LOLhow did I completely miss that.

Torrillian - that would be hilarious. Remember years ago how people were like "LOL ps3 version scored lower its a worse game" I wonder how many times this will be rubbed in 360 fans face

And LOL @ people talking crap about IGN... looks like they will be pretty smack dab on the average. Maybe a tad lower.

More reviews. Not that great.

Not that bad either

They're terrible for some

this would be so weird if one ended up above 90 and the other didn't just because IGN and a few other sites didn't get the PS3 version for reviewing

That, would be rather funny.

I'm sorry, IGN needs to rethink their review system, Prototype would be my favorite sandbox game this gen, if not for inFAMOUS!!!! It IS that good!

I'm not so sure CGI. Your tastes in gaming are pretty unique. You actually liked Fracture and Dark Sector.

What other games has this developer made? I'm surprised it was hit hard, it looked pretty solid

Eh I don't understand how this can be rubbed in someone's face. Has there been a Prototype comparison yet with PS3 owning, either way I wouldn't care which version is better, I still paid for Fallout 3 on Xbox with it's lower textures, and I'd do the same for any game I think is entertaining. If anything I find this a bit annoying, because Torillian's prediction came true, Prototype is somehow a AAA 91 based off 9 reviews game on PS3 yet is a 83 on Xbox with 13 reviews.

The annoying part about this? It doesn't follow the logic of fanboys, I would've expected Prototype to get hyped reviews from 360 than PS3, since we don't have inFamous. It also does show that IGN's score is not on average, also why is it that UK IGN score is talked so much while AU's 8.5 gets ignored for comparison.

Hmmm, those games were pretty good for what they were. I think CGI's tastes are at the good place. ;)

Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...
