If only Nintendo hyped up the games rather than the system itself...

forum_crawler5962d ago

Some of those games look pretty mature to me. Nintendo should indeed advertise the games a lot more. Half those games I didn't even know what they were about.

Iron Man 25962d ago

There should have been at least one Mick Gordon Killer Instinct theme on here.

Rebel_Scum697d ago

Should be some tunes from the first Mortal Kombat in any list tbh.

I really like the use of Mozart’s Dies Irae in Wolfgang Krausers stage in Fatal Fury 2.

Volcanic rim for Street Fighter 4 is probably my favorite stage theme

Having to do a thing three times would make my list as #1

Jeriphro882d ago

What do you mean? Like doing the same task three times in a row?

BrainSyphoned882d ago (Edited 882d ago )

Ya, find three items, kill three mini bosses, go to three dungeons. Things of three is a tired video game sweet spot number.

For me, it's collect-a-thons. They weren't fun in Donkey Kong or Banjo and Kazooie and they still aren't fun now. Why create these wonderfully oversized, detailed worlds if you are going to just supplement gameplay with ambiguous item fetch-quests.

There are exceptions, of course, But by and large, it just shows laziness on the part of the developer.
Good article, by the way!

Jeriphro882d ago

Yeah. It is funny some of the design decisions made by developers. Another one that irks me is unskippable cutscenes, especially after you die after the cutscene and are forced to rewatch the unskippable cutscene AGAIN. I mean, who thinks that a great idea?! haha

jambola881d ago

how about not allowing cutscene skipping
that's flat out inexcusable in any game in the last 10 years

SDuck881d ago

this comments are demanding a "The 4 Horsemen of The Apocalypse of Game Design Flaws" sequel
