With the new scoring system they have in place it really doesn't matter what score they give it now.

It depends on who reviews the game, and Halo 3 is NOT going to be the best game ever.

I expect a 9.5 now. The game has so many features, 4 player co-op is a big one and with so many ways to entertain I find it impossible to get less than 100 hours of gaming with Xbox Live. Man I cant wait to get out of the map and find hidden secrets with my friends(only campaign and not online, I play fair).

The forge system is gunna make custom games soo much more valuable.

halo could get a 7.5 or even closer to a 6 and it would still hit millions in sales ...

Sadly, they only use intervals of 5 now whenever rating games. 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, etc...

Well if the Bioshock score is any indication I think a 9 is the highest possible score they'll give it.

Umm... why let one person's opinion affect? If you are going to get the game anyways, the review shouldn't dissapoint you. Just because a game has a ton of features, doesn't mean that it is fully fleshed out and won't have any issues.

Dude I think Halo 3 should get a 9.5 or even a 10 considering its feautures, but since its the third in the series good ole Jeff will give it an 8.5.

this is not going to be the best game ever...and what's the matter if they put 8.9? that will be bad? no!... a game that doesn't have a rate above 9.0 doesn't mean that is bad...

Gamespot puts a lot of score into innovation and a lot of hate into games that DONT have it. There's a good chance it wont get above 9 for that very reason. There's too much MS money riding on this for Bungie to take any chances with the franchise :(

Yea the new scoring system is sort of, well, different now. 9.5 really doesn't mean a whole lot I guess. It's like scoring a 9.0 in my eyes. But who knows. I think Halo 2 got by on a lot of hype, although 9+ was still the right score. It's pretty clear Halo 3 will be superior to the second so why not?

I don't think a change in numbers takes away from credibility dude. Take it easy! Do you ever read the reviews or just check out the numbers? They might score differently but the same people write the same reviews in the same fashion they always have. I haven't got a doubt the reviews will be anything but great. It's just the scoring now that feels a bit on the lighter side.

I totally agree with you. When I want a review I usually go to IGN, they have awesome video reviews and a fair scoring system. Lately gamespot is just nonsense

to me game sites are only good for info, videos, screens, etc... if we all listened to what reviewers say, we would not be playing games like Halo or Bioshock if they pissed and moaned about something

But when was the last time that happened, honestly? Can you remember the last great game that Gamespot scored poorly for no real good reason? They are typically spot on. I mean, Half-Life 2 is great, Madden 08 is decent, and Prey is a typical shooter with nothing special. Seriously, I implore anyone to find a review that was really really really off.

The last game I remember loving that Gamespot didn't was 1080 Avalanche. Yea I think they were probably right in retrospect too!

I can remember one they loved that should have been hated, Marc Ecko's Getting Up contents under pressure. An 8.7 from our good friend Jeff

it'll probably get a 9.0 because of the .5 increments they give to games now.... I'd say most sites will review it in the 9.2 to 9.3 range. Not as revolutionary as the first two (especially graphically) but very refined gameplay and multiplayer to end the series on a great note.... we'll see how it turns out.

I bctually don't depend what I buy on gamespot's reviews. I did first but after I bought Warioware Smooth Moves (9,1) on Wii I just stopped trusting it, I'm just gonna buy a game I think looks great and seems fun to me.

It shouldn't matter if the game gets a 9.5 or a 6.5, if you like the game thats all that matters.

Reviews are your way of making a more educated guess as to whether you'll like the game before you go out and buy it. How am I supposed to know that I'll like say... Bioshock? I've never played the whole game. But if someone else does and reviews it and they say it's great, that makes it a more solid buy in my book.

So are you saying you won't buy it because it didn't get a 9.0? If that is true then maybe you would be better off not buying anything since you are so unsure in your decision making.

I Dont think you have to worry about Halo 3 getting bad reviews worry about games like Stranglehold and assaisins creed

Bioshock in my opion is not that good well it is good but comparable to halo and very lucky to get a 9.0
