Maxwell - you really have a closed minded way of looking at this... what a review is suppose to do is rate how much fun the player had with the game... How does numbers translate that?

Well based on the "fun" meter, Brawl, Left 4 Dead, Team Fortress 2, and LBP should all be 40/20 cause they're all about double the "fun" of Uncharted, Uncharted is more of a serious game with great story and tomb raderish gameplay, which isn't known for being "fun"

Were you there in that thread where I described how much I hated the word "fun" being used to describe games?

That thread was fun.

No... I wasnt.

EDIT: Who is this directed towards? Because I never describe a game as being fun. I just said a reviewers job is translating his enjoyment AKA fun into words/numbers

Uncharted 2 looks crazy...absolutely crazy...but 21/20? Very unrealistic. This is one reason why I'm against the scoring system.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

No... I wasnt. But I hate people who describe threads with the word fun.

But this thread had Rol saying I was probably being sarcastic!

Since I quoted Max, and Max was talking about fun in games, I think I was replying to you.

This is why I don't read score based reviews anymore



MaxwellGT2000 on 14 September 2009

But scores like this are for 2 reasons, the fanatics and shameless self promotion, you score something above your own scale it's automatically going to get a lot of buzz. Which is why this is rather pointless.

It is PSM3 so what do you expect, big hyped games will always get great results in official magazines (especially the exclusive ones). Im sure Uncharted 2 wil be great, but no game is perfect

Haze was hyped to be a "halo killer" and it received a 50 from US Playstation mag

50 is even higher than 21!

Uncharted 2 to be worse than Haze confirmed! =O

what's the difference between A and A+ because I got both in school and one time a teacher gave me 100 plus extra points for extara credit.

I hope it doesnt get a bunch of 10 scores so people's feeling wont get too hurt.

A and A+ and A- = 4.0 GPA... no difference
