I just got my copy of GTA4 at the midnight release at my local gamestop. I have only played a few mission but so far I love it. Anyway, I just stopped by here to see what the reviewers gave it. I was amazed to finally see a game get a perfect 10. Its the first time I've ever see them do it. Then I went into their big list of games and saw that a few others got a perfect score as well. Some of them I can see like Ocarina of Time and Chrono Cross. But then there are other games that got a perfect score such as Soul Calibur. I mean I love fighting games and SC is no slouch but I'm kind of baffled as to how it got a perfect score. And the thing that really shocked me and even slightly upset me was that frikkin THPS3 got a perfect score. What in the hell were they thinking?!!! Do the reviewers drink on the job or something?! How can they bestow a perfect score upon a skating game and not give it to the truly great games. Like the Halo series, the Metal Gear Solid series, or God of War (one or two), or just about any frikkin game in the Resident Evil series. Those are a few of the games in my opinion that deserve it. Well, maybe I should create my own gaming site and review games with others such as myself who actually know what a good game is. Thats my rant for now folks. Peace out.

I agree with you, Oblivion deserved a 10 more than Soul Calibur did.

well, thats the past, the reviewers are different. Stop being worried. GTA got what it deserved imo... and if you dont think so, than its not the right game for you.

Probably. I guess the developers of those games sent GameSpot a big check and ended up with a 10.

Way to twist my words. I never said anything about GTA IV I just said that people complain about this site all the time but they keep coming back to use it and I don't understand why.

Are you joking? Oblivion was nothing compared to Morrowind.

I don't understand where your going with this. It's apparent that we are talking about two different things or something.

Yes, all those 10 scores from the various different websites are all because they bribed them. It can't be because the reviewers actually enjoyed the game. Not possible.

You asked why I come back to Gamespot, it's because of the community, not the advertisements, not the ratings, not the Hub-bub.
