I never said he didn't. Since i often agree with his scores but find his analysis poor. That doesn't make this review good though, Nor his tendencys untrue. And his dislike for cage is more recent anyways, he's interesting when it's not his reviews.

Yep looks like you were right, damn you!! xD  

I loved Heavy Rain too so i'm getting this game but next year.

I was worried this would happen. The demo at Eurogamer was pretty lacklustre and barebones. It didn't have very much to the gameplay at all, even less than Heavy Rain did. I held onto the hope that the story would make up for it (hence my absurdly overestimated metascore prediction) but it seems that it didn't.

Hate to say it, but this is sort of a good thing. The price should go down fast, and I'll get it.

I'm sure its great in some respects.

I love her..
seen all her movies :3

Wouldn't worry too much. "reviewers" today are not what they use to be.
Some of these remind me of W101 reviews. It got docked for being hard. It got docked for silly things really but it all came down to the reviewer not being good enough, rating it low, then needing to justify their low score in some way other than lack of skill

That makes you part of the problem.  I won't lie.  I'm part of the problem too :(. 

I'll defend how I wait for game prices to drop though by saying instead of buying a few $60 games a year I'm probably buying around 20 games a year for $20-40.  Maybe a couple at $60.

somewhere in the 70's would seem about right,unless it was absolute garbage,heavy rain had quite a high score really at 87

personally i like P & C's,will have to see about the QTE in beyond

It wasn't a knock on Ryse by any means. I just find it to be interesting enough where I would have enjoyed kicking back and playing it like an interactive movie.

I dig the Roman setting.

I didn't seriously take it as a knock
