Topic: Team Microtransactions (MTX) PS3 Library Deliberation Thread

Def Jam is a fighting game?! Who would have thought?

The list is done apart from the games that @Ralizah is working on.
@leucocyte @LieutenantFatman @Rudy_Manchego @Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy

Please check it and then confirm you are happy
@themcnoisy fyi

Yep, perfect, good job everyone.

@ZeD I'm not in a position to edit the spreadsheet right now, but if you want to on my behalf, both of my games would go into unimportant. DtR is only interesting for having a good dog companion character, and DenBun's only real appeal is its crossover anime cast. Otherwise, I'll do it later.

@Ralizah done
@themcnoisy list is locked. Im currently on mobile and cannot move the list across

@ZeD cheers mate thanks move it tomorrow as I'm currently in the same boat as you lol.

Okay.

As usual, things are set up.

Ok, I put my scores down. While I enjoyed the latest God of War on PS4, I found I couldn't get into the earlier ones at all, they just didn't capture my imagination. I didn't get far enough in any of them to be able to give them a score.

I've played these in our list this week:

God of War III, God of War: Ascension, God of War Collection, God of War: Origins Collection, GoldenEye 007: Reloaded, Gran Turismo 5, Grand Theft Auto IV, Grand Theft Auto V, GRID Autosport, Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock

@RogerRoger
Thanks matey, always appreciated. I've never played either version so it's interesting to me to get some background on a game like this one.

@RogerRoger @LieutenantFatman

Conversely - I'd say that the highlight of 007 Reloaded was the trailer. COD comparisons would be indeed be misplaced flattery.

Looks at GTA V's score Nobody else played the last gen version of GTA V?

RE: Goldeneye Reloaded...

I definitely don't see that game being classed as "important." It's just not.

My immediate intuition, given that it doesn't push the hardware and probably hasn't inspired much of anything in the general gaming world, is "unimportant," where I've already placed many decent games that just don't move the needle at all, but I do want to check out reviews, gameplay footage, etc. before making any judgments. So "existing" is a possibility.

I guess what I'm saying is that I'd like to rate it, if the others don't mind.

@KALofKRYPTON You sound like you have experience with the game as well. Care to share your thoughts?

@RogerRoger Everything is worth considering, and I'd weigh what other forum members have to say at least as heavily as what traditional "critics" have to say. If you have any other contributions, I'd like to hear them.

@Ralizah It was just... Disappointing. It looked bad, had OK level design and mostly just left you wanting to play GodenEye - which is saying something!
There are at least 4 James Bond games released earlier, and some on older systems that are way better.

@Foxy-Goddess-Scotchy Folklore best come out as at least Important!

@RogerRoger GoldenEye has dated horribly, I've no wish to play it again - as with pretty much everything else on the N64, it would just be disappointing

I've only played Goldeneye on the Wii. I enjoyed it for what it was, though thought it had some frustrating design issues and actually felt a little dated in places. It was reasonably well received on the Wii - a system not known for FPS games. On the PS3, however, the genre was very well established, and I have to be honest and say that Goldeneye doesn't come close to the best FPS games available. As big a Bond fan as I am, my own personal take would be that it is "existing".

i've added my scores. i gave a few 5's to games i don't even like (gran turismo 5, GTA IV, GTA V), because i see their importance to PS3, and wider gaming. GT5 is the biggest selling exclusive PS3 game by a fair distance, it's sold more than 12m copies, and is one of the main reasons why PS3 started gaining momentum after a couple of years of sluggish start. after GT5 came out, PS3 was outselling the X360 by 2:1 in Europe, before surpassing its install base by quite a margin. GTA IV and V... are GTA. i tried both of them.. i just can't get on with rockstar games. i can see they're expertly made, and big in scope.. but it's like they gave the design of gameplay controls about 5 minutes worth of attention. clunky and unplayable for me.

Feel free to check our thread if you like where I discuss the Guitar Hero franchise. I’m not an expert so if anyone has direct experience please chime in, but according to my research, your game Guitar Hero 3 is deemed the best of the series, so probably very important. Maybe at least important. But I think it really set a standard for the genre before all these other games killed it off.

Just to let everyone know, I'm going to be out of town for the rest of the week starting tomorrow evening, so I won't be much help with this batch. I'll try to update the list when possible, though.

I've cleaned up the spreadsheet and the list.

I'll be taking on 4 games to rank. I'll post my scores today:
Germany's Next Top Model 2011 dtp entertainment AG
G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra Double Helix Games
The Golden Compass Shiny Entertainment
The Guided Fate Paradox Nippon Ichi Software, Inc.

That should leave 12 games between the rest of the team members.
