Look post #6603

....We're only using the hard drive as a cache, the game doesn't need to be installed, but the fact the hard drive is on every PlayStation 3 helped our streaming technology dramatically.

I don't think in 9.5's or 9.4's, only in a 9 or a 10. I will talk about it with my editor in chief and play the game some more (although I already completed it and playing it again) and then make my decision. My intention is to give it a 9 but my review sounds like a 10. Still have to think about what those ratings exactly mean, as I made our review ratings document myself. So it's a tough decisions, but right now I feel like giving it a 9. It's such an extremely great game, but I didn't have this 'pure classic' feeling I had with Mafia and Resident Evil 4, for example.

Yeah but you liked it you called it a "extremely great game" you played it twice & its sounds like you want to play it more, doesn't that count for something? I think you should give it a fair score, but to me it sounds like you want to give it a 10.

Well if your writing sounds like a 10 but it gets a 9 it will simply sound like every review I have read today.

I was just explaining how I enjoy simply gaming. Whether Drake clips a tree or not won't effect me.
I also didn't mind Pirates of the Carribean. Yes I am the one that buys these games.:D

Then you better stay away from game forums especially GAF. Some of the bitching, knit picking can have a terrible effect on your mindset on games...just saying.

Heh I remember when videos not too long ago came out and people were talking about how the AI looks dumb. Now we're at the point where the game is being docked points because it's too hard for people.

Right ... so im looking at Uncharted's Metacritic score and they included the same 8.5 review twice (1up/EGM).Same conclusion 'n all :/

wtf is up with that?
Click to expand...
MetaCritic takes scores from the various media outlets, it doesn't recognize EGM adn 1up as one entity, they are independant resources that people may look to for scores, thus are entered individually.

Expect worse. Much worse. I don't give a crap what anyone says now, PS3 exclusives can not catch a fucking break.

Given the state of game stories these days, yes. That's just pathetic.

Seriously. Did you see their cons???? For the sites that mentioned cons, its downright stupid, and for the sites that praised it to death gave it a 9 or 9.1 :/

I know you don't think in 9.5's or 9.4's...but what I was saying is that you know it's closer to a 10 than it is to a 9...and a 9.5 has to be rounded up to a 10 :)
