Eurogamer will rate it lower than a 9. Y/N?

 

[Guevara]

• Wrong hemisphere

8/10

My vote goes here too.

Depends which website happens to be down in hits this week.

 

[Munin]

So who wants to guess who slaps on the first 8.5 for website hits?

What's wrong with that score? Would not seem wildly inappropriate to me.

I hope it's Polygon. I like Arthur Gies' combative tweets.

 

[DSmalls84]

Anxiously awaiting the first bad review with this picture in it! Dat Face!

 

[strafer]

IGN - 9.5

Believe.

Who wants to guess who is unstable enough to flip their shit over a 8.5?

 

[Coolbgdog12]

First review eurogamer 6/10

 

[brandonh83]

I usually don't care about reviews that much but this will determine if I get it tomorrow or a few months down the line.

I'm kind of indifferent toward it (as I haven't played the others so I feel no connection) but if the reviews are glowing I may bite.

 

[ThaneKrios]

Eurogamer will rate it lower than a 9. Y/N?

8/10, just like U3 and BF3.

 

[Deadbeat]

First review eurogamer 6/10

Gamesradar = 10

You'll love

Gunplay that's updated and well-executed
Outstanding presentation and setpieces
Fun multiplayer designed to keep you engaged

You'll hate

Checkpoint system warps pacing in later stages
Sometimes, mechanics work against you
Plot may feel predictable to some

 

[fuzzyreactor]

yes!!!

 

[Deadly Cyclone]

[GeoramA]

OPM - 8/10

 

[Lambtron]

8/10, just like U3 and BF3.

I never understood the 8/10 freakout on GAF. 8/10 is a good score. It's probably higher than U3 deserved too!

 

[C_H_T]

IGN - 9

 

[BladeRunner12]

9.0/10 on Strategy Informer.

 

[Gui_PT]

Will jump out window if game doesn't deliver

Dream shattered.

 

[Plexirvones]

G4TV - 5/5 http://www.g4tv.com/games/xbox-360/61622/max-payne-3/review/

The Pros
Unrivaled combat fluidity
Slick, cinematic presentation
Brutal and expertly directed story

The Cons
Odd use of quick-time events
Golden guns feature kills pacing

 

[Moaradin]

OPM - 8/10

Pre-order cancelled.

Max, dearest of all my friends, you've got a few issues. I think that much is obvious. You're still a game, however, that I'd recommend all my friends play. You're the closest my console has come to making me feel like an action hero, and for that I'd almost certainly buy you yet another drink…
