That is a better score than I was expecting. A 7 indicates to me a solid fun game let down only play a lack of polish. If I had a 360 I would probably get it. Ah well.

What is up with games being "hammered" and "fragged" lately. These games are getting 7/10s....that's not "hammering". Does it go against the hype train? Yes. Are the average review scores lower than 90%? No

So far this week I've seen:

Resident Evil 5; 8/10 from PlayStation Official Mag UK (Begining of underwhelming RE5 reviews??)!

and now this thread claiming a 7/10 game has been hammered.

Why do people expect all the major franchises to get a 9 or 10 out of 10 and are people now so narrow minded they can't see that 7 and above means it's actually a pretty good game?

agreed, it seems only sensitive fanboys find such scores a problem....

not really

8/10 for the sequel of Gamecubes Best game (RE4) & a game in the "top 10! games of all time list on metacritic" IS underwhelming

All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

So per this list Crayon Physics is as good as or (=) to KZ2, and is better than Halo Wars. I mean per these reviews Fear 2 is as good as KZ2 (I highly doubt that). I am sure both communities will have something to say about that one. Just FYI, I consider a "hammering" to be like a 5 or lower. A 7 on a 10 scale is above average if not higher.

Personally, I think that a 7 for a console RTS is a great score. Already have my collectors edition reserved and cant wait to pick it up. Above 80 average on Metacritic is my quess-timate.
