 People say a lot of stupid crap when they are excited.  Every time a big game comes out people say things of that nature.  I mean, really? Your just quoting random people on this forum, I mean, this happens with all big games, and the hype for this game didn't come even CLOSE to Halo 3 or even MGS4.  People were harping on the 60 man multiplayer, which is it's most unique point, so this makes sense.  OMG, someone made a dumb statement on the internet, how can this possibly be?!?!?   And as for people in that thread hyping Res 2 over Gears, WELCOME to Vgchartz.  If you don't know the fanboy breakdown yet, you will soon, and it doesn't favor the 360.  I always thought gears was gonna get better scores, so if it's even I'm happy, cause they are both good.

 

People say a lot of stupid crap all the time.

Something I've heard lately is reviewers gave R2 lower scores because they are pro 360.

I disagree with that.

I've been flamed to hell and back in this thread for that belief.

The games are obviously both good. I dunno which one is better, don't care. Reviews mean nothing outside of the fanboy realm. However, my argument has nothing to do with the validity of said reviews, but instead the damage control used to discredit them.

There are plenty of other ways to discredit reviewers, than by claiming that they hate the PS3.

Okay, so your point is that reviewers are not pro 360, correct?  I agree with that, with the obvious exception of sites or reviewers that have obvious bias, but these are not significant places.  Perhaps you should frame your argument differently, because based on responses you're not getting your point across.  I will say reviewers can be pro-hype, if you catch my drift.  But no, there is no "metal gear" conspiracy going on, lol.  I think your message was just lost in the fanboyism, and maybe your wording or aggressiveness.  Just my opinion though.
