^^^ Bioshock turned out pretty good

Brothers in Arms was done well technically too

It seems that Japanese developers are seeming to have a hard time grasping the engine. Go check the list on wiki there are a quite a few games that at least technically turned out well.

Score seems a little high considering what was said in the review.

Oh, I think my statement was a bit too harsh on other developers. But you know, like they say, the minority doesn't make the majority, especially in this case!

The game probably wouldnt get so much flack if SE had been given the updated unreal engine as demo'd in Gears 2..

and I think its the older version of the Unreal engine that's at fault not SE programmers..
Besides didn't Silicon Knights sue Epic over the Unreal Engine

im on CD2 since 2~ hours now. and 7,5 - 8 fits the game perfectly.
but the game has so much unnused potencial.. more work with it, and without theese fucking performance problems, it could be easily get a 9.
