after gta 4 i really don't trust reviews of ps360 games at all.

Yeah because the scores are better than Nintendo games?


 Or maybe because they gave GTA4 10/10 more for the hype then merit? 

It's like, they blasted AC for lack of polish and graphical hiccups, but only say it's a minor thing in this game even though it has the same thing? 

Personally, I don't think MGS4 deserves a 10/10, knowing full well that I haven't even played the game. My only reason is that 10/10 designates perfection, it's like what happened in the official Nintendo mag for my country they gave 100% to mario 64 and then when perfect dark was released they gave it 110%. I wouldn't mind a site like IGN giving a 10/10 or even gametrailers because they are so very rare, but when sites like gamespy and xplay doll it out every week, kind of loses it's meaning. But, I do believe there are a few games out there that deserve a 10/10, but it would have to be such a ground breaking game that it's flaws are nothing in comparison (OoT certainly achieves that and Mario 64 is pretty damn close to it).

I think it'll hit about 94% average on gamerankings when all the reviews are done.


 AC got 8/10 from the mag due to repetitive missions.

They only give integers, so 10/10 does not mean perfection, it means >9.5/10
