A masterpiece for one can be a turd for someone else - the actual value of a given console's library is subjective and to be assessed on your own.
That's funny, considering this came from the person who flamed someone else for having a different opinion about Sonic '06.
That was not flaming, it was a conversation in good spirits. Besides, Sonic '06 hurt me on a personal level, I already stated that I'm a fan of the series since I was a child and this particular game was... beyond bad.

FireGrey being all butthurt over numbers

Not really, I was going to post the same thing as him, minus the numbers. I don't think a lot of people in this thread clicked the source (not saying you didn't). This is just for 2011, and everybody knows that the Wii was not Nintendo's focus this year as it's at the end of it's lifetime.

What you also missed out was that Ocarina of Time 3D was the highest critic rated exclusive this year and Skyward Sword the highest rated console exclusive game.
And for a 2nd year running the highest rated console exclusive has been a Wii game.
whats the point of having 1 top rated game
while the others systems are popping out tons of high rated games in comparison

zelda skyward sword came out this year

Skyward Sword isn't even the highest rated game of the year. The following beat it in aggregates this year:
  • Minecraft
  • Batman: Arkham City
  • Skyrim
  • Portal 2
While none of them (exception being Minecraft) are console exclusive, they're all games not on the Wii. Skyward Sword isn't gonna redeem a year of lousy games for the Wii.

EDIT: Highest rated this year is a tie between the PS3 version of Arkham City and the Xbox 360 version of Skyrim.

Wait what's the difference between the XBOX360 version and the other versions of Skyrim, same goes for Batman.

Arkham City:
  • PS3: 96
  • Xbox 360: 94
  • PC: 91
Skyrim:
  • Xbox 360: 96
  • PC: 94
  • PS3: 92.
For the record Skyward Sword is 93 so it's still beaten by the Xbox version of Arkham City and the PC version of Skyrim.

it's worth noting that ign gave their console war victory to the ps3 in 2011.

it was a good year for sony on the great games front. on the psn going down for a month and getting our information stolen front, not so much.

it should be noted that at least the 360 and ps3 aggregate scores are probably no different from each other, as it's fair to assume that those aggregates are within margin of error to each other.

all in all, it was a good year to be a gamer.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space

    Nor clothes 🤮 . Saves on time, soap, water and money having to wash them. :D
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @rqkaiju2, Physical media is a great source for archiving your data, none of that cloud storage shiz.
