Again,
CNET owns Gamespot,
CNET has a massive advertising agreement with Microsoft,
CNET said Vista was "perfect out of the box" and "The future of home computing",
CNET dictates to gamespot what can and can not get good reviews,
since the major competitor (demographically I mean) to the 360, is the ps3,
gamespot cannot give ps3 good reviews,
heck, we have at least 4 AAAE titles over at IGN.com, which does better reviews,
honestly, gamespot has the best forums, so, we are stuck here,
BUT, I wouldn't beleive a single review on a ps3 or a 360 game here.

I couldn't have said it better myself.

Whoa conspiracy,

Vista is the future of home computing

and most PS3 games suck

if you don't like gamespot, then why are you here again?tgschmidt

The forums. But I go by gamespot's and IGN's reviews. Sometimes I end up going on gamerankings.com. But I do agree with you that Uncharted didn't deserve a 8. I think they are also biased towards Nintendo. Mabye if gamespot is this biased they will give MGS4 a 8 instead of a 9?

Common sense and observation tell me that the GS bias is real. Come on, 8.0 for Uncharted and 7.5 for Ratchet and Clank? Those reviewers should never be allowed to touch a game again must less rate them. Reviews on this site are a waste of time. However, the forum is informative because real people who actually play the games can give you a better review than some biased/bought review.

If you really look, almost every review website is biased and/or corrupt in some way. Ign, gamespot, basically every website exept maybe ps3fanboy(given). but the way i see it is that they take the halo approach. the halo approach is that they rate a game based on
A. the fanbase of a game
B. How much hype for a game
C what console (ps3 = raped by reviews while 360 = gaming gold)

gamespot cant possibly hate the ps3. that has nothing to do with it. why in gods name would they hate a system? it seems biased but really its just that all those games deserve an 8, no online, plus they all have their faults.

they rate jsut as many 360 games low as ps3 games, its just that we have less games in general so it seems more devestating.

also, look at who reviews the game and then look at other scores they ahve given. that might explain alot (i.e. aaron thomas reviewed heavenly sword an 8, and thats the second highest score he's EVER given a game)

WHAT? k first, you said no online. Mass Effect was given higher reviews, and personally i think its crap-tacular, it has no online. so your thesis is gone.. and somehow, Uncharted made it on to the top 10 list of 2007 but only got an 8.0... hmm.

I believe Ukillwegrill owns all consoles...which is why he seems to look down on many single console owners in some of his posts.-_-

Agreed. Gamespots biased opinion is too evidently portrayed nowadays.

Yes. Especially when compared:

Folklore, my fav ps3 game, top notch action rpg:
IGN.com - 9/10, which is about right to me
Gamespot.com - 7.0/10, claiming it had story quirks, then claiming the story was great...?

Resistance: FOM:
IGN.com - 9.1/10
Gamestop - 8.6/10

Uncharted:
IGN.com - 9.1/10
Gamestop - 8.0/10

Motorstorm:
IGN.com - 8.9/10
Gamestop - 7.9/10

so, there's 4 examples of ps3 exclusives that gamespot underrated.

Alright I dunno what's up, maybe it's just me but I used to really like Gamespot, but it seems to me that Gamespot really dislikes PS3, who knows, some of you probably disagree but I know others do agree, because Gamespot used to rock before the biased reviews started pouring in, they really like 360 but every multiplatform game gets worse reviews on ps3 then on 360, it doesnt make much sense to me, and Uncharted got an 8, UT3 got 8.5? This is nuts!codalloo
Dude, youd be the first person ive seen read a review on gs in 9months.

i own a xbox 360 and a ps3. im getting a wii when brawl comes. i dont know what kinda logic you used to figure that i have only 1 console but dont ever use that logic again. ukillwegrill said that "almost all ps3 games suck" and that sounded like a troll. i just call em how i see em.
