Actually, Gamespot seem to be one of the stingier scorers.

But yeah, IGN are a tad, shall we say, "optimistic" with their reviews

Gamespy are pretty dependable.

IGN is reviewed by people who ENJOY the said genre.

 

so you don't get hypocrite reviews like G4. where they base on game from one genre.

exactlyyyy ;)

 


 Remember the whole Crisis Core getting 2/5 by G4?? with racial comments included? :P

I actually like Metal Gear a lot but a fucking 45 minute cut scene is ridiculous even if it's not 90 like most people suggested. Had they said 20 I would consider sitting thru one of those.

 How long is the longest cutscene in the other MGS games?

I thought they were always long;.

I don't know, it looks like SMG or GTA4 is a better game according to every other reviewer. We will see how well it does though, 4 scores of 80% so far, GTA4 has 2, SMG has none. (Gamerankings)

Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

That's fine.  But people on here seem to see IGN as some trustworthy final authority when it comes to game reviews, and I can't fathom why.  They're no better than Gamepro.

Softball reviewing isn't very credible imo.  IGN is fast food games "journalism"

 Edit:  Between this thread and the other one I guess you can tell I reeaally don't think highly of IGN :p
