thank god Kevin VanOrd reviewed this. Jeff would've given it like a 2. when you enter someone who doesnt review games as much, I think they try to do it better
I thought Gamespot reviews were ''untrustworthy'' :|

LOL, they are until you agree with them.
You mean until they get a high score :wink:
Such is the fanboy condition.
not really the score, its the reasoning. Scarface for example, the bad: 'bad controls!' .. far from bad controls. I just hate their reasoning some times.. seems idiotic at points.
I just think the rankings are a little inconsistent. How is Raving Rabbids an 8, MP8 a 6.5 (i think), and Warioware a 9.1? They are all fun, yet similar games that have been given very different scores. If you go by GS rankings alone Warioware should be the best game for the Wii. I don't know many people who think that. Most people would say Zelda, which most people would say is at least a 9.0. This is regardless of whther it is better than OoT or not.
Anyway, the point is that 9.1 is a good score as far as i can tell (haven't played the game yet). I just wish GS would be more consistent.
The Good: Intuitive, elegant controls make playing RE4 a joy all over again; nail-biting action features creepy enemies and gargantuan bosses; top-notch production values create an atmosphere of tension and dread; long, suspenseful story and excellent replay value make this a steal for 30 bucks.
If you've played the original on the GC or PS2 then you already know what to expect and have probably already bought it. If you've never played it I suggest you do so. It's better than a 9.1 IMO.

That I can agree with (Scarface), but most people go by the scores (even when they really should examine the write up). If they ever rate a game lower than IGN its automatically discarded as hate towards Wii and thats wrong.
