Funny when I read the review it felt like I was reading one for a 7.0 game at the most. and surprise when I did play it, thats exactly what it felt like. It felt like the reviewer was too much in love with his Wii to actually give it the REAL score. 9 for Crysis?? No game that glitched that much should ever get a 9. I still go there every now and then. THey do get reviews out fast as hell, and I actually like their coverage, but i no longer look up to their reviews like I used to |
oh geeze dont get me started on Crysis.
that has got to be one of the most overhyped game ever, mainly due to its marketing propaganda about its engine.
how a game gets a 9, declared the best FPS of the year, and best graphics with sooo many glitches, hiccups, slowdowns, bugs, brain-dead AI, frame rate drops, screen tearing, jaggies gallore, pop-in, etc.
i have never seen so many HUGE flaws be over looked before, it had to be blatant. and when actual reviews and analysis come out about all those faults (namely DF and Lens of Truth) the reivewer (who seemed like a fanboy with an agenda) dismissed it, acting like those things werent there
