I like the fact that Halo 3 ODST > God of War 3. Because unlike Halo, God of War didn't evolve at all.

/sarcasm off

Anyway, I expected 8 (while hoping for 9) from them so I don't really care. It got -1 for not beeing on Xbox and -1 for not enough innovation. I can live with that even though EDGE are still laughable. (Dragon Age Origins - 5... ofc ofc) They have biased and inconsistent reviews.

Halo 3 is still today one if not the best console online experience, it deserves its' 10/10.

God of War 3 is a good sequel and rated as such.

If you don't like Edge reviews then don't read them.

God of War 3 is a good/great sequel according to Edge and they gave it an 8. If you don't like Edge reviews then don't read them.

Mario Galaxy, Modern Warfare, Grand Theft Auto, Gears of War, Halo, Mass Effect, Little Big Planet, Metroid Prime, Forza, etc. are all games pushing their respecive genres so they deserve the hype.

Lol wut? I was comparing Halo 3 ODST to GoW3, since ODST was a short campaign with map pack included. There wasn't anything new or innovative over H3, yet they gave it 9. Half of their scores doesn't make any sense, they are inconsistent and biased, that's a fact proven by their track record. I'm not saying they are biased towards certain console, but their opinions differ from issue to issue, contraindicatory and what not. They either dwelve so hard on innovation, that it looks like it's the only thing they care about, yet then comes out the game game with nothing new and they score it almost perfect with the reason "it's still fun even after 3 years"? You kiddin right?

And fyi GoW3 is not only pushing it's own genre, but it sets industry standart in setpieces, technology, polish and tight gameplay. So it should be right there with the games you've listed.
