what were his reasons to "only" give it a 9 then?

If he was completely blown away, then it merits a 10, no? A game that enthralls you that you feel like you're in the game yourself and enjoying it completely, deserves a 10 (imho).

No game this year was balanced enough to deserve a 10.

Fable 2 got a 9.5, but nevertheless Gears 2 will sell more.

This is OXM UK, they gave fable 2 an 8 and the first gears got a 9

Epic Fail. It means that for some reason it is just not as good as the first one or Fallout 3 which they gave a 10. I guess they couldn't meet their lofty expectations. If Resistance 2 gets better review scores MS and the 360 are over and out.



My most anticipated games:  Whatever Hideo Kojima is going to do next, Final Fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Gran Turismo 5, Alan Wake, Wii Sports Resort.  Cave Story Wiiware.

After reading this I can conclude that I am much smarter than you. I am willing to take a test to prove it...

So 9/10 is an  epic fail now?

         XD......keep reaching little pup.  Your entitled to your op, but even if R2 gets a better review score (average), Gears 2 will easily outsell it and probably any other game this year, so I wouldnt call MS and the 360 over and out based on a score of a [9] ...... ;)!
