Maybe Sony should have made this for PC. PC Gamers wouldnt have complained about a PC only FPS... I guess PS3 fans cant handle a "hardcore" FPS like MAG... its to social for them. Games must be lifeless with a crappy singleplayer FPS story and play like Haze.
Same thing seemed to happen with Warhawk...

Pretty much they say it suffers because it doesn't have a single player campaign and then kind of tacked on that some people will go gung ho instead of follow the team.

I think TheSixthAxis will be re-reviewing the game as well as one of the scores I linked in this thread. Also the reviewers didn't postpone their reviews, Sony put an embargo on reviews so that the reviewers would actually have to play the retail release along with the users who purchased the title that way they can give a better review, but unfortunately it seems many ignored it. Glad you agree with me that too many people worry about the score and not the actual review itself. This is why I don't like using metascores in arguments. |
Well, I don't see too many reviews on metacritic. So frankly as long as it settles in the 80's range, I don't think any score nuts should fret about it. I know the game will sell well. And that's all that matters.

Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!
Kojima: Come out with Project S already!
Fixed the translation from the article if anyone was interested in reading the closing statement.
I also hope their "Failure to not have a single player still runs the risk of not achieving what they are trying for" isn't one of the reasons for the knockdown, because I am not sure if "ifs" qualify.
Anyways it doesn't sound like they are too fond of the game but they say the gameplay is good.

How can they dock points for no SP...thats like docking PS3 game because it doesnt play in the 360.
There are 2 things that i will completely disregard reviews of these types of games for.
1. Complain about no single player.
2. Complain about people not being good before the game streets.
It seems these are the main complaints which makes no sense.

Those two along with the ocassional graphics complaint is really all your going to find in terms of cons with these reviews which to me means the game is incredibly solid at what it set out to achieve.
They knew from the start it was MP only and it really is foolish to attack for something they knew it was never going to have. Sounds kind of like the NSMB Wii online complaint huh? This is why I wish people would read the reviews. People who were looking forward to MAG for the multiplayer would see that the game has very positive things said about it when it comes to that aspect.

You said it, ... imo MAG isn't all that interesting anyway, it looks and plays like one of those generic year 2000 games.
Now if the right person reviews WKC: IE on IGN (Not one of those jrpg haters) watch how it gets somewhere around an' 8.5 to a 9 for lasting appealing, maybe a little higher.

Generic 2000 games? you mean like every FPS ever released since then?
