But I am just wondering, when was the last time you saw a review which would equate to under 50% and it was a serious game? I was looking online, and some magazines, and I think the last review of a game that gave a score under a 5 was CGW some time before they closed. They also used to give a lot of interesting scores, such as 3 stars for CoD and anything over a 4 was a must buy for me from them, and I can tell you, I did not buy many games.
So anyone else have any memories of when games got what they deserved? Where the sequels with same formulas did not go over an 8 except in very special cases and clones never got over a 7? |
Some 'serious' games. And their reviews below 50.
Sands of Destruction (DS) - 3
The Crystal Bearers (Wii) - 5
Dante's Inferno (PS3/360) - 1
Dark Void (PS3/360) - 7
White Knight Chronicles (PS3) - 3
These are all pretty recent games too. Not older than a few months.
