Don't rub it in. If Uncharted gets below an 8, I'm going to kill myself.\

The ultimate ban bet.

Uncharted is a typical 8.5.

From any specific source, or metacritic average etc?

Because we don't want you killing yourself when "Xbox Defence Force" give it a 4/10

I guess you guys won't be picking up Warhawk either since reviews have been poor so far, right?

lol no, I was in the beta, that game is a 8.5 to 9. ANyone that gives it less is mentally ill/bought out.

I played the HS demo though, and couldn't see much more than a 6.5/7 in it if I'm honest, so these reviews don't suprise me.

Uncharted should be well into the 9s.

How do you know it isn't the same story with Heavenly Sword? The demo was short, and I doubt you instantly liked Warhawk.

All I'm saying is don't take reviews seriously, because you could end up missing out.

I donn't have an unlimited budget, I have to take reviews seriously. I know games can improve with time and demos aren't always representative, but I can tell you that the premise and first 10 minutes of Warhawk were more satisfying than that of HS.

hm... thats the whole problem, if you look at reviews seriously, some reviews say Wowhawk is 6.5 game...and list "issues" that few thousand beta testers didnt think of while playing game for the month . Thats why people cant take them seriously, before they actually play the game themselves.

I cant tell you what I think of HS or Lair because I never played the games - I did think that HS was 9 game from short demo though, that game wowed me. Warhawk took few hours to get into, but it is pure pleasure and an easy 9 for beta. I can see final even being better than 9. And it is affordable as well.

I simply dont think you can judge the game before playing it - you can judge production values to certain degree, but game itself no. And by judging production values, HS is an 10.

Too bad the HS demo wasn't 10 minutes.

To each his own. I just think using demos and forum impressions along with reviews is much better than using any individual source.

demo is the only way anyone can judge game for themselves, without purchasing it or renting it. Forum opinion sucks because you might not have same taste in games as other people...

So yes, I do hope Lair gets an demo, before I purchase it
