hopefully sonner or later, 360 and ps3 fans will stop giving "omg best game ever" comments to games with pretty visuals and nothing else.

 

i hope your not referring to all games, because right now all i have to say is OMG look at bioshock amazing visuals AND SWEET STORY and gameplay and sound!

Same goes to all the other 9+ out of 10 games!

Game trailers-Halo 3 only dissapointed the people who wanted to be dissapointed.

Bet with Harvey Birdman that Lost Odyssey will sell more then Blue dragon did.

Hmm, really low score. I'm pretty disappointed. I found IGN scores pretty close to my preferences so far... Definitely it's not enough to change my decision regards this game. I've played the demo and personally I'm totally satisfied with gameplay.

There's always the Zero Punctuation review...

This is the main thing that worried me

"Throw in the decision to completely remove sword fighting again in chapter three (of six, one of which is simply a boss fight), replaced by some over-egged archery, then cripple it later still with some pretty but soulless silliness, and it adds up to maybe three to four hours of decent combat in a game which takes a rather embarrassing, and distinctly un-epic, six or seven hours to beat."

Thank god for being able to rent games. People complain about bioshocks lack of multiplayer but at least it has 20+ hours of gameplay as most reviewers have noted. I actually have bioshock thanks to gamefly and so far I can see why it has such replay value as already after 3 hours of playing I know how I will play it different the second time around. Again not sure about everyone else but I like good replay value for my moneys worth as to this date after buying gears at launch my friends and I play it regularly in multiplayer. Maybe they can add some downloaded content to make it longer and introduce co-op or something.

Yea i know..... i still think it looks to be a good game, maybe not the great people were hoping for though

I think we are seeing mixed reactions some people like these games some dont.

So those 3 big PS3 games arent so great. Well at least we still got LBP and Uncharted.

IGN UK is always interesting to see, I want to wait for IGN US's review.

Sorry to hear that robjoh. Would say try the demos though it doesn't compare to having the full game. Do stores have a 14 or 30 days return policy? Kind of cheap but whatever works when your trying to save yourself some money :)
