Destroy All Humans! - Gamespot review

Wario64

works for Gamestop (lol)
7.5

http://www.gamespot.com/xbox/action/destroyallhumans/review.html

Ultimately, what makes Destroy All Humans! work isn't its gameplay. Rather, it's everything else that goes around it. The combat isn't really interesting enough to hold your attention by itself, and the game is only around eight hours long (it's longer if you try to get 100 percent on every level, which you probably won't want to do). So it isn't exactly teeming with lasting value. However, some of that is forgivable simply because the game does such a great job of creating a splendidly goofy world. The comedy is frequent and consistent, and from a purely presentational standpoint, this game does its concept extremely proud. Though perhaps that isn't enough to make the game worth its full retail price tag, games don't come much more suitable for rental purposes than Destroy All Humans!.
 
Thats the third time this week that IGN has given a lower score to a game then gamespot.


IGN is really trying hard to gain there credibility back

O thanks, but I always totally disregard everything in the review except the score and Gamespot says I might want to buy it when I look at the score
