gameover said:
Of course Halo is better than uncharted

let's see how many people will play uncharted after 3 years

its ignorant to compare a game that u will play for a week or two with smth that is #1 in multiplayer for years (and years to come..)

Uncharted 2 has multiplayer that will be played until Uncharted 3 will release.

more people playing online = Huge sales (halo 3)

but does popularity = quality ?

 

You cant compare the 2 in the first place... wildly popular fps vs mildly popular tps with platforming/puzzle elements...

GTFO.

And it's ignorant of you to ignore what reviewers said about Uncharted 2 online.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

i don't even need to read more than op to know what will happen here. it will be funny to read all that "rage" that the game scored so low - as always without reading review cause we all know that only those "Shit/10" means something since review is always about visiting grannies in foster house or somethin.

Please don't post in this thread anymore. Nobody complained that 9 is not enough..This is EDGE we are talking about. Take your trolling somewhere else.

yes nothing can beat MGS4 except maybe FF13

A big maybe, but I completely agree.

Also, seeing Edge, one of the most biased game reviewers, give Uncharted 2 a 9/10, just shows that the game is undeniably amazing.

actually
now that i think about it..

Uncharted 2 really isn't innovative. Which is what edge really puts over everything else.

Hence demon's souls score. I mean, its technically not that great, and it has its flaws, but the innovation and atmosphere brang it up to a 9.

With uncharted, its a far greater game than anything else we've played this generation, but it doesnt create anything new. and because of that, it only gets a 9.

While halo gets a 10 because, lets face it, before halo came online games on consoles just didnt work as well as they do now, and you can thank halo and bungie for what they did. (Naughty Dog thanked them!)

While uncharted is a far better game, EDGE is a magazine that reviews in a different light. hence why games like MGS4, which are also vastly better than Halo 3, do not score as high.

as much as I hate halo and its players, whiney annoying kids who call everyone faggots etc, the games online system, to this day, has not been topped. And because of it many games INCLUDING uncharted are different.

That is why edge gave it a 9.

a 9 from edge from a game that has no innovation is a HUGE score.

 

The real issue is ODST.

ODST is really just microsoft vomiting in a case and putting Halo on the cover, but whatever. There was obvious bias in that review

Firefight is just horde mode with some horrible design choices, the game is too short with more horrible design choices, there is nothing innovative and its trying to re sell ideas. Edge SHOULD of given it a 4/10, but due to their extreme bias gave it a 9.



Edge are biased 360 fanboys, I do not accept this score.

Haha, I bet they gave a 9 through gritted teeth.

Blatantly wanted to give it a 7.

Or they thought it deserved a 9 and marked it faithfully as they do most of their reviews...

I think this is the thread in which I have been quoted the most in all my posting history.

I agree to some extent with what you are saying but I feel that they don't overly value innovation.  It is a factor, but not a large one...  For example, BioShock received a low score and there was lots of excellent innovation in it...

I find Edge compares games to all the others available in the genre (and on other consoles) rather then just assessing them based on what's in the box.  That's why you see low scores on seemingly good games and high scores on re-packaged games.  When you compare games across the entire genre and consoles you get a far different review then when you assess your impression of a game in vacuum out of the box (That's why Killzone 2 and BioShock got beaten up by Edge...  Out of the box they are awesome games, but when compared to others in the genre they fall flat in key areas...  For BioShock it was the lack of multi-player, for KZ2 it was probably the generic FPS gameplay).
