.....ever since god of war : chains of Olympus got a 8.5 on this site cause of aaron thomas :roll: ......ive been thinking what score they will give MGS4.....thats why i was think that i would leave GS forever before the MGS4 comes out good score or bad....i mean god of war : chains of Olympus was on a handheld for christ sake. Idk what to expect for MGS4.....gamespot hates sony...thats all i no. outbreak201

Why are you letting reviews/reviewers block your judgement? I'm tired of hearing about reviews/reviewers from this site and how they act towards sony. Grow up! If you had a mind of your own it wouldn't matter what any site gave this game or any other.

I don't understand why so many people are hung up on the ratings. If you think a game is going to be good or great then get it and play it for yourself. A 8 or a 8.5 isn't a bad rating from a scale from 1 to 10 so I don't know people get upset. Get what you like and what you want no matter what the score is. Good Grief!!!

Gamers Game...Fanboys worry about the rating system.

I gotta agree with you.

Closely after MGS4 review there will be a wave of bans and suspensions.

Everyone will go :

I don't understand why yall are complaining. you can finish the game in just 4 hours. With games like GTA for the psp, which lastest 20-30 hours, there's no reason why god of war would get anymore than 8.5. Replay value is a major determinator in a games score, unfortunately, this game doesn't offer much in that category.

Sorry to break to you guys.

I am 100% sure that GameSpot is going to rate MGS4 a 9.0. only because they know that that PS3 fanboys are gonna go crazy if they don't.realSHOTKILL
I agree with that part... MGS is going to rate great even if they only found a slideshow inside the disk...

GS is trully biased (actually, any game reviewer is), and there are examples for better (FFXII, K&L) reviews and for worst (R&C). In the case of MGS, it could work for better, as I knew it is going to get over 9 since the moment they announced it... It is that predictable (and it does not depends on the quality of the game at all)

Want to see some objective ranking (not review)? Go to gameranking or metacritic...

Both unchartered and ratchet and clank we're ranked correctly.. Does either game have online? It took me less then 6 hours to bet uncharted. No online, no replay value, gun physics were blann.... So my question to you is, what are you getting so upset?? COD 4 is by far one of the best games, yes it's single player is short, but if you play on a harder difficutly it wil last a long time but the biggest bonus for that game is it's online component.

I think somebody needs to hand you all a tissue, you wine like little girly mans.... lol

So basically what you're telling us is that any game that doesn't have long lasting multiplayer is not worth?

I have a hard time believing you finished Uncharted in six hours since I have a friend who extremely rushed through it and couldn't do it in less then 8 hours.

My first run was clocked at 11 hours and second time at 10 on default difficulty. The game doesn't need a multiplayer, not all games do.

I'll take a great story driven single player game over multiplayer any time of the day.

The question to you is why would you pay any money to watch movie, to rent movie, to buy tv and watch tv, to read book?

Do they have replay value? Nope. Do most poeple watch them? Yes. Do they watch their favorite shows or read their favorite books again and again? Yes.

So why you, who fails to appreciate great QUALITY works, who only likes random, mindless killing, who can only value repetitively gaming non-sense online, think you are better than others.

Why would you, who can only put value on quantity appreciate a good story, a good game at all? Call other poeple girly mans? Look who's the only couple of poeple who's crowling here to try get some attention?

by the way, if you dare to play uncharted in crushing difficulty, it might take you forever to beat it. But lenth and repetition isn't value, but I guess you will never understand that.

I agree, and Ratchet & Clank was one of the single player games with most replay value I have seen (I only have a few games worth replaying in this last couple of generations), mostly because of the skill points and unlockable content.

If you have to play COD4 in Hard, You have to play Uncharted in Crushing mode from the beginning. I'm sure that you wouldn't beat the 1st level that easily like you say you did.

Rather a game need online or not depends on the game. Comparing COD 4 to Uncharted and Ratchet and Clank is stupid to say the least. COD 4 is built to be a multiplayer experience, which is not the case with Uncharted and Ratchet and Clank. Both games are story driven and are built from the ground up to be a single player experience and Naughty Dog and Insomniac did one hell of a job.

