Well, it was kinda expected, plus their review isn't that bad, just that the linearity let them down big time.

Plus, they gave Dragon Age a 5 too, so FFXIII = DA:O is really awesome in my book :P

Though I didn't like DA all that much. I still say it deserves an 8.

I decided to ignore Edge as a rpg rating site after the 5 to Dragon Age which I really enjoyed. The Edge reviewers are not rpg fans and the low ratings for RPG games show that. 

They have a very unique and strange way to rate RPG's. They have given good scores to most FF's before and even in this gen, they have given some good scores to RPG's as well. 

I do question their rating choice in the cases of both DA:O and FFXIII, but in the content of the review, they were far more professional with the FFXIII review than with the DA:O one, as that one felt to me, at least, that they were just giving it a raw comparison to the current trend of WRPG's, instead of focusing on the strenghts and unique points of DA:O.
