9.0 from IGN? That's...surprising.

I wonder if that's just a fluke. Based on the totally awesome demo, I thought this would easily outscore Resistance 2 and fight Gears 2 to the death for shooter of the year.

Either way, it will kick serious ass.  :D

It's pretty obvious the gigantic, hyped-up titles get inflated scores from review sites. 

Nothing against those games really, but does every big game that comes out have to be above 9, or else it's considered bad?

If GeoW2 got a 9, Xbox fans would be going crazy...and I'm sure review sites keep that in mind, as well as advertising money that indirectly pays for good reviews basically.
