33/40 for God of War Collection?

They should give me some of the stuff they're smoking.

Why do they need to smoke anything to give it that score in 2010? Thats a pretty good score for a port of 2 PS2 games.

People don't realize that God of War 1 and 2 scored amazing mostly for presentation when they came out. Presentation which today is a little dated for those 2 games...

So Genesis re-releases are automatically 20/40? That's how they should be rated by your and severance's logic.

Retro reviews are to be done by the same standards as one would do them back in the day when the games originally came out.


There is a huge difference in reviewing between 30+ classic genesis game on one disc for 29.99 and 2 of the best action games from last gen.

The genesis collection games represent the pinacle of those types of games (for the most part) but god of war games are still current when it comes to the evolution of that genre.

If you give god of war 1/2 more than what they got from Famitsu, what do you give God of War 3 which is clearly better in every way? 10/10?
