Around the Network

Currently at 98 on Metacritic.

That will come down, but what a start.

9.6 from ign, wow



Mass effect 2 baby!!!!!!!!!!!!



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

I want this fucking game, today, maxed out on my computer, now! without pirating that is.

Heres a quote from IGN's review.

"It's incredibly personal while still retaining a sense of epic sweeping scale. The combat and mission design are outstanding. The visuals, voice acting, soundtrack, and direction are miles ahead of the competition. Perhaps most impressively, Mass Effect 2 manages to fulfill its incredible ambition while only suffering from very few technical hiccups."

IGN's new graphics king.


This IGN 360 reviewers new graphics king.

What i don't get though, is that if he thinks the graphics are "miles ahead of the competition"... Why did they only get a 9.5/10?

Interesting...


Oh come on. Is that the spin? So when IGN said Uncharted 2 was the best graphics, it only applied to PS3? That is not how PS3 fans took it on this site. They would have said best looking 360 game like they did with Gears 2.

Now... Don't turn this thread into a ME2 versus Uncharted 2 thread. If you want to carry on... PM me.



                            

repost:
What do you think it will recieve from gametrailers?
i mean just in comparison, 2009 Goty got 9.3, it exceeded its prequel in everything but did not innovate and that was the reason for 9.3.
Mass Effect 2 also seems to do everything better than ME1, but does it innovate? What do you think?
Will it get more than 9.3 and gametrailers words of "a title has to innovate" are for the poo? Does it innovate (and at what) and get a better score?

Don't spoil too much lol, waiting for ma copy



Not to be complaining at a 9.6 review here, but did Brudvig really criticize it for being too "referential." I guess you have to have some cons but still, I don't grasp how it's a bad thing that the game is much better if you played the first one, which is on the same platform no less. *scratches head*
