@iandizion713: btw it just went down again 74....just saying. But in the end it doesn't matter, the number it is just a number. I have bought games that had 6 in the past, just because I am fan of a series. ( but I waited until they went cheaper)
@cboye18: Check other reviers too. Nowadays is better to check other sites, or even metacritics. The game is not as good as GS says it is. I was planning to buy it, and I got all happy, until I did some research ...it has an average of 75, and GS review is the highest. :( .... anyways, that doesn't mean the number means anything, but other reviews mentioned deficiencies. In any case, I guess if you are a fan of the series, you won't probably care.
Let me remind you, that the fact that maybe you do not practice any sport. it does not mean that others think the same as you. I guess Sony was just trying to use the hype of the World Cup this year, and it is happening in this continent "America". I bet there is more people out there that like the game. I am not a soccer fan, but I think is a good selection of games. On the other hand, PS4 needs some love, we are still waiting for a great title for free.
1. It is not right to insult the reviewer. 2. Yes, probably this show has contributed on all this 3. Johnny if you want the developers to start creating games as a piece of art, let them do whatever they want. If games perform the way it suppose to. Why should we worry about the violence, politics, etc. It is just a form of expression. For example: you might not like a particular horror movie for the violence on it, but that doesn't mean that it can stop it from being the best movie ever made. I hate the Artist, I think is boring, but apparently is a great movie, and it is probably so, as a piece of art.
@Setho10 @Oyeboy94 Well that is the whole point, it should be based on standards not reviewers opinion, or at least it should have some weighted factors. Just because the reviewer things that the story is not fun, he/she shouldn't take 2 points. I am OK about other peoples opinion, they can write an article about that, or maybe I will look at the feedback on forums like this, but to write a score, it is something more quantitative.
Regardless of the score, I don't understand why the reviewer has concerns on politics and others "issues". This is GTA, what were you expecting? I keep thinking that GameSpot needs to standardize their scoring factors. I feel like GS is mixing articles and editorials with actual reviews. If the GS Editor wants to give their personal opinion, they can do it in a different way, otherwise it seems that the review is being driven by the editors feelings.
@DruidMettool Awesome, I actually saw those reviews I was thinking the same thing, and if you would like to add, this one at least has better graphics. So, I don't understand the logic on the scoring system, GS should make it standard, I think the reviews are getting bias by the reviewer's perception or emotions at the time of the review.
