It still has a chance to go up to 93 again. Although I kind of doubt it will.

So it fell down by one point. Big deal.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

It is a big deal since it means I won't get full credit in the meta prediction thread

And I need the points since i'm doing bad lol.

no they don't have an agenda, they're just fucking retarded

"Gran Turismo 5 simply isn't fun. It is too bogged down by precision and realism for the average gamer to embrace"

and I pity anyone who calls themselves fans of racing sims that trust anything these morons have to say

Finally a totally unbiased person to speak the truth

because what I posted was totally made up.....

 here's another

"Gran Turismo 5 is a 10/10 simulator wrapped up in a 5/10 game" let's play a game of which moron reviewer said that dumb shit

yeah how dare PD make JUST a racing sim......

 

 

edit: it might seem like bias, but seriously if Forza4 matched GT5 feature for feature and did it better than GT5.....I say it's better than GT5, but currently it has half the content and people are calling it better based on reviews from the same people that knocked GT5 for being JUST a racing sim, whatever floats your boat , but whatever right as long as you enjoy it, but I will admit this it is more visually consistent (though falls short of GT at it's best), and damn sure sounds a fuck load better, which puzzles me as to why no one has mentioned this yet, the sound in Forza 4 beats GT5 ass

Heres the thing buddy......your playing a video game at the end of the day. Its a sim....but its also a video game. GT5 is a amazing sim.....but a bad video game. Forza 4 is a great sim AND a fantastic video game......hence a better overall package......hence the 90+ grade compared to a 84.

More in depth campaign, Better music, more detailed tracks, seamless menus, more online modes, more user generated options, more community oriented, Autovista, 500 premium cars as opposed to 200 in GT5, better car sounds.

Its more then just a sim....its a amazing video game. How dare PD just make a sim? How dare they get so lazy as to stop there. 


Cool story bro. Point still stands. GT5 is a great sim but suffers as a video game.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

Putting aside the other titles (as quantity clearly is in favour of Sony), the biggest meta scored have so far been:
MS =
Forza 3 - 92
Gears 3 - 91
Sony =
LBP - 92
Uncharted 3 - ?

If Uncharted 3 is to land 91 or higher, review/critical acclaim wise, Sony is very likely to edge out MS in terms of .. well what I said, awards and reviews (which I do actually feel is quality). Then again some would already count SOTC&ICO Collection as it is already 91 but I don't do that, that aaainnt meeee! XD

Great reviews from Forza as expected!

Great sugarcoating, but mostly flamebait.

As Ars Technica's resident petrol head, it's no secret that I've been eagerly anticipating getting my hands on Forza Motorsport 4, the latest installment of Microsoft's marquee racing game for the Xbox 360. Ever since Sony finally shipped Gran Turismo 5, console racing fans have been waiting to see how Turn 10, Forza's developers, would respond. From where I'm sitting, it's clear that there really is a new king in town http://arstechnica.com/gaming/reviews/2011/10/forza-motorsport-4-review-the-king-is-dead-long-live-the-king.ars/1
