*a little amber flies in from southern cali* Kameo recieved an 8.7... Seriously I played Kameo, a good platformer, but could it be that much better than R&C? My heart says no. I know it was a different reviewer, but its still the same GS, right? ... Right?

:lol: @ Link! I don't know about the MMO factor, I've always like the the quirky NPC's and the innocent interactions we share, I don't know if I'll like a fat frog cursing at me because he doesn't like my home decor...

[QUOTE="zayas_81"] I'd hate to be the conspiracy theory guy, but GS has always been known to be the most controversial when it comes to their reviews, it seems to me they stand to profit by being controversial... Can't say it hasn't worked, they've been doing it for years.Skylock00

If that was true, they would've rated Halo 3 a 7, and Orange Box a 5 just to draw attention.

I don't think they rate games as much just to get attention and traffic out of it, especially since most of the 'traffic' is at the expense of us. :P

They do have to maintain some sort of crdibility ;)

Does anybody realize that all this controversy actually helps GS? The forums have been on fire since the review came out, and in the end that's what GS is going to show potential advertisers "Look how many gamers have posted in our forums this month" I'd hate to be the conspiracy theory guy, but GS has always been known to be the most controversial when it comes to their reviews, it seems to me they stand to profit by being controversial... Can't say it hasn't worked, they've been doing it for years.

[QUOTE="zayas_81"]
Why does my Wii60 sig anger so many people?rragnaar

:lol: It doesn't anger me... it just causes me to read your posts with a certain amount of Sony fanboy defensiveness.  I try to be an adult, but my inner child is an idiot fanboy.

Well I praise you my friend, most people try to hide their biases, but in the end they wind up looking irrational and untrustworthy, as in the end biases always show. Once I get my PS3 for $400 the sig will go, until then I'm just going to have to put up with certain people being annoyed at my posts without really reading their content, but I hope I run into more that are as honest as yourself :)

[QUOTE="zayas_81"][QUOTE="rragnaar"]Figured you'd be happy rragnaar

Why would I be happy? Its just going to be very interesting seeing all the reactions to this review. I know the feeling, I got outright banned for my outrage at the MP3 review


Between your Wii60 stuff everywhere, and the fact that I've never heard you say one kind word about the PS3 or its games, I kinda figured you were just sitting back and enjoying this.  I don't mean it as a personal attack, it just didn't surprise me.

Why does my Wii60 sig anger so many people? I use it because I was one of the very first people to coin the phrase, my blog has an entry on it from before the PS3 or the Wii were released, it doesn't mean I hate the PS3, like I've explained many times before, I've been using it in protest to Sony's decision of making the PS3 a $600 console. My earlier post was not me being happy that R & C got a low score, I'm actually holding a pitch fork and torch as I'm typing this, have been since the MP3 review. The GIF represents my anticipation of the fireworks that are about to go off...

[QUOTE="zayas_81"]I'm saving for a PS3, so in my eyes there's no reason to rush this game, why not delay the it and do it justice?Teufelhuhn


Delay one of the few exclusives PS3 actually has for this holiday season? Are you nuts? Besides, barrel explosions seems like an awfully odd thing to nitpick in a game that looks as good as this one.

I'm not nitpicking, barrel explosions where the one thing that jumped at me from the trailer, which someone earlier pointed out, apparently have been fixed. My post delved more in the artistic side of things, "You can't rush art" Right? I'm not trying to knock the game, but like I said in my post, when you contrast great beauty with silly things like vaporizing barrels, the end result can be uncanny, imagine if the Mona Lisa had certain parts painted with crayons...
