I really don't get it.. I was on here reading how people was talkin about gametrailer giving uncharted 2 a 9.3 and halo 3 got a 9.8... they say the uncharted was a rehash of gear of war and tomb rider...(i really dont get that at all when one is slow paced and the other is fast paced). And that graphic don't make a game (as that is true).. this is what i'm asking if halo reach is the same game but new story as all the other halos but just with better graphic should it get a 9.8 or a 9.3 like uncharted 2 has gotten... before you say have i played uncharted 2 yes i have i work at gamestop so i do have it.. i do love gears of war 1 and 2 but this game is really good..(the story is where it really shine).. and stands on its own in every way you can think of.. i'm getting from my point if halo has the a new story but the same gameplay should it get a 9.8... p.s halo odst is trash.. and we all know it should had been dlc... LET THE FIGHT START lol

We don't know anything about Reach except the story

A little early to jump to conclusions

Why are people delving into this incident so deeply, GS scores are the only ones that matter in SW so why do people care so much about GT?

I don't understand either

It is blown way out of proportion, people must've not been here when Uncharted got 8.0

What I learned today

1. 9.3 is a horrific score and should not be touched with a 1000 foot pole.

Well, um... Uncharted 2 is great, but a 9.3 nails it pretty much IMO. And you know about Halo Reach? Can I borrow your time machine please?

this is insane, i have never seen so much whining over a good score for a game, 9.3 is a good score, if a ps3 exclusive gets a low score, the cows whine about it, if a ps3 exclusive gets a high score, the cows whine about it, if any 360 exclusive gets more than an 8, yep you guessed it, cows whine about it, and to top it off, we now have people already asking wether halo reach deserves it's score before it's even been reviewed, please stop, give it a rest, put a sock in it, be happy it scored 9.5 here at GS, the only score that counts on these boards.

This 9.3-9.5 discussion just really shows off the maturity of the cows...

before you say have i played uncharted 2 yes i have i work at gamestop so i do have it.. bloombergmoney
Couple Points" 1. From now on 9.3 is the new 1 (its like Big Rigs honestly) 2. You managed to get work? really? 3. Very mature of you in general, and of the GT crowd 4. Does this actually matter to you? 5. Why do you care? 6. Its .5 of a mark (a difference in opinion between two people writing two different reviews)

Let me be honest, all this thread is doing is explaining why cows are hatewd so much in SW. This is truly a shameful display of complaining. As for Halo Reach, let's wait until we see some footage, and maybe read a preview or 2 before we judge it.

Why do cows cry over 9.3... like seriously... why do you have to come here and cry about it? Just go enjoy your game. If 0.2 on a review scale is keeping you from having fun you need to find a new hobby.

To be honest I think gametrailers are horrible reviewers and don't know how to score for crap. I wouldn't take their word on anything.

There's already a 14 page long thread about this explaining why people are pissed that uncharted 2 got 9.3 on gametrailers. It has nothing to do with the score itself (9.3 is a great score), it has to do that they explained the docking of points by saying it was "unoriginal" yet they gave games like Halo 3 a 9.8 (and Halo 3 was definitely not original).

I'm fairly sure if Uncharted 2 came out in 2007 instead on Uncharted it would have gotten a 10/10.

I don't see the confusion.

A reviewer plays the game - game leaves impression on reviewer. Reviewer gives game a numerical score and justifies it with a well thought out review.

The Uncharted 2 review had a great score and the reviewer even suggested every PS3 owner buy the game. He obviously played the game and liked it, but maybe the game reminded him of GeoW or something. Doesn't really matter - it was a minor setback. At most the reviewer knocked off .2 points from the game, hardly anything to scream about.

Halo 3 came out 2 years ago and included some great features. The reviewer was impressed - and personally I don't know too many high quality games like Halo. CoD? Nothing like it. PDZ - nah. I think Halo has a unique identity for a shooter - maybe it's not original but does it have to be? Maybe the reviewer simply had fun with the game. Maybe that reviewer knocked off .2 points too.

Get it over it, it's called an opinion. Maybe the reviewers though Halo 3 and Gears were a better experiences to begin with- Gear's could have have scored a 9.7 and Halo 3 a 10 for all we know until the got docked a few points. But does it really matter considering all game still received stellar ratings? This 9.3 mess is the definition of making a mountain out of a molehill.

Or maybe I should listen to the fanboys and simply agree that every sequel to release this gen needs to have up to .5 points taken away because GT gave Uncharted 9.3.

But that's the thing. I'll bet you anything Gears 2 and Halo 3 were scored without having that idea of docking points for originality. It really just seems that gametrailers were annoyed with all these people complaining about the 9.3 score and came up with a retarded excuse for it (hence the originality thing).

I have no problems with the score. It's just gametrailers screwed themselves up even more by coming up with this originality thing. If they want to use that as an explanation they have to be consistent with it which they are not.
