Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Xbox One Reviews ETA 30 mins! Killer Instinct, Dead Rising 3, Crimson Dragon, Powerstar Golf and more!!!

Disappointing so far, especially Crimson Dragon. That's my most wanted X1 game.

Killer Instinct is a bummer too. Happy to see love for Dead Rising though.

Lococycle is as expected.

With Killer Instinct being free and still being criticized in terms of content how does everyone think Forza will do?

Will it too get hit with content criticism?

It will probably get a lower score because of the lower amount of tracks. I don't really think that 200, 500 or 2000 cars makes a real difference in how much fun a game is (most people play only the same maybe 10 cars the whole game). maybe they will still criticize it even if their own experience won't be different. but with fewer tracks, some reviewers will say that there is less value. No clue how they will think about the other missing stuff but that wasn't really something why they gave forza games so good scores so that it would be weird f they would give it a much lower score because of that now.

I think it will score lower as other forza games but how much lower depends on how the career is and how the gameplay is this time. and i hope reveiwers will test it without any assisists and not like  "i played with steering and brake assists and didn't even have to brake to get the corner"

of all the videos i saw from gamescom, eurogamer expo and so on, almost nobody played without these stupid assists. only team vvv and very few others played from time to time without them.



In line with what I expected.

Ryse is going to get butchered. I can feel it. Forza should do well though.

Looks to em as thought dead rising might finish 80 plus, KI 75 ish.

Not too shabby.

Chuck in a 80 plus for Forza and all is well, a mid 70's Ryse too and its a solid start

75 - 89 = Decent game

90+ = Amazing

Don't think anyone expected 90+ games (Maybe Forza)

So if the main titles can score in that first bracket it's job done IMO.

I would argue that

 

70-79 = "This is a decent little game. Its not groundbreaking but its good enough and gets the job done"

 

80-89 = "This is a DAMN good game"

90-99 = "Amazing"

100 = "Perfect/Masterpiece"

I preordered an XBOne just for Crimson Dragon and DR3, as well as the free copy of FIFA. We should probably better gauge our expectations of launch titles. Damn Mario 64 putting my expectations at launches too high.

3 new reviews for DR3.

I'm very interested in the Forza score.  Killzone got penalized for "failing to evolve," which makes me curious to see if the same harsh criteria will apply to other genres or games.

CoD seems to have gotten a pass, though, for some reason.



I'm glad DR3 turned out better than expected. Hopefully Forza carries on the trend of it's predecessors. I'm expected around 80 for that and Ryse is a wildcard. I may swap out Crimson Dragon for KI, and I may check out that Golf game. So, DR3, Forza 5, Ryse, KI, and maybe Powerstar Golf when I get my One! I wish NA got a free game too...

ONE wins where it counts so far.

Better games and a far better UI and integrated system.

I expect hardware reviews to follow software reviews and favour ONE.

ONE is simply a better and more coherent system with real next gen features.

Thanks.
