We have this tread about edge having a big hyped game scoring worse than average every single time. Anyway, if you want to take edge reviews, seriously go ahead, but it doesn't mean that i have to.
| --OkeyDokey-- said: That's to be expected from EDGE. Just incase anybody cares, they gave Resistance 2 a 6 and Metroid Prime 3 a 7. Needless to say, I don't take EDGE very seriously. |
Thats pretty good reviewing for the above games as I understand it. The guys I know who have played Res 2 extensively have siad that they are pretty bored of it. And that they preferred the originals originality. If you read what they say about KZ2 they are pretty spot on. Although I would give an 8 to KZ2 off the demo. My view may change though when we play through the entire game in a few weeks.

“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
One thing though, people forget edge doesn't use the normal review system. They use 5 as average. SO hotd is great then.

It's good to have one dissenting review in the mix. When Halo 3 and GTA4 was unanimously 10/10, I have to say I was concerned.
Edge gave Valkyria Chronicles 7/10, so not too much more needs to be said.
"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY." --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

Snap, Kasz just kicked this topics ass.
Fanboys live in a scary world where every where they turn there is conspiracy. It's fucking ridiculous, get over yourselves.

They gave it as much as Valkyria Chronicles which means Killzone is truly amazing :D

kz2 looks no better than call of duty 4 imo...
Don't complain about the score people. Complain about the review.
It's much easier to make a complete fool of oneself if one is just complaining about the score. The score doesn't tell you what the reviewer was thinking when he played the game, what he values and what he misses. The score doesn't tell you how the experience was. The score doesn't tell you much, in fact.
So before you go complaining about the way Edge scores its reviews, READ THEM FIRST! And then complain about specifics in the reviews. That way you won't come off as rabid fanboys.
