I can't wait to pick this game up. I have the limited Edition preordered.

There are some reviews I do not trust in any way. GameCritics for example is sooooo retarded. Alan Wake received 65/100 from GameCritics, Mass Effect 2 received 75/100, Gears of War 1 80/100, Halo 3 70/100 the worst score for all four games on Metacritic. On the other hand Sam & Max the Devils Playhouse received a 95/100...

Now you can argue if it is an accident that the lowest score for a lot of Xbox 360 exclusives comes from one single reviewer...

I don't trust them at all.

 

Another problem is that reviewers are having problems with different genres. A puzzle game will never ever get a AAA score, just because it is a puzzle-game. A puzzle game does not need to be a graphical masterpiece for an outstanding game. JRPGs will never be as critical acclaimed as the western RPGs. I think a game should get great scores when it is great in its own genre and not get an average score because of the genre and that is exactly what we see these days.

 



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...
