Games not out for a month. how do sony games get these early reviews? Killzone 2 had reviews a month in advance.

Halo ODST is out in 5 ays and we are still waiting for a review...

naughty Dog just decided to send games out early and not have an embargo. Halo ODST was done months ago and they could've done the exact same thing, they just decided not to.

Well if thats the case I guarantee you there are stipulations...otherwise IGN would be doing the review this week. They must get to choose which reviews go out early or something.

I have never seen a review copy with any kind of stipulations. I've had Demon's Souls for almost a month and even though I could've reviewed it before I was thinking of putting up the review a week before release when the game will most be on people's minds. Could be the exact same situation here.

doesnt that show badly on microsoft rather than sony.Not letting people hear the review until the last minute or once the game is out sounds like their too scared of getting bad reviews

Halo ODST is out in 5 ays and we are still waiting for a review...

- preview built can be sent to reviewer, it is not the finished game but it is close so some site use them to make their review

- there is an embargo on Halo ODST review

MS used their money (guess) to not allow people to release their review too early.
One would say it is because the game sucks, or it is not worth the money (too short) but I will not allow my self to say it (it is perhaps good after all ...)

also, u dont want review to break the insane amont of preorder in the USA alone ?

(I know, even if the review are bad, those guys will get the game anyway ...)

I work in online advertising and have worked for sites and online publishers before. There is no money changing hands for reviews... Publishers have to follow review embargo dates and this could be why the Halo review is not out.

However IGN is releasing it on Satuday...well before the game is out. So by Monday lots of reviews should be available.

Anywho, I just find it suspicios when game gets reviewed a month early. Kinda like ..."here, you can review this early if you hype it up and make it seem like its the best game ever"

are you suggesting that sony paid for the review?

generization without evidence i know but,... typically games that turn out great are released early so that great reviews can build up some hype. games that turn out bad have a review embargo so bad reviews don't turn off day 1 buyers. take that how you will.