And like you said, COD 4 is short, but when being played on a harder difficulty will last you a long time. The same can be said with Uncharted and Ratchet and Clank and heck it can be said with any games.

Would you want to play a game that is built for single player to include a crappy multiplayer mode? I certainly don't. People seem to be confuse with the fact that ALL game needs to have some kind of multiplayer mode to be successful, which is not the case. Yes, adding multiplayer adds more value to the game, but if a game isn't built to be a multiplayer experience then I don't want the developer to add a crappy multiplayer mode into the game, which will only devalue the game. I'd take a story driven game over online multiplayer anyday.

I've finished Uncharted in exactly 7 hours and I didn't rushed through. Played it on hard but there's enough to play the game again. And for me multiplayer is the last point I look at when I want to buy a game. I can only play games on the weekend and playing the same maps all the day is kind of boring like TF2 ... every **** game is on 2 Forts :/

Who cares what it gets here? I'm sure all of us are buying the game anyway. I don't need GS to validate my purchase of the game.

That's what IGN is for :)

IDK. But I truely believe that MGS4 will be AAA at GS. I could be wrong, but I would put money on it. Please note that I've lost money before when betting.

Here is a question for you... Do you think a low score (which I could bet you it won't be lower than 8, at the very least) in GS will turn down people that were waiting from buying this game?

Don't think so...

Gamespot has no credibility anyways. They try to be the "oh-so sophisticated tough critic" yet it just evens out to them having absolutely horrid written reviews and idiots like Aaron Thomas. Jeff G, Greg Kasavin, Alex Navarro, Ryan Davis...all gone...why are we still here, again?

Gamespot reviews are contingent on the sum of money that the publisher pays them.akatsuki0wn3d

Which is why nobody should take this place seriously. I don't know why people care so much about what Gamespot says anyways.

It'll probably get no more than a 8.5. Maybe even a 7.0 because it's on the PS3 and most Gamespot reviewers don't like the PS3 very much. But who cares, it's somebody elses opinion. There are barley any Gamespot reviews I agree with, but I still read them sometimes to get information on the game, not the guy's opinion. I ususally just watch the Gametrailers review though, since they focus more on the game than their own opinion.

Gamespot will score MGS4 a 9.0 or above. I doubt they want to go through cow hate mail at them or cow suicide. Plus honestly if gamespot scores MGS4 lower than a 9.0 than I might consider that Gamespot is biased. Cause I'm pretty sure MGS4 is gonna be EPIC! It has to be for Blu-ray disc not having enough space.

its all about the user reviews. the GS crew are merely human gamers just like us. if the user base gives an average of 9.5 with at least 100 votes then the game is worth buying. at least thats how i based my game collection on and i never had problems with my theory. IMO, just listen to what users think and base ure playfactor from that. a single gamespot editor or watever cant judge for everyone. we're entitled to our own opinions.

3 to 1 over the 60 as of now in Euro. Something like 10 to 1 over the 60 in the East. Even in the US. Only thing I would be worried about is. How big of a blowout will it be after MGS4,and FF and GoW 3, Infamous, Killzone 2, Little Big, Home, Resistance 2, Haze, Ico project, Afrika, and many more. What will the ratios be? If its a solid game fine. As so with the other 20 or so heavy hitters out in the next 12 months.

Since they round their ratings to the nearest multiple of 0.5 now i say it will get either 8.0 or 8.5. Either way, i will get it...and so will a ton of other PS3 owners...it's as simple as that.

I find it hard to believe that one site can provoke that much fear for videogamers. This site is going to give MGS4 above an 8.5. This site or reviewers on this site might be biased against the ps3 but they have never given an MGS game a really bad score. Either way MGS4 is going to be a solid game. As far as this game goes it pretty safe to say that the MGS games over the years are almost light years so to speak ahead of the competition when compared to other action/adventure games released around the same time.

When I look back at MGS2 it was a good 3 to 4 years ahead in videogame technology compared to the other games. Just compare MGS2 with splinter cell and you will realize just how good MGS is. MGS2 came out a whole year before splinter cell did and look at how much better MGS2 is compared to it. I would say MGS2 is several years more advanced than splinter cell.

We're going to have our hands full when MGS4 comes out and it gets a score lower than a 9.
