Starcraft - do you want me to write an email to IGN asking them to please explain to me why they didnt mark the 360 version down for some of the same reasons they marked some other games down for in the past?

Absolutely. Ask them why the difference between the versions wasn't large enough to justify even a .1 mark down for the 360. It would solve this whole argument one way or another.

I really think that the decision not to dock a point or two was to prevent a fanboy war like the one were having now. If they had declared the PS3 version numerically superior, the site would've lost its credibility in the eyes of people like you. Unless the DLC is a new island, I'm going with the PS3 version. If the missions they added really completed the game, I would consider it but as every reviewer has said so far, the PS3 version is graphically superior. I'll make a bet with someone that the PS3 gameranking and Meta-critic scores will be higher than the 360's.


I agree about the decision to not dock points. I mean, the PS3 version of R6: Vegas 2 is slightly worse than the XBox360 version. So it gets 0.2 points docked off. Ok, whatever, they have their right to do it. And in the end, no one cared because an 8.4 is not that much different than an 8.2. But if they gave the PS3 version of GTA4 a perfect 10, and the XBox360 version a 9.8, can you imagine the uproar this would cause in the gaming community?

But thats just it.  They DO dock points where one game is noticably better than the other.  But they didn't with GTAIV so.......
