Forums - Gaming Discussion - IGN AU gives Prototype an 8.5....IGN US What the hell?

As most of you probably know, IGN US gave Protoype a 7.5. This has already sparked quite some drama. But AU gives it an 8.5. Should we be quick to dismiss US? I think we should. In the US review, the guy is only complaining like an old man with diminishing testosterone levels (get off my lawn Alex Mercer) What to do you guys think? I'm going to take the AU review as the true review, because the reviewer seemed to enjoy the experience, not just complain like a bitch.

8.0 Presentation
So many options in so many areas. Pity there’s no restart mission option on the pause menu.
8.5 Graphics
Decent art design throughout but the standout is definitely the memory flashbacks.
8.5 Sound
A rousing score paired with decent voice acting.
8.5 Gameplay
Controls can be unwieldy, but once you have them down, both movement and combat are a blast.
8.0 Lasting Appeal
It’s not all that long, but there are heaps of side missions, orbs to find and upgrades to purchase.
8.5
Great
OVERALL
(out of 10 / not an average)

Also, the AU one seems more in line with all the other reviews.



Right this pretty much confirms me getting Infamous.



Do we really need another Prototype thread? Just keep it in the other IGN Prototype thread.
