Orange Box on PS3 get 9.0 on GS.

http://www.gamespot.com/ps3/action/halflife2episode2/review.html?sid=618395

Look like it still got AAA even with the frame drops.

gamespot is teh bias cause 9.0 is not 9.5 :cry:

just wait....

Cool.

Great game for the PS3, I expected worse after the previews.

I am not shocked. Gamespot only cares about framerate if it is a 360 game.

No way I would pay a cent for this port, it uses one single core and none of the other processers, it's not a ps3 game at all. just a really bad port.bigLLL

AAA 9.0 is a bad port :|

Who cares what it uses? It's still a very good game that's held back by a few frame rate drops.

Haha, TCHBO. The game is so inferior to the other versions it barely even schlepped by an AAA. :lol:

Aah this is just delicious victory.

so what of all the EA-bashing threads now? And will Cows buy this AAA game?Dreams-Visions

You kidding right? Cows don't even buy exclusive! Let alone one of the best games/packages ever.

so what of all the EA-bashing threads now? And will Cows buy this AAA game?Dreams-Visions

Well, i ordered it. It's maybe a bad port but half life 2 is one of the greatest games. A couple of framerate drops and longer loading-times won't stop me from enjoying it.

Edit:

Btw, I also own it on pc.

So will Cows refuse to buy it simply because it's not quite as good as the other 2 versions? It's still AAA!Dreams-Visions

Lets just say its a good thing NPD still shows game sales every month.

well thats still a good score, I think Ill pick this up, it still sounds like a positive review.Star67

If you are a shooter fan, you owe it to youself to play Orange Box. HL2 is one of the best FPS ever, Portal is amazing, and TF2 is a great experience until the monotony and repetion set in.

yeah, all my friends with gaming PC's tell me to pick this up for ps3, I think I will, after hearing them talking about how awesome it is makes it very tempting. Oh and I love the Civil Protection Machinama series.

cows conspiracy theories are working against them :lol:

After hearing all about how this port was supposed to be so bad I was expecting 7.5 or 8's. I'm shocked actually. Maybe it wasn't a bad of port as I thought. And here all the cows are saying EA is crap.Blackbond

Now that's more along the lines of the reaction I was expecting.

I'm surprised. I just read the IGN review, and the load times are supposed to be terrible.mis3ry

Or...maybe Microsoft didn't pay GameSpot enough to drop the PS3 version's score lower.

[QUOTE="mis3ry"]I'm surprised. I just read the IGN review, and the load times are supposed to be terrible.Nike_Air

Reviewers at other sites clearly feel it's more than just small loading issues. I mean we're talking large scoring differences everywhere else.

[QUOTE="mis3ry"]I'm surprised. I just read the IGN review, and the load times are supposed to be terrible.Nike_Air

If it's as bad as Half Life for the PC then it happens every 15 minutes.

Another AAA title on the PS3...
