[QUOTE="istreakforfood"]what happened to the cows saying we dont follow gamespot anymore we should go by gamerankings :cry: ?leviathan91

Lemmings used it for Mass Effect, why can't everybody else?

Technically, cows used it first but ever since Mass Defect flopped, lems have done the same. Fanboys these days.:roll: (not referring to the persons I just quoted)

Only since what happened to Jeff. After that there is no way you can ask me to take reviews here seriously.

havent really seen it. mostly saw threads how some suggested to use gamerankings after the gertsmann ordeal or cows mostly using it cause scored higher for uncharted and ratchet.

I saw it and it made me laugh, mostly the night of the flop and the hardcore lemms who bashed the cows for using GR was doing it.

IGN OB PS3 review: 8.4

IGN OB 360 reivew: 9.5

.................................................................

Gamespy PS3 OB review: 3.5 / 5 (70%)

Gamespy 360 OB review: 5 / 5 (100%)

.................................................................

GS OB PS3 review: 9.0

GS OB 360 review: 9.5

.................................................................

I have a feeling this topic won't end with this thread. Who's got the popcorn?

KingOfKonging

I think it's funny. With ME it was the exact opposite. Everywhere they didn't bring down the score because of the technical shortcomings, but GS apperently found it rather significant. Now with OB on the PS3 its the other way around.

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

Fantasy land much? Just because one of your games got degraded to a 8.5 due to framerate doesn't mean anything.

They gave the PS3 version of Madden the same score as the 360 version even though it had half the frame rate. They gave that Medal of Honor game the same score on PS3 as 360 even though they stated the frame rate comes to a halt at times. So maybe you should speak when you know something instead of living in the cow pasture drinking Kitagari Kool Aid.

I am still going to pick this up, regardless of the framerate issues. It's still a great deal for $60.

It has been done before the Jeff incident a couple of times.Andis being used right now from both sides still. Besides, the R&CF score wasreally low and severly underrated. I mean compared to the other reviews, itshouldof at least gotten ahigh AA to low AAA but instead it had "too much variety" WTF!?

take it easy! If you even read the Madden review, they said the frame rate doesn't effect the overall experience.

I expect it to stay somewhere in that area. Funny how the place the underrates most games just so happens to give AAA status to an EA(deep pockets) game that plays likea slideshow.

woot better then flop effect :D

ProtossRushX


Actually putz, since you cows love GameRankings, here's some..interesting data for you:

Orange Box PS3: 81.3%
Mass Effect 360: 91.9%

But wait, lemme guess now Gamerankings doesn't count, right? And 360 owners not only get a solid AAE in Mass Effect, they get a much better version of Orange Box. Ouch, kid.

Oh, and one more tidbit for ya: Orange Box 360: 96.2%

i don't care what gs gives OB for the ps3, it still is a bad port and plus i'll be playing UT3 for the ps3 so EA, thank you very much for another sorry port but since Epic knows how to port a game correctly, i'll be playing their game over yours but thanks for attempting

I sure hope that doesn't discourage PS3 owners, this collection of games is amazing.

Oh and just so you people know, another patch is coming out before Christmas, that should further alleviate the lag and losing connection problems. And free DLC coming early next year! :D

[QUOTE="bigLLL"]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.Bansheesdie

AAA 9.0 is a bad port :|

it is a bad port. there's another thread out there in SW that contains a link to a side by side comparison of the game agains the 360. the PS3 shows some framerate problems throughout I think, but I definitely noticed it during the boat portion of the game. its pretty terrible that theres framerate issues for a game that came out during the last generation.
