Actually it's a fun exercise to do on this site :)

According to a hypothesis you would not need to know how the game plays like, but should consider other factors which people in the thread have listed (console on which the game is published, hype, 'originality' and others).

i think it'll be 7 or 8 because this is EDGE were talking about, the company who are trying to establish themselves as THE reviewers to impress the most, when infact there just idiots.

Except that in my view EDGE reviews the actual game, not the hype, platform of choice or other such factors. Those are just sad excuses from people that doesn't share the taste of EDGE reviewers. 

7/10

edgy 5/10 review for FFXIII, so I don't think they're gonna enjoy GoW III either.

They didn't enjoy a JRPG, so they won't like a hack and slash?

I agree on 7/10, but that means they did enjoy it.

6/10

7/10 which I think will be fair.

Edge clearly doesn't like RPG's since it gave DA:O 5/10 too.

I've allways considered 7/10 to be an average game, with nothing amazing. Reviewers give great scores too easily these days but atleast edge goes nuts with the reviewing.

I'm thinking 7-9. *shrugs*

I just think they have an idea of what a modern RPG should be like, both Fable 2 and Mass Effect 2 got 9's.
