Title: I knew it all along....
Post by: on February 10, 2001, 02:21:45 PM
The overly pro-sony Offical Playstation magazine gave Bouncer a 3/5 score. Apperently it has bad camera work and dumbass AI. They say the graphics are beautiful but the in game movies get old after the 1st time you watch them. The game also doesnt allow you to use any items in the enviroment to fight with (you cant pick up a bat and bash anyone). Seems to be a big dissapointment....sad too, cause Although I figured it would turn out bad, I really didnt want it to. And the worst part of all....they gave Donald Duck: going Qu@ckers (no, thats how its spelling) a 3.5/5.....

I\'m quite sad for Bouncer. It really was the first much-hyped PS2 game. Everyone had big exceptions for the game.

But don\'t make Bouncer an example. If the game fails, then don\'t say all the hyped games will. I know someones have done this.

I DONT WANNA START A FLAME WAR!!!! Really. I am just kinda disappointed thats all. Like I said, I kinda thought it was gonna be bad in the back of my head, but I really didnt want it to be.

I personally always figured The Bouncer would be a huge dissapointment. But I won\'t say it is. Because that varies from person to person. Some may enjoy it some may not. I don\'t think I will and I probally won\'t bother with it.

Yea when it comes to games different people have different tastes

Even when games are terrible somebody has to buy them and so that means somebody has to enopy it when others don\'t

As the saying goes - Whatever floats your boat.

great... just great... now the first game that is supposed to be great, has turned out to be not so great, i hope people dont give up on the ps2, its a great system, it just has had bad luck so far,
 i dont see how people are bringing it to false light saying that it isnt good... i think cuz of the shortage, the lazy people who couldnt get one are mad so they say crap about it they dont ecen know about....

well i personally don\'t think that a system should take blow because of a game not living up its expectations, that is not sony\'s fault that is squares fault - sqaure should learn that they need to stick to rpgs and leave the other genres to the ones who are experienced with them

I\'m testing my luck with the Bouncer (meaning I\'m buying it without bothering to rent it).  I did the same with all 8 of the PS2 games that I own now, and I\'ve been disappointed with only 1 of them.  However, back in my mind, I keep seeing the words:  "Dynasty Warriors 2."  That game got low scores from almost everyone, but it remains today as my favorite PS2 game.  I hope the same thing happens with the Bouncer.

Remember the first person who bought the game in this forum?
Bouncer who bought "The Bouncer" :D was pretty excited about it andlLiked it very very much.The only disapointment he had was the short length of the game.But there were many playable characters to unlock,level ups and stages.

I think its a GREAT game although I havent playied yet.

I wasnt looking forward to it at all. Not my type of game, but ill give it a try because of the hype, buts that the only reason.

How can you think it is a great game if you have never played it? That is like me saying "I love Chocolate" without ever having chocolate. Not trying to be a jerk here, but that comment makes zero sense.

I beleive its a great game by gamers\' opinions
(not by sites).
Thats where I base my opnion on.
I find Bouncer\'s opinion on the game pretty reliable together with the score SonyWeb gave to the IMPORT version.

But your right my comment makes zero sense.ALMOST!!

My comment wasnt precise.This is not my final opinion on the game until I play it too.
I should have been more objective.

Sorry for the inconvenience I may have occured by my comment.

I\'m seeing a trend with a lot of these games for PS2 being heralded as revolutionary or some other crap and you always have to take that stuff with a grain of salt.  When there\'s only 1 game at a time coming out everyone is watching it like a hawk.
