Ryse looks great to me. I have a mind of my own.

Game review websites are good and all, but sometimes you have to trust your own gut feelings about a game. IMO, Ryse is obviously a great game, and the gameplay videos of it prove this.

The reviews for it on gaming websites seem polarizing as well. Some really like Ryse, while others think it's extremely mediocre (most likely due to bias against the XBOX ONE). Just remember, an opinion is nothing but that, an OPINION.

Worst damage control ever, reviews are opinions but you should worry when every "opinion" is saying the same, the game is a craptastic mess.

How is Ryse "OBVIOUSLY a great game"?

According to professional reviewers (unlike yourself) who have actually played the game (unlike yourself) It's not been a mediocre game... It's a bad game.

I'm more willing to accept the opinion of many professional game reviewers than the opinion of some guy who is now feeling bad and questioning his decision to purchase this product.

Many people who have played the game at gaming shows thought it was great!!

LOL @ "professional" game reviewers <-- they are just normal people with opinions that are no more valuable than anyone else's opinion. There are no special skills involved with being a game reviewer other than having fundamental understanding of how to operate a video game controller.

Many of those "professional" game reviewers, who gave Ryse a mediocre score, are no doubt bias against the XBOX ONE and are trying to purposely be extra harsh when judging XBOX ONE's launch titles (especially one as popular and anticipated as Ryse). Hardly unbiased and fair.

Wow...., so NOW you laugh at "professional" reviews because they bash a game you put on the pedestal? But you probably scorned Playstation fans for their mediocre "professional " reviews as well.

Doesn't that make you a hypocrite?

The more I watched the live streams, the more I liked it. I will probably skip it day 1 tomorrow, but I will get it by the end of the year probably. Maybe drop a hint to friends it'd make a good present.

While a 4 is a 4 regardless, I think it's worth taking into consideration that Ryse probably had 10x the budget that Knack did.

Just remember this everyone: The original "Risen" game has a Gamespot score of 7 and a Metacritic score of 77, yet it is one of the greatest PC RPGs ever made!!

So what does that tell you? DON'T TRUST GAME REVIEWS!! JUDGE GAMES FOR YOURSELF!!

I've played it. It's a clunky, button bashing QTE fest. It could be some mindless fun but it will never be a good, never mind great game.

And I'm enjoying Knack despite reviews. What does that really mean? Means I like Knack and you like Ryse. But, again, both are garbage in terms of reviews. Stop the denial with this "I have a mind of my own" crap. Grow up.

If you really had a mind of your own, you wouldn't be trying to justify it to everyone.

TC if you want to spend $60 on this game go right ahead. But you must be high if you think you are going to convince us this game is good.

Yes, any reviewer who thinks Ryse is mediocre is obviously biased. (Lem logic)

Keep it in the official thread. Especially when you feel like you need to make a thread that belongs in a blog.
