New weapon for Chimera too!!

Is that a cannon coming out of that things mouth?

Truly bizzare...

 

Anywho, excellent score for Resistance 2. Certainly higher than I was expecting. This is going to be a day one purchase for me.

This review is up too early. Exclusive access = higher score.





Tease.

How on earth did it get a 9.5 when the reviewer found a few signifficant quibbles with the narrative?? Would the Godfather movie be so highly rated had an entire page of the industries most noted review site been spent lamenting the average storyline?

 

Difference between a movie and a game is that this game is also about the fun of playing and that the multiplayer also helps in the score.

I doubt you can compare a movie (which depends highly on its acting, which depends highly on the script) to a game...

 Like the 9 that GeoW2 got from OXM?



Thanks for the input, Jeff.

They also had an early Uncharted review last year, it was 9.1 as opposed to the gamerankings 90%, IGN are generally on the money (not folklore at all or Ratchet and Clank to a degree)

I kinda also think that a lot of reviewers in the industry take the IGN score and put their score in a range of +/- 5%. Its nothing against IGN, but it does seem that way.

But yea I was wrong there, still I don't trust when one or two sites get in too early.



Tease.
