It's a joke guys. I guess my efforts to humor the PS3 crowd backfired on me. But thanks, I've never been called a PS3 fanboy before. n_n |
My apologies, then.
Edit: To the guy above me. 6.5 isn't 'that bad.' It's mediocre.

Um, actually 6.5 using most reviewers scales (including Gamespot) is pretty bad. It doesn't necessarily indicate a bad game, but it is definitely a bad review score to get.

Uhm, actually bobobologna, 6.5 is "Fair" according to Gamespot. 7 is "Good." I'd love to hear you explain how a game jumps from "Good" to "Pretty Bad" within 1/2 of a point, but you can't.
According to Gamepots scale:
6- Fair
5- Mediocre
4- Poor
3- Bad
Wow... look at "Bad" all the way down there near the 3.
Pwn'd...

You don't seriously think that they stay true to that scale, do you?
For example, The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor got a 3.5. The blurb says that it's slightly less painful than getting your brain removed through your nose. Yet, it's not bad, just between bad and poor according to your blind observance of what they dictate their scale means?
EDIT: I guess I should add Pwn'd...

You shouldn't.
I observed pretty well the first time. It's bad. The score says so.

And I do think they use the scale as a guide. Would they give it a number of 6.5 when their final remark ("Bad") is three points away? No. They mean "Fair." The game is OK.
