Topic: Team Microtransactions (MTX) PS3 Library Deliberation Thread

@Ralizah It's OK mate, I can use the main scoreboard on Monday. It will actually be easier to put all the results in order.

Still if we can pull the none rated games tomorrow at some point we can divvy them out.

It took me longer to get around to the spreadsheet than I thought it would, but I've just been on and scored a few. I think I did that right.

@themcnoisy These are the games currently showing up as unscored on the list.

@RogerRoger It does. Thank you.

I'll take Of Orcs and Men and the two Move games.

@Ralizah @RogerRoger rated NFL head coach as not important. It used an old Madden engine for the time and the UI had serious lag which in a management game with loads of menus is a deal breaker.

@RogerRoger I've ran one piece unlimited world - sounds really good. Gave that an important as the graphics from that game set the precedent for the next batch of one piece games this gen. I have also finished the nba 2k games.

Only 6 games on the spreadsheet remain scoreless. Give it a go team!

I've played none of them by the way, so I can't join this round.

ok, I'll look into 'Of Orcs and Men'

I would rate this game as a 3 - existing. A game with a lot of potential, an original story (for a video game) and some interesting characters as well as fairly decent graphics. You take control of the Orc side (all 2 of them), but it sounds like the orcs aren't the bad guys in this one.

Unfortunately they took it out of the oven too early so the game play is a bit too repetitive for most. Also the AI was noticeably poor with guards not noticing their fellow comrades when they were in trouble and providing a low variation of attack types. But the game does have charm and is worth considering.

3 games left to rate. Go for it!

@RogerRoger it my fitness coach. I've rated it but forgot to change the name, feel free to alter the name on the spreadsheet if you like. There's another fitness game but I didn't rate that on the list.

@RogerRoger yes mate.

So we have got through boss mode. Please take a look at the spreadsheet and participate if you haven't already, every game has been scored - however compared to previous rounds I have personally rushed my homework.

Otherwise we are done and the next set of games will be launched on Monday Evening. I for one can't wait for this section to be over now.

I looked at the games I’ve played, No No Kuni, NFS: Hot Pursuit And Rivals, and overlord 2. They all look accurate to me.

I put some of my scores down on the few games I have played. I don’t think it alters the rankings. I agree with most of the placements and the work that was put down. Nothing jumps out as an egregious over- or under-ranking. Except maybe for Natural Doctrine. Anyone actually play this? It’s a 7/10 on Push Square who reviewed the PS4 version. Is the PS3 ver. really that much worse? It seems like a pretty competent strategy rpg that has some interesting ideas. The genre is not my cup-of-tea usually but I’m slightly curious about the game. It seems like a darker Valkyria Chronicles, which I liked a lot. To be fair, the range of reviews is very wide (from 2’s to 8’s) so the Metacritic is around 53. It seems very competent though, with a lot of the criticism about the high difficulty. It’s also on Vita and it looks like it would be a nice one to have on the portable.
Anyway, I’m not officially opposing it’s placement (I think it’s presently ‘Not Important’ or ‘Pointless’, I forget), I just want to know if anyone else thinks it should be higher, ... I was thinking ‘Existing’. Especially if someone has played the game then that would help, if even to help my own curiosity.

@Th3solution Re: Natural Doctrine, it has some pretty severe game design flaws that keep it from being a 3 for me. It also has a terrible presentation. I probably should have scored it a 1, considering.

@Ralizah Good to know. That’s too bad. I seem to remember there were high hopes for the game. It was supposed to be a launch game for PS4 and was delayed, as I recall.

Hi all,

I'm afraid I think I need to bow out of this for the foreseeable.I have been absolutely useless in the last 2 weeks and contributed next to nothing. I've been manic busy with work/life etc. and I normally do my Pushsquaring from work but haven't been at my desk long enough. I don't want to let anyone down.

Sorry guys, I'll chip in no doubt and have enjoyed where I have contributed.

Thank you for everyone's hard work this round. The results will be tallied later tonight and posted on the forums. We are losing people now which was to be expected so to make it more interesting I will be cherry picking the next round of games so we get to vote on good stuff.

Sorry for not having the results in last night I have had too much work on. But that's done and I'm off work now. So going shopping for Team Sonic Racing and the results will be compiled later on!

@themcnoisy The results for TSR?
