GT5 got a 8.5 T_T

The problem isn't 8.5 score... that's fine if the comments were in line with the score... but the reviewer said many times about "best sim game ever", "best driving phisics evers", "best racing graphics", and, in the end, gave a 8.5.

Makes no sense for me.


High expectations lowered the score I think. Also they did say cars that aren't "premium" are much lower quality (comparatively), the damage modelling is sub-par, winning races is based on having the best car and not on skill, etc.

So I think that sounds like 8.5 is a fair score. And hell I consider 8.5 to be a great score! Yeah I was hoping it would get a 9 but still 85% is great. If I got 85% on any test I'd be ecstatic.

so just because GT5 got an 8.5 they are biased???

wow stop with this **** ...has it occured to you that its just an opinion, just like myself who would give it a 7.5

its a racing sim, perhaps you might like it, but you have to realize that it doesnt appeal as much to other people


read the fucking article.

I'm done with IGN from now on it's only gamespot for me.  I don't know how they scored GT5 8.5 without even testing the online.  I so hope gamespot gives GT5 a 9.5 so the internet can sh** on IGN's face.

Because they are usually so far off base in regards to certain things I scratch my head and think to myself, "Someone has to have paid them to say that"

Anyways, yes I trust IGN more than I trust the OP.

Because over the last 10 years they have provided good review services to me.

Regardless of the reviewer, I tend to take them all with a grain of salt! If one doesn't like how IGN reviews games, then make a note to never take their reviews seriously ever again. :)


I like to get a combination of reviews, friends opinions, etc.



Everyone needs to play Lost Odyssey! Any opposition to this and I will have to just say, "If it's a fight you want, you got it!"
