idk what yall are talking about i usually find that when i read some article informing me about something happening in the gaming world its usually well done. There sure have been alot of complainers on this site lately. i usually read gameinformer and ign reviews and i find that they are well written and formatted. I also look at vgchartz feed alot and most of the time im cool with what their doing i just think alot of people want to complain because the world aint perfect lol. alot of these writers graduate college for jourlnalism and such and it shows to me but eh alot of you would complain about oxygen if it didnt keep you alive.


IGN's reviews and articles are always filled with typos and seem to a bias against PS3. There's also the extreme inconsistencies that the OP brought up (KZ3 losing points for lack of story whereas MW2 they said it doesn't matter because nobody buys it for the story) and their entire rating system in general. Their reviews will praise a game and it'll end up with an 8 (when the review is just glowing) or vice versa, or the final score being higher than all the different parts (presentation, graphics, etc). It's just a really unprofessional site in general.

That is the sort of stuff that gets on my nerve, which is why I generally don't read much for reviews.  They seem to have good sub-categories for what to review, and then it seems like with some games, just pull shit out of their asses for the overall score.  The story for Killzone 3 should matter JUST as much as the story for Modern Warfare 2.  I don't care whether people only buy it for online or only buy it for storyline.  An fps should be rated the exact same as other fps'.



Money can't buy happiness. Just video games, which make me happy.
