Not a big fan of metacritic. Good example is Uncharted out of 65 reviews it averages 88. In 64 out of those 65 reviews the lowest score is 80. However there is one ridiculous review where it got 67.
Also I forgot to mention that metacritic also counts reviews that gave no score but based on the review they have "calculated the score" so yeah.

And regarding gamespot, history is repeating itself in their continued bias against the ps3.

I'm glad to see it getting good reviews. I've always been a fan of the series. I'd definitely download it, if I had a PS3. :)

I really hope that Yahtzee reviews it XD no doubt he would bash it but you know :p always like his reviews.

Here is the IGN review, 9/10

yeah thats a wow from me 2. PS3 purchase, box that bitch and ill see

wish I knew how

The game does look incredible. I dont really fit it any of the categories, I have only played Pulse, and thought that was awesome, so I really cant wait for this, though I must say I am extremely disappointed about the exclusion of elimation, as that was my second favourite mode (zones = 1), but this will still look and play insanely well

Out today, can't wait, especially for what you get for the price. If it is an upgrade of Pulse then I'm fine with that, I never played Pulse but 2 players split screen and net multiplayer and Sixaxis control is enough for a must buy for me.
