Yoshi Topsy Turvy: 4.0, 3.5, 4.5, 4.0

There's also an article on the Revolution controller. It's the mockup with the big giant touch screen taking up most of it and they say it's most likely what it'll be like.
 
GamePro has no idea what the controller will be like.
And the Darkwatch score is too high if the demo is indicitive of the final product.

Madden NFL 2006 (Xbox): 4.5, 4.0, 4.0, 5.0
Madden NFL 2006 (GC): 4.5, 4.0, 4.0, 4.5

NCAA Football 06 (PS2): 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 4.5
NCAA Football 06 (Xbox): 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 4.5


Why does the Cube version of Madden get docked but the PS2 version holds up against the Xbox version? Same with NCAA...

I bought NCAA on the PS2 for the first time time this year, and I'm a little upset at the slowdown and cruddy color in comparison with the Cube versions of past years.

I'm guessing lack of online takes away from the fun.

Wait - is this a 2.5, 3.0 and a 2.5 averaging out to be 1.5? Maybe there's some trick to these GamePro scores that I'm not aware of?

i forgot what the order is, but they have cateogories that they rate (graphics, sound, controls, fun factor)

They don't technically use an average. Fun Factor is a standalone score, though it could be considered the most important, or "overall" score, it is not the average of the others.
 
GamePro sucks HORRIBLY.

And by their rating scale, Kirby and Meteos should be 5.0 games.

And IT WON'T FUCKING HAVE A TOUCH SCREEN HOLY SHIT.

fun factor is what really matters in Gamepro scoring scale, Fun Factor is like gameplay while the others ones are the techinical aspect of the game.
 
yep, gamepro is pretty shitty. my free subscription is almost over, finally. took about 2-3 years :lol
 
WELL CRAP.

Thanks to the 10 people that answered my question...


Also - I disagree on the score. Rogue Agent DS at 1.5 is too low. I'd give it a 2.5 or 3.0.
 
The magazine has now made it so it goes back and forth between previews and reviews. So very annoying and pointless.

So basically every game got a good score except for one?

Something smells funny there.
GamePro has always been that way. Have to appease the advertisers, after all.
