      What sux also is when these votes happen, a lot of people vote higher due to hype of a recent release title. Give it a year or 2 and a game that same person played 5 years ago will think is better than the one they votee higher for. That’s how shit songs get votd so high on triple js top 100.

   Ah the show where the reviews are always 0.5-1 point apart and in total agreement thus defeating the point of having dual reviewers.

      They do normally give very similar overall scores (but not *all* the time) however I find that they tend to give a nice balanced overview of how a game plays between them. The scores don’t really add that that much to their reviews anyway.

         If you check the reviews a large portion of dialogue between both hosts start with “Yeah”. It just to me defeats the purpose of having 2 separate hosts. I don’t mean disagreement on absolutely everything, but I find it strange that there is rarely a “I think you are completely wrong about that”.

         I mean look at the internet, look at metacritic (which is by no means a bible) but it goes to show the difference of opinion between reviewers.

         If they had a third like Goose in on all reviews then maybe we’d see some differing opinions, but to me its way too “Me too! I’m giving it a 6″

         (Me too! I’m giving 6.5.”)

            For sure, they do agree *a lot* and they also rarely give negative reviews unless something is really overtly terrible and almost objectively a waste of anyone’s time. I guess I just tend to find it a good indication of whether I’d like something or not (my tastes are pretty mainstream) if I wanted to play it. I agree that getting Goose in on the reviews couldn’t hurt, like they do with Dave Callan on occasion.

            I think part of the problem is that they’re both broadly into (and not into) the same kind of games.. like, they’re both not really into sports games or driving games, both into RPGs.. that kind of thing.

            Sometimes they do give slightly different viewpoints on the same thing though, but then eventually they reach the same conclusions, which is frustrating.

            I do tend to prefer the reviews Goose gives in general, but I think that’s because they get Goose reviewing the games they’re just not interested in, which is sad.

            I think having two reviewers is fine without having Goose reviewing things all the time, but they really need to have people who aren’t into the same kind of game reviewing things, that way you may get some proper opposing viewpoints about games and various mechanics.

               To be fair, the discussions on the forums were merely between other forums users, as the hosts/producer etc completely stopped posting in the forums at all after the whole Junglist incident. Pretty much exactly to the day, like there was some directive handed down from up high.
               I know because I posted several passionate pleas regarding this ‘same same’ reviewing while the forums were still open 🙂 Once the forums closed, I stopped watching the show, and haven’t missed it in the slightest.
               For me it really went from eagerly looking forward to watching every show (during Jungs time), to watching more out of habit than enjoyment, to stopping watching entirely and not looking back, nor missing it at all. Much better reviews to be read online, as you can at least get contrasting viewpoints rather than two yes-men.

      In the old show, with different (better) reviewer, there was once a reviewer who distinguished himself from Bajo and gave a reason for the score, and for the show in general. Ah, those were the times…

    Also a vote like this is really “Most Popular Games”, not “Best Games”. Especially since anyone who doesn’t agree with my picks clearly has a deffective opinion generator.

    Final Fantasy 9

    But damn it was tough to choose between my shortlist, I made the choice to include only one title from each franchise and there were classics like Homeworld, Commander Keen, Metal Gear Solid 3, Uncharted 2, Prince of Persia, Lemmings, Banjo Kazooie, Lylat Wars, God of War 1 and more. In the end I had to judge based on whether I’d still enjoy playing them today, how many times I’d replayed them, the length of time I spent with each game when I first played them and the memories I associate with them and these 3 bubbled up to the surface.

    Also if your favourite is not on the list you can get it added.

    I voted for mostly really old games that no one remembers, and will never get anywhere when most of GG’s audience seems to be in their late teens/early 20s lately… but games like Starflight, and Ultima Underworld II were awesome and really influential back in the 80s/early 90s.

    And yeah, 3 votes just isn’t enough.

    Things like this are always tricky. There’s “favourite” and then there’s “important”. Wolfenstein 3D is arguably the most important FPS until maybe Half-Life, but it’s close to unplayable now. However, I’d vote for Bioshock or SW Battlefront over those two as far as games I prefer playing.

    Anyway, cast my vote for all the good it’ll do, as it’ll probably end up being dominated by Mario & Pokemon games.

       There’s “favourite” and then there’s “important”.So true. There’s also a difference between those and “best”, too.

       I’d totally go Doom over Wolfenstein 😛

    I have a feeling that with all the young people watching GG that the results will be skewed towards newer games. There would be kids voting who’ve never even played Super Mario Bros (NES) or Elite (C64) or Tetris (GB) to make a comparison. The votes should be weighed somehow by the age of the game. If people are still voting for a 20 year old game, that’s got to be worth more than the same number of people voting on a newly released game. Maybe multiply the vote count by the square root of the age of the game or something.
