Cyberpunk 2077 is near the release day and what better way to get all hype now! GS Reviews gives it 7/10!

From the sound of it, it's mostly bugs that are holding back the ratings to an otherwise stand-out RPG. So in other words if you wait a bit after launch and the game gets patched up, it should be a solid game.

All you need is SW. Don't be lured to those other sites. This is the one true message board.

But in seriousness - it sounds like crap. I'm not sure why people go there...

Ouch!!!!

According to this, the system requirments that CD Projekt red put forward are one big lie.

Gamespot already made the GTA V review about PC and Social Justice.

It's not the place to get a game review.

I agree, have you tried telling them that? :D

@seba20007: that dude's pretty good. Thanks for sharing

7/10? Dang... flop confirmed.

The hype train for this game made it seem like at least a 15/10.

I'm not waiting for shit. I'm getting this day one on steam. I don't care if theres bugs this is Cyberpunk 2077 A MASTERPIECE A PERFECT GAME I DONT CARE WHAT PPL SAY.

This is 'my" christmas present to myself. Its only 60 dollars for tons of hours of entertainment.

Oh and 7/10 was here on this site and was written by a girl well whatever I don't care about that either. GameSpot I don't have to support the main site i only like the system war forums here anyway. Who cares about there reviews on the main page.

Shouldn't you be buying the PS version?

If he buys it on PS version, it'll run like shit😂🤣

@R4gn4r0k:

Review copies have Denuvo, launch copies will be drm free.

FYI: Cyberpunk currently has DRM that is only active for reviewers and is known to reduce performance. Will not be active on launch day, therefore any testing published today will not accurately reflect launch performance. CDPR warned us of this, so we are waiting for launch day.

was on the fence about getting the game on day one or waiting for the next-gen upgrade patch..

Considering the amount of bugs impacting the experience, I'll wait for the upgrade patch.. By then, the bugs should be squashed and I can enjoy the better performance on the first playthrough

Oh, GTAV all over again with San Francisco reviewer flair?

7 is reflective of a "good" game. Its just a subjective numerical value.

“Cyberpunk 2077 isn’t just a meal, it’s the entire restaurant”

Imperfect Perfection

Nah! I will just tell you that. 😋

@seba20007: saw that earlier from GN. Means reviewers jumped the gun and couldn’t wait for the DRM to be removed. Should wait and see if the non drm versions improve performance and are bug free.

The reviewer was offended by things in the game. What kind of mindset must you have to be offended in a video game SET IN A MESSEDUP FUTURISTIC world? She should stick to reviewing Mario games, not mature titles where they don't even have censored genitals.

After having read the review, she is completely ridiculous. This is the kind of meme worthy reviews IGN has been pumping (RE2R and Doom2016 come to mind) for years, but now, we have one of our own here as well.

Some of you all are full of it. When would you all accept that there is literally no standards for reviews. Why do you all pretend as if there is only when you read reviews with point of views you disagree with? This isn't new and isn't going to change. Reviewers have downgraded games for a host of various reasons. Time for gamers to accept that reviews in their current state are just opinion pieces.

The 7/10 makes me long for the days of Feedbackula.

@Pedro: I pretty much agree with you, except for the score attached, and the additional factor of the metacritical averages. Lose the number and the tally and I'm totally on board with reviewers putting their personal feelings and politics in to their reviews.

Yay its average. TLOU 2 best game confirmed

@Pedro: agreed.. the very nature of reviewing entertainment is fundamentally subjective..

In particular, review scores are an outdated metric for video games that only serves to fuel internet wars and the associated clicks

Interesting, was watching IGN review. The guy did complain about bugs, in the end gave it a 9. I guess he didn't take bugs into his scoring.

@sakaixx: 7/10 is not average and TLOU2 was one of the worst games of the decade. Get your standards in order.

@Starshine_M2A2: please star, TLoU part 2 and Cyberpunk is the same level here on gamespot. both got 7

@sakaixx: Then TLOU2’s reviewer was paid off by Sony. That game is Ride to Hell level quality. And don’t get me started on that female man-beast thing that’s in it...

Please explain how it is transphobic. Genuinely want to know as I have not really seen how it is(nor do I know for myself since it's not out yet).

Not being facetious, I genuinely want to know.

Just came in here to see if the people who waited so long for this game are okay.

@philemono: That ain’t a ‘her’, bud.

Nope... Performance is shitty :( Even my new 3080 is gonna stuggle, unless removal of Denuvo truly increases performance.

On the comments section of the review for CP2077, i have been called a CDPR simp for defending the game. That offended me.

The woke white twitter girls are seething about this game.

I didn't even think to check those out. lol it's glorious. I'm surprised they haven't locked it, though I suppose it keeps traffic flowing. I never heard of the term "simp" until this review was published...

Nope... I'm devastated. Don't know if I can continue to play games anymore because a twitter girl didn't enjoy the game. What ever will I do now?

🤣

If she reviews Elden Ring and gives it a 7, i will write her a letter.

7 isnt so good, so I wouldnt have my hopes up, though I was never to hyped for it personally. Not my style.y

Edit: Looks like the metacritic is 91, so thats pretty dang good. Let the hype commence.

CDPR is the new Bethesda 🤣🤣

Crappy overrated open world "mature" buggy messes of filth they produce.

Interestingly, PCGamer gave it a 78/10

I don't understand how the games transphobic its got transgender options this is a huge leap most games ignore them completely even the most politically correct sjw games last of us 2 didn't have any trans stuff.

The worst part of that review is that they still ended up giving that trash game a 9/10... a few points higher than it deserves.

@hardwenzen: oh man, that comments section...

Makes us look civilized up in here

Just a spicy comment from the comments section 😊

"Seriously though... Why is this Pokemon idiot reviewing Cyberpunk? Is the rest of the staff sick with COVID?!"

@ProtossRushX: It's all about how its presented.

For example, no one would say a movie showing slaves doing work for slave owners is pro-abolitionist simply for showing slaves. Representation is about positive examples, not negative.

So do we all agree that metacritic is the only legit source for scores and not gamespot? Also a couple things to note. There will be a day one patch, this game had limited performance from denuvo, there will be updated drivers. Best advice I can give is to wait a few days and see how it performs and there might be another patch after that.

This is probably one of the few times Gamespot can get traffic (as represented by comments) comparable to any random IGN article in a decade.

How are they supposed to show "positive examples" of anything in a dystopian society like CP? It's similar to the GTA V review when the journalist said there were no positive examples of women, but it's GTA--a series were EVERYONE is portrayed in a negative light on purpose.
