| DonWii said: I would complain about the 9.5 score, since it was better than Prime 1, but I saw legitimate reasons to lower the score. Up to 10 second load time at times. A boring fetch quest at the end-takes away from the whole mojo. An easier than expected final showdown-really? |
To be fair though everything there can also be applied to Bioshock. The last boss is insanely easy (in fact he only hit me once), there is a fetch quest in the middle and another at the end. There are load times between any of the different levels, the levels are pretty long each but it can get annoying when you just want to get something right at the entrance to an area then nip back.
So seems to me that MP3 really deserved the same score. I suppose it's just due to different reviewers.
Btw Bioshock really is as good as the reviews say it is, it's incredible.
It seems to silly to mark a series down because it isn't brand new. Metroid Prime was the first 3d metroid, so of course it was a major change. I wonder if MP3 had been the first the reviews would have been either higher or likewise if bioshock was the third game (I suppose it kinda is) would the reviews be lower? Will Halo 3 have .2 knocked off because of the 3 in the title?
