Forums - Microsoft - Horrible Mass Effect Review

agabara on 31 December 2007

Wow, this isn't the site's first time giving a game a much lower score than it deserves.

Saints Row a 2.2/10?

Fight Night Round 3 a 3.5/10?

Final Fantasy VIII a 4.9/10?

This site should not count towards the Game Rankings average.

No no it shouldnt its doing it for attention

@sqr sorry i got hyped up and read it wrong



                 With regard to Call of Duty 4 having an ultra short single player campaign, I guess it may well have been due to the size limitations of DVD on the XBox 360, one of various limitations multi-platform game designers will have to take into consideration-Mike B

Game trailers-Halo 3 only dissapointed the people who wanted to be dissapointed.

Bet with Harvey Birdman that Lost Odyssey will sell more then Blue dragon did.

Hello,

Ouch to that review, I couldn't help but join and post in here. This review was horrible, Mass Effect deserves better, clearly the reviewer didn't know shit.

It doesn't matter, as long as Xbox 360 users enjoyed the game.

you know what, ive read the site reviews and those reviews should be removed immediatly.

Look at any reviews they gave fusion frenzy 2 (which i believe was game informers WORST game of 2007) the same score as halo 3 and pacman championship edition a 9 WTF

they gave skate a 9....... and viva pinata a 6.2
Thats for 360 games.


ps3 they gave ratchet a 9.6??????? FF 12 a 7.2 (im ok with that)

gamecube- Mario kart 8.5.......

LOL SSBM a 6.5 LOL

Non Sequitor much? He makes a bunch of valid points, but the score doesn't seem to reflect them.

I know he has some legit complaints about the game and I'm down with that, the loading times annoy me too, but Bioware put so much effort into creating the history, races and technology of the Mass Effect world. This game is definitely not a 5.4, that's a score you give for a game like Bullet Witch.

wow 5.4!?!? even i know its better than that and I haven't played it.

Yeah, their review of Super Smash Bros. Melee is funny. The reviewer gave it a bad score pretty much because he was bad at the game. If you've played the game long enough (it doesn't even need to be that long), you can tell he doesn't know what he's talking about. There's an example in which the review and the score are bad.

Netjak definitely shouldn't be counted towards the Game Rankings average.

I thought the review was well done, it addressed alot of issues that sites like IGN didn't not even bother to check.

I wouldn't give ME a 5, but I wouldn't give it more than an 8 either.

Sad.

But it doesn't matter. ME is the RPG GOTY for many people, and GOTY for myself. All I care about is that I feel it's quality is awesome.

 Go play The Witcher then come back and say if ME is still your GOTY.
