zelda a 8.8 score. The dude would probably the most well know game editor in America and he is a game junkie ;( play anything and everything. He also has a buying addicting problem ;( ... He has 3 PSP , 5 Playstation 2 , 2 XBOX 360 , 2 DS and loads of console.
 
Ehh who cares what he rated it? If I ever wrote a review of Halo i'd probably give it a 4/10. More than likely i'd be hung from a tree.
His biggest complaint seemed to be about some of the graphics anyway.

Well, I don't really care. I just want to know how the people at AT feel about it, that's all. Not trying to start an Anti-GameSpot league or something! 😀

Just listen to 1st 10mins of the podcast and they talk about Wii and zelda. Then you may understand why it got that score.

As for Greg K he is alright editor but he has no way near to Jeff. Greg K likes almost everything ... example he gave Perfect Dark Zero a 9.0 when the game was totally crap , he basically likes every game and is way more forgiving than most editor. If he review Zelda i bet it would have gotten better score.

He is an Halo Hater too 🙂

Also he was way more annoyed by the sound coming out of the controller than graphic but you wouldn't understand it untill you play the game.

My God...PDZ got a 9.0?!??! *shoots self in the head*
 
For some reason I knew he'd give it less than a 9. He's really unforgiving with his reviews! I remember when he gave Super Mario Sunshine an 8.0...some fanboys where threatening with egging his house :laugh:

Alot of people from other forum are going crazy over jeff score. Some people are calling him an idiot and other are calling him a person who knows crap all about games.
 
He's just a harsh video game reviewer. If you don't like his score, don't read the article or take it like a grain of salt.

Don't forget that he's fat!
 
see when i read the review he had some good points. the Wii really is dated hardware. he said it in his review but he said the Graphical Art is great but he said the textures look not so good and that the music sounds like it's recycled from N64 and it should be a full orchestra with the added capacity of the full sized DVD now. Also about the gameplay being recycled also. I'm going to play this game no matter wut

Yeah, I hear that. I am definitely going to play this game!

BTW, here's something to laugh at!
 
How in the hell is an 8.8 a harsh rating? A high "Great" is not bad at all. What's really pathetic is the dumbasses crying about how it deserved higher when they haven't even played it. Stupid console shitheaded fanboys. :disgust:
 
The similarities that he talked about between Ocarina and the Twilight were very apparent, even in the video review, without him saying so. I was actually surprised how similar it looked and sounded. It's a new adventure yes, but this and the Wii-mote problems are there. Besides, 8.8 is still a good game.

I just haven't seen any other review criticize the Wiimote controls. They all say its far more intuitive than playing the GC version.

My only dissapointment is that they stuck with using a MIDI score. Come on Nintendo, it isn't 1993 anymore.

Yeah, I know I'll be playing it for sure. I'm a big time zelda fanboy.

But I watched the video review and that music might as well be playing off a N64! :shocked: I have to agree with Gerstmann on that one.

yea i know. with the added space they finally have and the time they had, they could have redone the music to be on par with games like final fantasy. obviously they didnt want to change much since it "aint broke" but i cant wait till my next paycheck to get this...........2 more weeks..................😀

Considering that this is the best looking game for the Wii at launch, and that its follows a legacy of Ocarina of Time... wait what am I saying? I must be a sh!theaded console fanboy for liking new game play methods :roll:
