thumbs down
this is a definite 5.
On a 360 console where gamers are drowning in fps games, a quality action adventure platformer is a breath of fresh air.

Says you.

I think the problem is that it's a little too easy, turns into more of a sightseeing tour than a game. I personally liked it a lot but I'm not sure it's a 5/5 game.

Obvious flame bait. Try to add some meaningful conversation next time in a topic please.

At least you did more stuff in Banjo than run on walls and climb vines.

Plus, Kazooie is a lot more comical to have on your back than Elika.

nice comparison of two games that are very alike. ;)

This game should have been a 2. I collected 300 shiny orbs and sent it back to GameFly. This game was pretty awful.

Thank God these games are 100% comparable, with their rediculously similar control schemes, game mechancics, and underlying philosophy..

Posting in a Mugugipan thread.

I can explain why.

Opinions.

Sorry this game deserved a 0 star rating for the ending IMO

"how is this game an 8.5??? so the reviewer thinks its garbage to give it such a low score??? it's a 9.7 at least!!!111!! biased much???"

Ok?

"ZOMG GAME "A" GOT AN 8.8 AND DESERVED A 10. GAME "B" GOT A 9.4 AND DESERVED A 7.  THIS IS BULLSHIT!!!!!"

It's all just opinions, bro.  Can't change 'em, just gotta live with 'em.  Obviously you found lots of enjoyment from Prince of Persia and so did a lot of people, but other people probably enjoy Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts more.  It's all just opinion and preference.

Eh, since late 2008, reviews have been handled a little more scrupulously. I mean GTA4 got a perfect score from most mainstream publications after all, due to hype and expecation. The games journo industry facepalmed and is now being more careful.

At least that's my explanation.

In this poster's opinion:

Prince of Persia: 1/5
Nuts & Bolts: 1/5

So, whatever.

Prince of Persia sucked. Period?

It was a great game, I really enjoyed it. But I think 4 is a fair score due to it's short length, linear progression, and low difficulty.

N&B = 6/5

While the graphics of the "New" Prince of Persia were really good, the platforming sucked , it has a broken combat system and the plot is really stupid with an even more retarded ending. 

BAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!

Last I checked reviews are opinion based articles, the review is expressing an opinion and so are you. "

The thing is that Nuts 'n Bolts is a phenomenal game. I haven't played Prince of Persia, so I can't say anything against it, but you're knocking the wrong game in comparison imo.

I loved it. Many felt it was too easy because the gameplay was so simplified. To be honest, I found that to be the hardest part of the game since I've often try doing more than necessary instead of letting the game pretty much take the reigns for me. Once I adjusted to the toned down and less demanding style of play, I thought everything worked out just fine. I think Prince of Persia is a truly excellent game, however, hunting down orbs would likely get very repetitive to many people, but as kind of an in-game collectionist, I didn't mind too much and enjoyed trying to figure out how to capture the more difficult ones. I have no objection to giving it a 5/5 but I think a 4/5 is fair enough. Oh, and dude. Don't be hatin' on Banjo. Tell 'em, Cheapoz! 6/5, ya herrrdddd?? WAT? SAY SUMTHAN!!1

Nah. I loved Prince of Persia, but if it is a 5, Sands of Time is a 7.

Also, Brad docked a point for Ubisoft having the balls to call Prince of Persia.
