Forums - Gaming - IGN Reviews Prototype... ouch.

And Eurogamer gave it a 7. I still think a 7 from Eurogamer is better than a 7.5 from IGN, but that's just me

How is a 7.5 bad??? I think this only applys when it's exclusive to a console....if it gets a 7 then watch the fanboys bash the game to the max.

Wait, a 20 hour gets a 6.5 for lasting appeal?

I don't care about Prototype that much but that's pretty much bullshit.

did you read the review?

a 20 hours game with many repetitve missions (according to the reviewer) got a 6.5 for lasting appeal



7.5 isn't a bad score in my book.



4 ≈ One

@ Zen: How come you rate GiantBomb when it was founded by Jeff from gamespot, the one you hate? I know it has other staff than just him, but still...

Because it's not a bad site, just not gamespot level.

Anyway, with the Eurogamer 7/10, and the new 8.5 from IGNau, this IGN score is the only "poor" review this game has gotten, by a mile.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

No, it's not just you. It's obvious to anyone who knows anything about videogame reviews.

Ah yes, I do wish more sites would just stick to a 10 point system and then actually use the full spectre, and not just 7-10 for everything that is mediocre to top of the class.



Pretty pathetic to put an embargo on reviews up to the day after the game releases.

I actually like the concept more then the one used in inFAMOUS, but as soon as I heard that they are cutting the multiplayer to focuse on the singleplayer I knew they are cutting corners :|
