The Graphics are bad in LittleBigPlanet, but they're good in Mirrors Edge?.......

This is why GamesRadar is one of my favorite Websites; They deliver the happiness.

To people commenting on the kid's choice of saying Street Fighter 4 is a "button masher", even if they're younger then you they are still entitled to their own opinions. It isn't your jobs to say how wrong they are or whatever, so get over it.

Anyways, this was really cool of Gamesradar to do, they basically fulfilled all our dreams that we had when we were reading EGM and Gamepro when we were younger- being able to visit that company and play games with them all day. Pretty cool guys!

Lol, that was interesting. I gotta ask though, what about LittleBigPlanet's graphics are bad? They are bloody brilliant!

Those kids are wrong (NOTE: edited out the insensitively reappropriated epithet. No need for that.). Their favorite movies are Valkyrie and Shooter. Either they have the attention span of a fucking goldfish, they either have shitty tastes or their parents have deprived them of most of society and keep them in a dirty corner of the walk-in closet.

Go watch some damn movies kids!

Jesus Christ! Am I the only one who could appreciate the humour of this article? ...Oh, wait, two 12 year olds said Gears of War has too much blood, I'm very angry and I shall declare it on these boards! (great read, my first console was an N64 too so I can relate (even though I'm 20)).

Why are so many of you being rude to these two children? They're done a great job analysing the games they played and expressing their thoughts coherently. More coherently, I might add, than most of the insults I've read here.

Do you really think that they are objectively wrong because they disagree with you? Do you think all mankind should be united in on opinion - just so long as it's your opinion? Sheesh, I think Marcus and Spencer have shown a bit more maturity in this article.

Honorary Dorks, these kids don't know a thing about these games. Leave it to you guys to think these "kids" to review shit and give them shit. Fer teh reckord Halo Wars sucked reason why IT WAS MADE FOR THE COMPUTER!!! The only reason people are buying it is becasue the word HALO your pretty much playing Age of Empires. Those first games were a joke. They weren't even alive to know the significence(what ever) of the people who actually played these games or understand them. The Ecco the Dolphin game that little jerk was clearly being sarcastic, no little kid a boy at that would play that game unless they were 2. these kids probably hardly know the first meaning of how a game rates they are to immature, scream like a little girl, talk like they are gay in the microphone, annoying little pests. If you want real reviews ask people who have been in the world for a Hwhile, not some one whos first system was an xbox 360, try in the area of super nintendo or game gear, posibly even Atari.

I am a little offended on the inside.
I recently showed my 12 year old aunt who just started playing games some of my SNES titles(Super mario World, Yoshis Island and Super Metroid).
She was bored by them, called them silly and the reason was that you could only move left & right.
Then she went back to play Crash Bandicoot 127

I think you need to get off your high horse and realize that just because something was culturally significant when you were a kid doesn't mean that it would be relevant through the rest of time. Also you are missing the point of what this article was trying to accomplish if you are asking for a reviewer who's first system came out in the 80's (that would make them 20+ and I'm pretty sure GR already has reviewers in that bracket).

These kids provide good incite into what used to be the MAIN video game demographic and now is a group that is shunned and ridiculed by online fanboys. Why should they be considered anything less for expressing their opinion and giving honest answers?

Do you people complaining about the kid's reviews really believe they would have the same opinions as you?

Personally I loved this article and the two kids knew a hell of a lot more about games than I did when I was 12.
Clownsarescary  - 9 months 11 days ago 
Right on Jimmyjammy. I'm glad gamesradar didn't interview me when I was 12, I thought the Adams Family on the gameboy was the nuts. I would have got torn apart on the boards!
