Gametrailers review is up 9.7

Do I dare watch it? They are usually quite spoilerific.... but I think I will risk it


Let me know if it is, so I know whether to watch it or not.

Do Not I repeat Do NOT watch the review. There are massive spoilers in the first half of the review. GT is usually really good about their video reviews but they gave away a huge plot twist in that review so like I said do not watch that review unless you want the story spoiled.

I wouldn't call it a huge plot twist, I roughly knew that, but I did ot like the way that they spelt it out, so to reiterate:

 

DO NOT WATCH THE GAMETRAILERS REVIEW

 

I can tell you they like it

And loads of reviews are flowing in

CVG: 9.3
Eurogamer 10
IGN UK 9.2

I think most sites have reviews up now

But, more importantly, my pre-order is being processed by GAME!

I think I finally have to try Mass Effect 1 again. I didn't get into it the first time. I hope I will like it this round. Reviewers are loving ME2.



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

I would definitely play the first before this one if at all possible.

Really? I haven't played the first one but am interested in this one as it sounds amazing, should I just jump in on this one or should I start with the first one? would I know what is going on if I just get this one?

Thanks!

 

P.S, amazing scores so far!

I believe there is a level of personalization in the story, and relating to the world you get if you play the first one first.  It is around $20 or so also.  It does have issues, you will need to deal with, like the bad handling of the Macco (sp?) vehicle you drive around, but it is playable still.

Thanks Richard!

The scores for this game are amazing!!!!

I wonder why is the PC version 3 points lower at 94. is it either PC game reviewers have higher standarts, or the PC version is lacking compared to the Xbox one (which is complete bollocks imo).



MY HYPE LIST: 1) Gran Turismo 5; 2) Civilization V; 3) Starcraft II; 4) The Last Guardian; 5) Metal Gear Solid: Rising
