Shadow of the Colossus. 9.0/8.5/9.0 - very nice.

Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow. 9.5/9.0/8.5 - GOTM?


Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga 2. 8.5/8.0/8.0
We love Katamari. 8.5/8.0/8.0

These two titles started blurring together when reading it (them having the same scores didn't help) - and now I'm imagining a Shin Megami Tensei / Katamari Damacy crossover. -_____-

Spartan: Total Warrior. 7.5/9.0/8.0

Excellent month all around. Really great to hear Shadow lived up to the hype. Also, Castlevania DS...oh God can't wait.
 
Burnout Legends 8.5/9.0/9.0

I'm sorry, but after playing this for as long as I could, I can't agree with this sort of score. The loading while playing crash mode was unbearable. The racing is good, but it's not 9.0 good.
 
Oh wait.. Dawn of Sorrows is the DS game?

Curses! I thought it was the upcoming console version.

Good for the DS, though.
 
Indigo Prophecy. 8.5/9.0/8.5
Shadow of the Colossus. 9.0/8.5/9.0
Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow. 9.5/9.0/8.5

Wait, what, two games scored higher and didn't get GOTM?

I'm suspecting fake.

Interesting disparity of scores. Refreshing.

You're kidding me? The game was ok, but defintely not good overall.

the only thing that makes it stand out is that it's an adventure game, and not many adventure games get released these days. average total.

who the hell says Indigo Prophecy is gotm? Because you're wrong.

obviously people who can't do simple addition and division. oh wait, that's EGM huahuahua
 
Kingdom Under Fire: Heroes 5.0/6.5/5.0

All it takes is bullshit like that to remind why I never read this trash. Christ I remember when they gave Deathrow a 3.0 and the review was like 3 sentences long.

Add the scores up. Dawn of sorrow is highest.

EDIT: NM
 
"Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney 7.0/6.5/8.5"

well, to be fair the game has limited replay value, and it is fairly simplistic in what you have to do, there is also the element that if you are stuck you can sometimes guess your way through so the game may have benefitted from having a harder mode where you can't make a single mistake (you can make five).

Only the new case added to the DS is substantially more complicated than the first 4 cases (the writting seems to take a bit of a hit, like all the humour packs its bags and leaves...)

But... for that one play through, it really is awesome stuff.
"Popolocrois. 5.0/5.5/6.5
AWWW FUCK!"

scores are STILL too high :(

Trauma Center: Under the Knife. 7.5/8.0/6.0
Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney 7.0/6.5/8.5

Wonder if the same guy gave the 6 and 6.5 scores for the two games.
 
Calidor said:
nope, Indigo prophecy is GOTM

no just no - its not even a really good game. hell, even the interactive movies back from the mid nineties were better.

PS:

where are the rumors???

Popolocrois. 5.0/5.5/6.5

AWWW FUCK!

Yeah, what a disappointment.
Not that I expected it to be GOTM or anything, around 7-7.5 would've been good enough for me. These scores are disheartening. :(
 
Those scores for Pheonix Wright sound good enough for me assuming the complaints are able replay value, I'll probably see if I can find a Used Copy to pick up later this year (I have a coupon).
 
:lol :lol @ IP scores. That "game" deserves no higher than a 6.5/7.0 rating. It's shallow even for an adventure game. And while the story is mostly pretty damn good, it just plummets straight to hell in the last act and leaves a sour taste in most anyone's mouth.

Seriously, if IP can get scores this high, killer7 deserves 8/9's as well. It had a story that was just as good -- if not better -- and it was more of a game.
 
This is from the EGM November issue? How fucked up are they on releases? Revenge came out in SEPTEMBER!

WTF I dare say. They need to reel their shit in before their publication date leaves us in the dust and their coverage is welcomed to last week.

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney 7.0/6.5/8.5

Battalion Wars is so not a 6.0/6.5 game. Come on.

I wanna know who gave the 6.0 for Trauma, the 7.5 for Nemesis, the 6.0 for Virtua Tennis, and the 6.5 for Phoenix Wright. Because they suck. :P

It doesn't matter which ones gave those scores. Very few of their scores are accurate and the ones that are probably got that way by accident or typo. I don't think there has ever been a magazine with this many scores I disagree with in a single month.
