When was the last time Edge gave a PS3 game a 10?


Little Big Planet I believe, which was something innovative and fresh. Edge like that.

Nah, it's because it was developed in England.  :P

I think there might be something to that - or at least a British bias. They gave GTAIV (Scottish developed) a 10. Fable II and Burnout Paradise got a 9.

There are plenty of Edge scores for British developed games below their meta (e.g. Batman AA 8, Need for Speed Shift 8, Alien vs Predator 5, Motorstorm 8, Pacific Rift 7) but given that their average score is 15-20 below the metascore most of those are actually better than you'd expect.

I'm English by the way!



God of War 3 = P.B. Winterbottom???!!



Do you know what its like to live on the far side of Uranus?

every publication has some questionable scores, however Edge is well known for being quite harsh, so 8/10 for GOW3 is not bad.

Alice in Wonderland > Yakuza 3, FFXIII, WKC?

EDGE is just being plain trolls now, honestly they have no credibility left at all.



Here's what's bad about the 8: Bayonetta was somehow a 10.

Yep because giving 10/10 to every hyped PS3/Xbox 360 or Wii exclusive gives instant street cred and credibility.

8/10 for GOW3?

Classic Edge.



8/10 for GoWIII is good, it means it's a very good game and well worth buying. (Gave GoW 8/10 and GoWII 7/10)

Of course 5/10 for FFXIII means it's just average. They gave FFX 6/10, X-2 7/10 and XII 9/10 and gave it game of the year in 2006 for comparison sake.



Hmm, pie.
