Sony - IGN Infamous 2 Review - View Post

Low score for graphics considering it is an open world game and looks better than pretty much every open world game out there (looking at you GTA4), actually has a good storyline which other open world games tend to fail at, and he goes on to praise it greatly yet gives no real details to why points are deducted. it's as if IGN bosses just say "it's not COD and it's not a 360 exclusive so be sure to mark it down a bit". The review system is seriously broken. I might start reviewing games myself soon.


These days IGN has become a lot like Famitsu. The ones that actually go to the site don't even really read the review, they just look at the scores. Sadly the reviews are starting to adapt to what those people want. Gameplay sucks, Story's great, graphix are ok, so we give it this score. No real info is given on why a certain something is great or unimpressive. Then all the discussion is about comparison of the score with other games.

It's sad, really.
