How would we react if...

[Calerules123]

Episode Three instantly became the highest rated game of all time soon after release. Gaining 100 metascore beating out OoT(Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time)?

Or if it was rated extremely low? Becoming something like E.T. for the Atari 2600.

I would shit my pants in joy if Ep3 were to become the highest rated game of all time.
I would be incredibly disappointed if Ep 3 were rated extremely low.

I wouldn't care either way.

 

[kineaesth]

I wouldn't care either way.

This, as long as it was good.

 

[Naudian]

Uhh I'd be pretty stoked if it was "best game of all time" material, but that doesn't necessarily mean it would be the best game of all time to me.

TBH I can easily see the game getting lower ratings than expected, but not ridiculously low. I'd probably think it was some twisted joke/fake release if it was that bad.

In conclusion this thread is silly.

The lowest rating I would expect from a HL game is 60%

Lower than that and I would commit my self to the nearest insane asylum

I have to say, This.

 

[henno13]

I would play it

 

[gFrohman]

I'd be stoked about just playing EP3 irregardless of ratings - f**k the critics.

 

[Warped]

yeah reviews scores don't matter, this game will be a must have day 1 game or i kill someone

 

[Calerules123]

The only Half-Life games I've EVER seen with a lower rating than a 9 were the gearbox expansions;which to my knowledge they aren't even canon. I literally think Valve is incapable of putting out a bad game. I'll be entirely honest, I hate critics. Even if the game were rated horribly I would still play it. You should never trust critics. Like, for example, when Halo 3 came out the critics were saying it was amazing. Instead it was another overrated cash-in.

I don't imagine Episode Three will be "The Greatest Game Of All-Time" unless it's full length. Then it would have the potential. Half-Life is still regarded as either "One of the greatest games of all time" or " The greatest game of all time". Half-Life 2 did the EXACT same and Ep1 and Ep2 would have been mind-numbingly awesome if they were full length.

 

[Calerules123]

Obviously it's silly. I'm sick of everybody on every forum I've EVER been on saying that exact same sentence. If there's a topic e.g HL2 EP3, people should be able to post both silly and on-topic threads regarding the main topic regardless of how silly it is.

 

[Vegeta897]

I don't see the point of this thread.

May as well ask "how would we react if all the enemies in ep3 were bananas!?"

You are able to, and I'm able to call it silly. It's all good though, silly is acceptable. There are far worse types of threads.

Silly sounds like a name. I think I will give that name to a future pet.

"Silly sounds like a name. I think I will give that name to a future pet."

Great idea. Maybe for a rabbit with ADD?

 

[kupocake]

Ocarina of Time, along with most of the other games in its metascore vicinity, are only so high because they were graded by a fraction of the games journalists working today, who were working away in the primordial soup of the internet at that. I'm surprised that metacritic and their like don't make an effort to remove or offset the scores, though they do at least hide them away.

May as well ask "how would we react if all the enemies in ep3 were bananas!?"

I'd go ape?

 

[13LACKBISHOP]

Well it is not going to be the highest rated game of all time so why ask?

Anyway I would very suprised. I would be curious as to why considering it is not even the lenght of a full game.

I would say "In your ****ing face!" to all my friends, lol, nah just kidding, but I would be ecstatic
