I was the one that originally asked that because in the OP you see

"- bots in offline multiplayer "perform pretty well""

Now they have repeatedly said no split screen, no offline/online co op, but how can there be offline multiplayer in a TPS or a FPS without splitscreen?

It's possible, I can only list PC games though as you do it to train.

I believe you can have bots in online too, but I don't recall exactly. In the beta I remember seeing people without names playing, but I don't know if that was a bot or not.

It says offline multiplayer though, so that excludes your second statement. I don't see how a TPS/FPS can have offline multiplayer without split screen.....

It's not that hard if you factor out consoles and look at PC games. Maybe it could, but like you said, they've said it wasn't going to happen.

I believe the first one had offline multiplayer with bots, but I just don't know if it was splitscreen or not.

The 1st one had split screen offline MP with bots, how does this work on PC?

Honestly I have to see this review to believe it.

5 / 5.... man that would be awesome.

Not to take anything away from the game itself, it's on my first dy purchase list, but I would be very weary of these unusually early exclusive reviews, regardless of the game they're reviewing. I can only imagine the list of stipulations and conditions that came with the ability to publish a review first and this early. The last exclusive, early review I read was Fallout 3 in OXM and it was the equivalent of a blow job.

I would agree, but that's why I'm eager to see how the other reviewers are going to score it.

It's going to be an interesting two months, that's for sure.

maybe sony is letting one review a week come out until the game release as part of its marketing knowing in advance that these website will be giving perfect scores. sounds like a great way to market the game.

CANT WAITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
