GiggityNinja on 12 September 2008

Well... I'm getting the game. I've put MANY hours into the first one, so...



Sony will prevail. My 60 gig says so.

PlayStation 3 Games:

- Rock Band
- Rock Band 2
- Soulcalibur IV
- LittleBigPlanet
- Guitar Hero: World Tour

I dunno where to stand on this issue, but I feel it is a certainty that reviewers feel the need to score Harmonix games higher, simply because they are the original developer.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

Have you ever played Rock Band? It's a great game, not sure why you are so surprised about this score.

A demo. But ive been reading up and theres barely anything that different. The new things GH:WT is doing are better.

@trestres
Yea

@Onyxmeth's
Too high. Shouldve gotten in the 8's Hilary give GTA a 10 IU a 7 and RB2 9 and Asassins creed a 7. That just doest add up imo.

 

 

So are you saying those were all rated high, or are you saying that this Hilary seems to prefer games with large single player and multiplayer modes as opposed to strictly single player?

 



Tag: Became a freaking mod and a complete douche, coincidentally, at the same time.

I had no idea that Hilary was a guy's name... Oh wait... It Isn't is it?

More of the same is what I basically got from the review... which is what GH4 will probably get ponts taken off for. From what he said, RB2 sounds more like an expansion than a new game...

BTW, this guy must suck at GH/RB, cuz none of the expert stuff looked even hard even tough he said it was much harder and would "test you" ;P

The Guitar controller still looks bad to me...

Exactly! Garnet on 1UP made a great point about that in a Podcast a while ago.

GH:WT instruments look better and Im positive that it will be the better of the two. Of course Metacritic will say otherwise.

Wait, a sequel already? The original has been out here in Europe for like a week. o_O

So you're just going off of a gut feeling?



Love the product, not the company. They love your money, not you.

Sounds like a good game to me. Sounds like something I'd like.

I thought it was going to get a 8.

Obviously, hes only played a demo of Rock Band, probably feels hes too 1337 for it, so he sticks with GH and praises it. Tell you what OP, maybe Hillary gave it that score because it deserves it. Ever think of that?

 



I own all three current consoles and a great gaming rig, now thats out of the way.

"Why post something like this when all it will get is PS3 owners blinded to reality replying? BOTH THE PS3 AND BLUE-RAY WILL NOT LAST 3 YEARS! TECHNOLOGY CHANGED TOO FAST!"

"is it Wii FIt that has sold as many as PS3's sold? Thats a LOL Look at the total sales of software is it just me that sees Nintendo titles hitting 10m+ and you say they arent making a difference? Another LOL!"

"Hell, with all the negative hype Sony spin, people just aren't interested cost is too high and to get the true HD experience (1080p, 7.1 surround) you will need a $1000+ system. THAT IS GOING TO DO IT IN A RECESSION! PS4 will not happen"
