That review, as bad as it is, causes controversy in two major points:

1 - It broke the review embargo, which Sony won't look kindly into it
2 - They said they reviewed the online, yet the servers only have been up for a couple of hours, so it isn't possible to give any kind of review with such low game time.

Basically zero professionalism in that review.

Yeah I think its just a troll review TBH

Its not even from jeuxvideo.fr!

What I found even more LOL worthy in that review is that even the people complaining about GT5 in GTPLANET, are also dissing it and calling it BS xD.

Haters got the review they can use to prove themselves right

Can't wait for the embargo to end tomorrow morning so that we'll see the 8's, 9's and 10's hopefully coming out of reviewers!

I really don't mind whatever score GT5 gets, what really makes me sad is the fact that people are going to throw untruthful remarks about the game and nitpicking the hell out of every minor small detail that isn't on par with the quality of the rest. 

I had hoped that GT5 would be reviewed and looked at for what it's worth, sadly it won't be so.

I agree...but it will be obvious which review does this and which doesn't once we read the material

For now I hope Jim Sterling doesn't review GT5

Reasonable on 23 November 2010

Well I like it.  Been playing since Monday - unexpectedly early delivery from Amazon.  Now with online available I can try that out too.

Seems very good to me so far.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

That's true, but still I'm kinda worried. 

To be honest, the only review i'm actually going to pay full attention is going to be InsideSimsRacing's review, since they are the best type of reviewers for racing sims, and i've throughly enjoyed their iRacing, GTR-2 and Forza 3 for being extremely professional.

Don't worry!

There will be some reviewers who are expecting something that GT5 simply isn't....but the sensible one's should be there in a larger number

We'll know tomorrow anyway!

When will InsideSimRacing have their review up?

lol indeed. the words jim sterling and review dont get along

talking about metascore though, I really doubt the game will get any less than a 90.

(In all honesty I was/am expecting it to be one of the highest rated games ever.)

Surprised by some disappointed reactions but I think people were expecting way too much!

Will not be up for sometime I think, since they usually take their time with the game before posting up the review. With Forza 3 they took almost a week after the game released.

Don't care what they say  STUPID PEOPLE  looking at trailers and going wow thats great  and forgeting that just as replays of past GT games make the game look better and more dynamic with effects and camera angles so do the trailers.

I expect a HD version of past GT games with a few changes and wont be dissapointed because that's  what i expected

and the thrill will be winning a race  by a millisecond ,my only dissapointment is the lack of Aussie muscle cars from the late sixties early seventies ,just because codemasters has the V8 supercars licence doesn't mean they can't have cars like the ford GTHO Phase III falcon the worlds fastest production 4 door sedan of it's time  and many others.



Research shows Video games  help make you smarter, so why am I an idiot

Any ideas when GT or ign eurogamer are posting their reviews, hell even G4 

?
