IGN at least have the decency to make a detailed written review explaining their opinions. Their scores tend to be all over the place (Resistance 1 - 9/10, Resistance 2 - 9.5/10? Killzone 2 - 9.4/10, Killzone 3 -8.5/10?). This is why I read multiple reviews, but I always acknowledge pros and cons from all reviews.

yea i read everyones reviews (except that metacritic site or whatever there called) cause people make up fake name just to trash a game, like for halo reach theres names like halosuxz, gaylo, halohatre, or gt5 had some like, gt5suckz, and there was dozens more.... theres only a few games i buy day one and its because there games i know will kick ass.... like the last ones i did were gt5, halo reach, call of duty black ops.... which i buy games alot but i dont play video games as much anymore, i love talking about em

When I go to metacritic, I read reviews from websites I trust. I usually avoid user reviews, as people after over-eggagerate their scores to make the average go higher/lower. In what crazt persons eyes are Halo or GT 2/10 games?

I almost never buy games brand new, or day 1. I can name all the games I've bought day 1 probably for the last decade. I didn't even buy Mass Effect 2 day 1, I waited for the first sale. Only game I bought full price last year was Halo: Reach, and Golden Sun for DS. Prices drop so fast nowdays, and all games released in the holiday season go on sale in the next couple months.

However this year, Gears 3, Forza 4, and Mass Effect 3 I must get day 1. I might only get the basic edition, but still. I'd get The Last Guardian day 1, but I have a feeling that that game will only be a 10 hour single player game like God of War, so I can wait a year for it to drop in price. Uncharted 3, and Zelda, I'll wait for a deal on, I'll be too busy with the above mentioned titles.

Some of the deals I find are crazy. I paid $45 for Black Ops, and $20 for Metroid: Other M just by waiting until January. Also because I bought a lot of used games with my Wii, I got a $25 gift card in return and only paid $20 for Donkey Kong Country Returns.

yea i cut out buying games at full price.... its too costly.... i look for em on sale, i think the best buy ive ever found was motorstom pacific rift a couple years ago, was 60 bucks, i got it for 12 bucks at a retail store hahaha i was hells yeah..... i have bout move games brand new but there only 40 dollars which is good.... thats why i want my friend to get killzone 3 bundle cause my friends and me all rotate games and play each others games, saves alot of money
