Forums - Gaming - Good previews....Followed by SHIT reviews?

@Dark Prince
Did you like the game?

It's all about the money. Maybe they're paid to write glowing previews for a game the dev knows won't be too great?



If you think about it, we have no idea really how good games like Fable 2 and other big guns coming up are acually going to be...

I mean lets face it we all know if a game is a 7\8\9 outta 10 within about 10 mins of playing it usually. I can't say every time but generally you know the score pretty darn quick!

Anyways, I guess most of us are on the same wavelength, shame no honest people have contacts to get hold of some preview material and can be straight about things!

It has becoming a weird trend. I quit reading games magazines because of their narrow minded point of views.

They need a change.

You post something about Malstrom but talk of a narrow mind

This is happening more and more...

We get these amazing "hands on" crap from the likes of IGNGamespot etc...(especially IGN I must say).

 

Then.....

 

Duh-duh-duuuuhhhhhh....

 

A totally shit review for a game, I'm not a fanboy as a lot of clowns like to think. I will say now, this has happened a hell of a lot with recent 360 games. We get this indepth hands on. So they must have had some damn good time with the game...They tout all these great features and what not.

 

Then 2 months later they give the game a 67, which, in the world of computer games is classed as "fairly crap".

 

Its bloody annoying, and just makes me think the people running these sites are a bunch of pricks.

 

What do you guys think, and have you noticed this. I know its been like this for years now, but in recent times its as if they are talking about different games. They sometimes say there are a couple of problems that they "hope will get ironed out with the final build"....But they never do get ironed out - EVER...

 

The shits are just trying to play it nice to get more ad money if you ask me!

Sorry, but I couldn't read any more after this.  At least be honest and people might actually respect your opinion.



Happened with me in the assassin´s creed case. The previews said it was awesome. They forgot to say that it was awesome only for the first hours, cause instead of you getting better missions, it´s all a repetition of the same things. When I was in the second mission I began to find it weird, that nothing actually changed, than I read the players reviews that cofirmed what I was suspecting: It was the same mini games all over. Sad way to ruin what could be a heck of a game.

@ecurbj

No. xD



 

I agree but it might also be that the game can be so much and they hype the game but it fails to deliver on everything so those people most excited become the most critial of that said game.
