Rate these as you felt about them then, not right now.

[Splaya]

Cost is for if it was worth your money or not

[Ogen]

Graphics: 8
Time needed to complete the game: 10 took me a few years to actually beat world 8 but once I'd beat it I could complete the whole game in about 30 mins using the warps so it lost its replayability
Difficulty level: 8
Cost: 10

Mackem, soon there'll be "Rate the letter" :shifty:

[Disturbed316]

Jesus christ :nono:

Cost means nothing when it comes to rating a game, and for a classic like Mario Bros, no need to rate the graphics, that would unfairly reduce the score. I still play Mario Bros on Mario All-Stars for NES and it's still one of the most difficult games I've ever played.

Gonna import my own personal rating system

Gameplay: 10
Storyline: 10
Graphics: N/A
Time Consumption: 8
Difficulty: 10 (by that I mean it's difficult at a reasonable degree)

Overall: 9.5

[Splaya]

MVP sweet Jesus, I'm stealing your rating system

[Funky Fly]

Good god, are we gonna have :Rate The ____" threads in every forum?

Anyway, I'll indulge this time. I'll use modified version ofMVP's system, since it's pretty much what I'd do anyway.

Gameplay: 10
Storyline: 10
Graphics: 9 (for the time that was pretty good)
Sound: 10 (still one of the best VG soundtracks to date)
Time Consumption: 9
Learning Curve: 9 (really easy to pick up, but not overly easy)
Overall: 9.5

I remember beating it on the NES legit, not using the warps, I can't beat NES games nowadays though, mad hard.

Me and DrA played it on Mario Allstars on Zsnes online, took us ages to beat it. :(

Although it does lag a bit online so y'know.

[Fryza]

Gameplay: 8. It's just so boring to me..
Storyline: 7. Meh.
Graphics: 5. It's horrible graphics now. At the time, I guess it was pretty good.
Time Consumption: 8
Difficulty: 7. Too many random fucking ups.

Average: 6? 7? I'm not sure how to average, so I'll say it's a 6.

To calculate the average, you take the sum of all the individual ratinga and then divide by the number of individual ratings. That is the second time in 2 days that I've explained this. I'm starting to worry about the American education system.

I can't understand math, never have been able to. :o

And it is seven, just did it..

[FacelessBum]

Gameplay: 9
Storyline: 1
Graphics: 7 (FOR ITS TIME)
Time Consumption: 6
Difficulty: 8 (by that I mean it's difficult at a reasonable degree)

Overall: 6

[MVP]

Yeah Funky's got a good rating system.

[Azriel]

Gameplay: 10
Storyline: 10
Graphics: 9.5
Sound: 10 (still have that tune in my head sometimes)
Time Consumption: 10 (difficult, but godamn fun too)
Learning Curve: 9 (I'll agree with FF here, it was pretty easy to pick up)

Despite the math, I'm still going to give it a 10. Changed the way I looked at videogames forever and that is more than enough to send it to the top.

[Ninti the Mad]

lol

Why are people rating storyline so high?

IT HAD NO STORY

[Cruiserweight 3:16]

I'm just gonna give it a 9 - it was a great game for its time, but is very easy to complete
