You should know by now that every Eurogamer review has PS3 bias!

Goddamnit Eurogamer....

And yes, God help them. This is the site that gave Halo 3 a 10/10...and MGS4 an 8. The site that scored inFAMOUS and Prototype the same score as.....50 Cent.

God, PLEASE help them

As ever (and I'm not talking about bias any particular way, for PS3 or 360) I remain amazed that review scores can have such a huge spread.

From 60 to 93? That's a huge range of views. When I see this I can't help feeling the top reviews are probably biased towards the title/console, the bottom just trying to make a point or be different, and the more middle range reviews probably a better indicator of the game.

Pretty much how I see it...



Former something....

I second that. There scores are designed to drive traffic to their site.

You should completely discount Eurogamer, which makes the range actually 75 to 93.......and there's only one 75 review, and the rest are 80 and above

And I guess, IGN, GamePro, CheatCC, etc....bias towards PS3 confirmed? Where's my Lair 10/10 review at?

With online currently so laggy as to be broken, I fail to see how they can review this fairly either positively or negatively.

Eurogamer and Gamespot never cease to disappoint.

Deserves whatever good-great scores it gets, IMO. One of the best downloadable titles available.

Of course, I still say Wipeout HD is downloadable King, but that's another thread

I vastly disagree with that. While I think comparisons between games like Wipeout HD, Trine, and Castle Crashers is fine, you really can't believe that Wipeout HD is better than Braid, can you? I can only think of about 10 games that were better than Braid, ever, on any console.

My favorite DLCs this gen have been:

1. Braid

2. Lost and the Damned

3. Point Lookout

4. Trine

5. World of Goo

6. Castle Crashers

7. Portal: Still Alive

8. Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition

9. Wipeout HD

10. SFII:HDRemix

Now, if you've played all of those, and can still not only rank Wipeout HD as your favorite DLC, but also the "King" of DLC, then you sir, are a huge fan of the game.

Now, don't get me wrong. I can see how someone would put Wipeout HD at the 2nd spot on their list, easily, and in a rare preference based instance, I can see a handful of people even putting it at number one....but saying that it's the king of DLC when Braid exists?

Seriously, did you forget about Braid when you said that, lol?



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.
