I don't think it is the worst, but I think STALKER should have gotten higher than 8.5.

STALKER was a bug infested game at retail, if you were one of the unlucky it was unplayable. It was almost a miracle it got an 8.5.
It wasn't that bad. It was easily playable, I rarely had any problems at all.
I have to agree with you there.. Legend of Dragoon was my favorite ps1 rpg...even more so than final fantasy. and they blasted it with crap reasons. . The game was epic in every way and brought a bunch of new elements to the table. There needs to be a sequel!The Legend of Dragoon on PS1 is a game that I loved and GS gave a low score. One of my favorites of all time, but I wouldn't say it's their worst review ever though.

MGS4. I dunno what the reviewer was smoking but I've never seen a review so far off. 5.0 max.

Are you sure its gamespot thats smoking substances or you?
Oblivion
Just a quick glance at the review gives :-
"Oblivion is hands-down better "(that morrowind)
" There's a compelling main quest for you to follow"
" you could play it like a pure action game, or like a stealth game, or like an adventure game, and it'd still be at least as good as, if not better than, games that are specialized in these regards."
"the quality of the voice acting and the writing is generally excellent."
"Almost every character in every town is unique"
"the main quest in Oblivion features a solid good-versus-evil storyline "
"You can actually role-play in this game, something that the vast majority of role-playing games have stopped offering in recent years".
"From the quality of the story and character interaction to the pure thrill of the combat to all the pleasure to be found in the game's little details"
"Impressive artificial intelligence and hundreds of believable characters"

Rofl. I have to agree with all those point :)
I wonder what the reviewer was thinking...

I agree with the first Smash Bros, that was incredibly addictive and it didn't even get AA :shock: But I tbh, I don't think the Mario Kart 64 review was too far off, I would have given it a 7. I felt the game was a lot slower than the SNES version and it's a lot slower than all the other versions, and I just didn't find it as fun as the other Mario Kart games.Lost Odyssey, which got a 7.5 but was a superb game. And I remember the first smash bros. got a low score, even though it was one of my favourite games of its time.

Nearly ALL gaming review sites gave it at least a 9.0. I think there was only 1 which gave it a score under 9.

Though a 5 out of 10 is a bit harsh. A 10 is way over rated. Based on Gameplay, it should yhave got a 7.5....
It's as if Bethesda wrote the review for him.Oblivion
