Anyway, i wouldn't say this is "next-gen" because it got 9+ ... gears of wars and zelda twilight princess got 9+ by most major publications months ago.

C'mon. It's not about score. It's about cinematic approach to gameplay. Did you even read review summary few posts above?

"Why not 10?

A bit too short - less than 10 hours

Enemies aren't differential enough - only few models

It would be nice to have more bosses

Lack of secrets

Some issues with collision detection"

The first and last ones are HUGE problems for me. And it should be for most people, specially the last one. When the collision detection doesn't works the game can become frustrating pretty easily.

I take 100 times out of 100 a game with a collision detection of 10.0 and graphics of 5.0 over a game with graphics of 10.0 and collisions of 5.0

Besides, this may not be a problem for a lot of people, but personally i wouldn't pay 50 or 60$ for any game that doesn't gives me at least 20+ hours of gameplay... doesn't matters if it is local or multiplayer but i have to get at least 20+ hours to justify my purchase.
