I see so basicly heavenly sword (an 8 average game) has a better story than Halo 3. But was shot down because it didnt have multiplayer. Well that sucks.

Since when is 8 an average game? 8, according to GameRankings, is a "B" game. That's definitely not average.

 

What are you talking about? The average review is 8.1 http://www.gamerankings.com/htmlpages2/928391.asp

Ah, misunderstood you. I thought you were saying that an 8 score is average, not that HS is pulling an average of an 8.

And there's nothing wrong with a game getting a boosted score for additional features like co-op and MP. It's like a car reviewer not being able to give a higher review to a car that costs the same yet comes with leather, sunroof, power everything, etc. over a stripped down basic model. There's more added value in the purchase and for $60, there aren't many games that will offer players more over the long run than Halo 3.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to the game and getting my review in on it.
