Black on PS2 looks better than it imo.

And, not to mension 5hours 13 minutes to beat it... on his first time through, is rather shocking. People were complaining about Terminator: Salvation, why not about this?

Maybe because thats not what we have issues with?

 

You have issues with some guy from the internet, because of his opinion of the game.

Seriously, you are complaining about the review... but with the actual state the review is in... id be happy with the 7, as it should be much lower.

I'm sorry but this is getting on my nerves. It's one fucking review, and most of the people complaining are the same people who told ps3 fans to calm down after the Infamous Eurogamer review.

Where were you after Lair, Haze, Rachet, Uncharted, Killzone got bias reviews? It happens to all consoles, and we are wrong for overreacting to someones opinion.

Yeah the wii get blasted for its lacked of power, duh, just like the PS3 get blasted for being expensive and hard to develop for.

Wrong, the infamous review wasn't blamed on the PS3, this review is directly stated in the review that its low score is blamed on the Wii, and also, the reviewer said he didn't even play the multplayer.

Why do people who always start off with the words "I'm sorry" end up saying things out of frusteration, rather than calm clarity. You can see the difference, just think about it.

 This whole thread is made out of frustration, you are crying over a review From Gamepro, damn. And please do tell me why the wii cannot be blame for the conduit not loooking as good as it could have been?

I'm not crying over anything. I am standing against this injustice and telling my friends who agree with me to do so as well. If you don't like it, say your peace, but stop trying to brand me. I've said many times, exactly what this is about, that giving a game a low review because of the console its on, and that only playing half of a game and giving it a poor review, is wrong, everytime. Everyone knows that, even you. Stop trying to convince us we shouldn't care about the industry, and the mockery reviews like this make out of the entheusiast press.

I'm not mad. I'm just telling everyone about this injustice. Everyone should be told. I'm not crying. I'm exercising my godgiven power. To spread knowledge to the people I know about a product(gamepro) which absolute sucks.



I don't need your console war.

You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

You tell me how we cant blame any console game for no looking as good as it could on pc?

why not?  it appens all the times.

not in reviews, I don't think people deduct points because PC looks better in reviews lol, where are you getting at exactly?

it's just one review, and it got a good score. And he said he didnt like the graphics, infomous and prototype got point deducted for not looking stellar, big deal.

now you are just arguing for the sake of arguing, no one said anything about what he thinks of graphics or what number he gave the review.

It´s the way he said things in the review and this:

I'm not sure who I should blame for The Conduit's shortcomings. Do I blame the developer for making a rather generic shooter with a convoluted storyline that isn't as epic or mysterious as it wants to be or do I blame Nintendo for creating a console whose lack of hardware power essentially handcuffs every developer who tries to create a "next-gen" game for it?

That shouldnt be in any review proffesional or not.

I am a PS3 owner, i know about insults, you guys are making a huge deal out of nothing. What's sad is gamepro got more popular and hits because fanboys went crazy over a game. The biggest issue should be the fact he did not play the full game, yet the focus is on the shot on the wii, give me a break.

My problem would have been the same if it was on any console, he is a proffesional reviewer and alot of poeple base their buyibng habits on his review and some even base their opinions on it.

I dont want to wait untill this happens to any other console and thats why I air my opinion here.

The art style is totally crap imo, I've been saying that since day 1 actually, I was always hyped about the control for a console game. I don't know what difficulty he was playing on but it was probably pussy beta build mode, put any game on a relatively easy setting and skipping cut scenes will result in finishing the game faster, not to mention his build wasn't the final so the AI might act differently as well. btw Black doesn't nearly look as nice as The Conduit when in motion, not to mention that game is darker in general, making it easier to cheat the system where Quantum 3 is all real power.

Wait, this game was supposed to have an art style? What??? o_O

You should really look into some reading comprehesion classes, I stated i have no problem with the number ha assigned, I am actually suprised it got that good grade considering what he wrote and that he didnt even try the full game and he skipped the cutscenes while giving the story a bad review and so on.

Again my biggest problem is this part here:

I'm not sure who I should blame for The Conduit's shortcomings. Do I blame the developer for making a rather generic shooter with a convoluted storyline that isn't as epic or mysterious as it wants to be or do I blame Nintendo for creating a console whose lack of hardware power essentially handcuffs every developer who tries to create a "next-gen" game for it?

That's short term. The long-term is that less people subscribe to this magazine, and those reviews lose all credibility to everyone on this forum. That has already happened because of this.

This person should not be allowed to continue to biasedly review games, when he is counted on metacritic. That is another reason I am asking people to stop buying this magazine. Maybe this will teach him to take his job more seriously, because what he writes matters.

IGN UK and AU reviewed MGS4 without playing online.

And those reviews only gave 9.9 and 9.5. I sense an injustice! I demand a re-review!
