IGN needs to fix their shit rating system. I know they don't add up and equal out the score in the end but there is no possible way in hell that:

a 10, 9, 9.5, 10, and 10 = 10


I agree.  I didn't find the review all that great either. They are very inconsistent when they review games: their editors must not care about a well crafted review system.

It's not about the score of the game. I just find their review system horrible.

i wasn't complaining about the score of the game. I was complaining about the crappy nitpicky review. If you're going to be like that you'd better do it for all games. Frame rate issues in cut scenes? How about the games that have them during gameplay? Theres one that has severe issues with it and its not mentioned at all. The stupid thing about 9 maps not being enough and that they're based of off old maps is just stupid. The only old map in the bunch is the ivory tower remake.

That said, I just watched the Gametrailers review and that one is pure crap. Do they even know what halo multiplayer is about?

This is so true. How the fuck did it get a perfect 10 when not everything about it is perfect? IGN is messed up.

The game still looks sick though.

I'm sensing that IGN will give GOTY to SM2


No they won't lol

I'm thinking Mass Effect 2.

History repeats itself. Wasn't Mass Effect 1  a contender for GOTY along with Super Mario Galaxy? Yeah SMG prevailed. 

But the jump from Mass Effect to Mass Effect 2 is less than the one from SMG to SMG2. Also, Mass Effect 2 got a lot of DLC since it's release which keeps it alive. The recent Mass Effect 2 DLC seems to be muy no bueno from what I heard.

Fixed :P

Wow, I love http://xbox.gamezone.com/reviews/item/halo_reach_review/ that review. He only says great stuff about it but gives it an 8.5. REALLY? Also, itstupid that GiantBomb gave reach a 4, but MW2 a perfect. It said the MP was flawless, but the short campaign ruined it.... MW2s campaign was like 3 hours....



Good scores!!  I can't wait to buy Halo: Reach!!
