This proves the gaming industry loves recycled crap

gaming industry and many gamers especially casual gamers ^^^

Hardcore gamers do not have the clout as casual gamers. The difference between a few million copies sold and tens of millions of copies sold.

Same thing for movies as well, if only the fans show up a film usually does not do well. For it to do well, it needs to get a mainstream audience.

COD has really changed things, every game now needs multilayer and everything has to be epic increasing the cost of games. So I think you will see more and more games appeal to the mainstream to increase sales as budgets become even bigger.

Fucked up honestly. Basically the same game gets a 9/10 while Edge has hammered other games for staying the same in the past

So long as popular FPS have a solid campaign and show further polish in MP Edge seem go straight to 9 for the score.

I'll wait until I play it myself to judge whether I agree or not - a 9 might be perfectly fine.  But I've noticed that outside big FPS franchises Edge tend to be more critical of lack of invovation.  Guess the reviewers love the big FPS titles as much as the average joe buying them by the millions.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

I think you guys have a point.

If COD was an RPG game, it would be attacked by critics for being the same.

It appears that thrills are more important then new original things in the First Player Shooter Genre.

 

 

Also this sucks, I pre ordered MW3 and went to get it 11 am today and the Gamestop did not have it. They said they made a mistake and ordered half the copies that were needed. The next gamestop is to far away so I will just wait till Tomorrow.

interesting. BF3 got an 8, while MW3 gets a 9.

MW3 is a better game for me.

Anyway GREAT score... I think U3 is slightly better but 9 for both from Edge is EPIC.

Congrats both games .

I hope they do a special PC review for both, because if the PC version of BF3 doesn't get a better score than the next console port on the PC (MW3). I've heard it has dedicated servers though? So we'll see what the PC community thinks about it

Yeap... this time it has dedicated servers for PC .

Very good! CoD isn't a game for me, but that score is still very, very good...

...but it's Zelda for me ;)

Swedens biggest newspaper gave it a 3/5



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)
