84 & 81 are dam good scores for games. anything above 70% i consider certainly worth purchasing



never said it wasnt good but lots of games seem to be less than what they should be. Like GoW:A is 79 right? Maybe it should be around 85-90?


Why would the new GOW be 90?  Explain please.  And dont get fooled by the 79  which is basically a 80 and this is just 5 off from your 85-90.

beginning and final bosses are some of the series' best, a couple little nuances to make it smoother (autosave and level select, while not ground breaking, are new to the series so should be chalked up as an improvement).  Elemental powers are a nice addition without trying to force weapons other than the blades on you.  It's very challenging and has some new combat nuances that make it a little deeper.  The visuals I didn't think PS3 was capable of (once again lol) have been achieved so a little credit there.  Overall I'd give it a 9 cause that's what I think of GoW3 as and this one was on par and gave me a fun new romp so it didn't feel stale.

Okay makes sense.

TBH I also think every game should be rated on its own merit. I mean if you( the reviewers )played GOD 1+2+3 and the PSP parts and the new one  well....  GOOD FOR YOU! 

Same goes for Mario games.  But reviewers somewhat forget that NOT EVERYONE played the previous entries. So saying  its actually better than the predecessor but then giving it a lower rating because its too much of the same  makes NO SENSE and distorts the truth (and might confuse potential buyers)

P.S. I just watched a short video (a digital foundry video?)  and yup the game looks really gorgeous!
