Forums - Gaming - First Review of Halo:ODST - 4/10

I thought there was a review embargo until the 19th? If this is an actual legitimate review that the author has written up after playing the game and giving it a fair shot then these guys might just end up in a world of (legal) pain. If this is a fake (or biased) review then I guess it means nothing. I'm in no position to judge whether the review is legit or not but I don't exactly care for reviews when purchasing my games. Videos, gamer's word of mouth (especially on these forums - some of you guys and girls have excellent taste. I would've never taken the plunge past the demos of Uncharted and VC if it weren't for you) and demos is what I'll base my purchases on.

And from what I've seen so far, this game just seems to get more interesting with each piece of footage released. It looks like everything Halo 2 promised to be in the campaign and really - that's all I wanted from the Halo campaigns since finishing Halo CE.

Excuse me Kowenicki? That hurts a bit. Never did I claim the game is crap. Never did I claim the review was good. Please don't put words in my mouth.

If this is the guy's first review, then surely that supports my 'he isn't a biased reviewer, just a shit one' theory

It doesn't support or refute it.  He may be an extremely biased reviewer, or the world's fairest, but until he reviews a much larger selection of games we have no way of knowing which he is.  Considering the vast majority of previews from people talking about the game, who had played it at cons, etc... were positive, I can't shake the feeling that he is, in fact, biased. 



Look! I am going to give a bad score to a popular game! Omg I am getting hitz for my websitez!



Some people are on the uber defensive in here

It's a review, from a Wii website. Sure, it seems odd... but they have given out big/decent scores to other PS360 titles.

Thats 2 reviews, with 2 bad scores. Deal with it.

Why is it that only no-name review sites have reviewed it yet?

Somehow, I doubt this or the 64/100 review will end up on any review aggregate.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

It is another nonsense review because they have not even played the game. That previous fake Halo:ODST review did not even mention Halo:ODST until the second page and they did not tell us much about the game besides making up negative crap.

Official reviews on Halo:ODST are not even released until September 19.

As was said earlier, there is no such thing as on "official" review for a game.



                            

Let me post my review of the game real quick.

Halo ODST is great fun. 89/100.

There, that makes 3 reviews.
