Gamespot is biased to 360? Are you kidding me? The Wii has been getting rediculously goodsupport from them, honestly how many ppl just ended up renting or skipping metroid? 8.5/10 is well deserved, it's not like we havent seen it before.

Next, has anyone been aware of what gamespot is giving xbox 360 games?

Two World's: 7.0/10 "A poor man's oblivion" - gamespot

Tigerwood's 08: 6.5/10

Stranglehold: 7.0/10

MOH Airborne: 7.0/10

Wait.. so this guy is saying that Gamespot is more biased towards 360 then wii? .. Hmm.. first of all: Chicken!

Second of all: GS is way more biased to Wii then 360. Giving MP3:C A 8.5 when on every other site it got a 9+ is being biased.

I don't mean to name-call, but you are one step below retarded. Congradulations.

XBox 360 does have a lot of overrated games. The Wii does too. BUT Gamespot is quite biased to the 360. IGN is more of a Wii supporter. Gamespot loves graphics a lot, from what I read. If you rented Metroid or skipped it, I feel for you, because you are missing out on one of the best games to grace the Wii. The only game that is on the market right now that competes with it is Bioshock. Bost are great games, but Gamespot loved Bioshock more (360) and IGN loved Metroid more (Wii). See what I mean?

And all of the games you posted for the 360 either weren't that great or did just plain suck. Stranglehold was overrated. I stopped played after the first hour. Metroid, however, is captivating. It has a great story, phenominal controls, and beautiful graphics.

Seriously, think about what you say before you post some obnoxious comment that's just going to get you made fun of.

Foola you got your words wrong, it should read biased against wii not biased to it. And yeah TC most magazines gave those games the same scores, I know for one that loads of reviews of airborne gave it 6-7's. But with Wii it seems they all get .5-1 less than every other site. Oh yeah and MP3, Zelda TP etc, are first party games, airborne and stranglehold are 3rd party games that weren't that hyped and won't get that good scores from anywhere.

The games you listed for 360 dont even deserve those scores. Two Worlds getting a 7, thats being over generous if you ask me.

bravo well said, i agreed with you 100 percent, strangle hold was very overrated game,and reminded me of a bootleg version of max Payne, and also if anything game spot loves the 360 and the wii. just cause the game got a 7.5 isn't bad at all just means that it need more improvement. and if you ask me 8.5 isn't bad for a metroid prime 3 gamespot score either(even though i do want it higher.)

I just thought I'd butt in here and say that the TC's got it backwards, as anyone who's looked read so me of the Wii reviews compared to the 360 reviews and thought I'd also go ahead and agree with someone else who posted here that some of the reviewers at Gamespot are graphics whores. Anyone else notice all the graphics comparisons they have? As far as I know, Metroid Prime 3 is much better than Madden 08 could ever hope to be, both in gameplay and, I daresay, though less importantly, in graphics. Metroid Prime 3 has probably the best environments I've ever seen in any game to date, and to score JUST an 8.5 really surprised me. Just also thought I'd point out that Gamespot is the only site listed on the "Other Reviews" to give it below a 9 except for "Worth Playing," which I can't say I've ever heard of =\

This belongs in System Wars, not the Wii forums.
