Also let me say that if you're an RPG fan, and a 7/10 pushes you away from a game that you thought looked great, I call bullshit.

Well. Lost odyssey did not get too great reviews either but it was a good game.

Just preordered mine from Amazon this morning for $39.99 with code for 3 formations! :) I never really trust ratings. It's all dependent on each person. I for one thought Fable 2 was a 9.8/10 when IGN gave it 8.8. I think this game will be great!

Currently loving my Wii x2, Xbox 360 Pro & Xbox 360 Arcade, and Final Fantasy 7 Advent Children Limited "Cloud Black" 160GB PS3

Hey Zen,

M$ bought another flop .

I would like to point out that despite you saying that if someone used this phrase, they were immediately "owned" before you even had to reply because it' so "predictable"....why don't you stop and think that it's predictable because, you know, IT'S TRUE!

Quick example: 2+2=?

Zen: THE PS3 FANS WILL SAY 4! IT'S SO PREDICTABLE! OWNED!!!!1!1!1!@?

PS3 fans: Uhh...yeah, you're right

LO Freakin L

Yes, you couldn't say it without mentioning me. Flaming me, and disguising your troll is a way to passive-agressively slip your opinion in without becoming tedious.

Now, I was pressed by a Sony fan, to tell you all why I said what I said. The truth.

Because the truth owns liars. It's as simple as that. Especially when you tell the truth before they get a chance to lie by omission about it.

The truth is no Sony fan gives OXM any credibility until they give a 360 exclusive a bad score. Then they act as if the game must certainly suck. You can't have it both ways, because I won't allow it.

Shocking I know what I'm talking about sometimes, huh?

Also, don't paraphrase my posts in internet language. I hate that shit.

WTF are you talking about? "Disguising your troll as a way to passively slip my opinion". Huh? I let you know how I felt. It's stupid to say you "owned" people before they respond just because you know THE TRUTH. It's just like when people go on forums and say "IN BEFORE (insert certain phrase)"

If I had said that M$ bought another flop...would that be UNtrue? No, it wouldn't, so how is this "truth" of yours "owning" me?

And why would not give OXM credibility? Aren't their scores always in the general area of what either GameRankings or Metacritic has as a game's aggregate? They gave gears a 9, and deservedly so and close with its aggregate. They gave Naruto:ROAN an 8 which is only 2 off from its Metacritic score. They gave Too Human a 7, once again close to its aggregate. Why not give them credit?

"Especially when you tell the truth before they lie by omission" How does saying what a "PS3 fan" would say the truth...but then at the same time, what "PS3 fans" say is a "lie by omission"? Are you therefore lying? If so, then everything you ever say is moot.

And please, don't be upset by my "paraphrasing" because it was totally applicable, as it's EXACTLY the same as what you said in your original post just in a different analogy...or is this a situation of me stating the truth and you getting mad and then "lying by omission"? LOL

didn't you get the memo?

I let reviews influence me to an extent, they don't determine if I play a game, but rather if I should rush out to get it upon release. (especially right now with all these quality releases)

Although it's important to read the review and see what led them to give this score. Because it is possible that the reviewers negatives may not be a big deal to you.
