| NYANKS said: I hated when reviewers did somethign like this to Socom. A lot of places gave it bad reviews because the online multiplayer was having problems right at launch. They didn't review the game, they just reviewed the launch. The game was fine a few days after, but the review damage was done. Kinda sucks. |
Confrontation and SOCOM 4 were both garbage long after release, whether it was bugs or just terrible gameplay. Whichever one you're referring to, they both got the shitty scores they deserved. I think if you release a buggy, non-working game, you should be penalized for it. If it's not ready, don't release it.
To the OP, I don't have a problem with the way the reviews were done. Killzone is a FPS with a heavy emphasis on story and SP. It's not like CoD or BF where almost every preview and event revolves around MP. Plus since KZ doesn't have as strong of a MP component as those franchises, it makes the SP that much more important. As for KI, I think the same logic as SOCOM applies. How the game launches is all they can review. More content coming later is nice, but I don't have an issue with them reviewing what is there right now. You get what, 8 or 9 fighters for $40? Could be wrong there.
