Maybe a little . I played it around 12-15 times. I would have played it more if it recorded my best time like in the time trial mode.

I wonder how many people complained when LBP got a 10 from them.....

thats not saying much...

7 for Valkyria? Blasphemy, it deserves an 8 even by their supposedly lofty standards

You people are what's wrong with the review industry.

These reviews are too harsh? They gave out one 3, and nothing else below a 5! Apparently all games are average or better!

If you're ever wondering why video game reviews aren't taken seriously, here's one more example to explain why. You wonder why they give virtually everything 9s and 10s? Because you all bitch and moan when they don't. My god, I'd hate to see what would happen if they handed out 1s and 2s.

The problem with the review industry is, at least to an extent, the review industry itself; but equally to blame are some of the people in this thread. You are the reason why the scale is broken, you are the reason why Metacritic handles game reviews so differently than Movie/Music ones. Ever wonder why a movie that has a score of 80 is considered to have "universal acclaim," while a game that is 80 supposedly has "generally favorable reviews?"

Because of you. You skew the system, because you gnash your teeth and spew hatred whenever a magazine gives lower scores to games you love. Think of what movie reviews would be like if Film Critics gave better scores to terrible movies like 300 simply to appease the young, impetulant masses?

@bod

I agree the movie industry is so harsh in comparison.

SW episode 3 deserved 10's for ending a HUGE franchisE!!!!!

Yes! Clearly Film/Literature/Music criticism should be more like Games criticism, and not the other way around! :p

The only one that confused me was the Fallout 3 review.  I understand that not every game can be a 9 and I applaud them for giving a wider range of scores but just from what I've heard of Fallout 3 I would have thought it could score higher.

Hmm, ouch for Resistance 2, but Fallout 3's 7, imo, completely discredits the list.

That's just....not right...I hesitate to call it "dumb" but it certainly isn't smart.

Fallout 3 is my Game o tha Yer. I'm guessing they played the PS3 version.

I officially discredit these reviews.

Maybe they thought it would be disrespectful or awkward to give a 3 to Wii Music in the same issue that Miyamoto gushes about the game.
