say what you will about GS's reviews, they are easily THE most respected game critics on the web. and even though there is a not-so-subtle XBOX bias surrounding this website right now, their Sony exclusive games reviews have been on the spot, or at least the scoreshave been pretty much the same as the critic average (aside from R&C which got a totally F-ed up review, Warhawk, heavenly Sword and Lair have all gotten scores that reflect the general critic consensus.)

I would say a 9.0 unless of course, Jeff Gerstmann reviews it. He would probably bring it down to 8.5, but this game is certainly not an 8.0.

what do you guys think?

It seems of late that games for the PS3 can do nothing right. I bet they give it no higher then a 8.

GS the most respected? LMAO!

I bet you did not know about the hidden modifer? pretty much it sums up to this.

game score for public = actualy score * publicity * [Make it less obvious factor * ( EA Pays ME^2 + exp[MS pays ME]+ wii-tarded - (PS3)! ].

7.5 - For the GS average for PS3 first-party title;

8.0 - For a lucky moment ...

8.5 or above - For a miracle ...

I still say 7.0. Heres the thing I noticed. The gunplay is great and fun. But the hit points seem not perfect, because the blood comes from one area. I think this is so it can have a younger rating or something? So you dont see head blood. But key is the gunplay works great, with the duck and roll out and over and stuff. And its cool as heck. And plus its not a shooter. But gamespot will jump all over these things.

In basic it would be the same as giving Falo a bad score, because its jump mechanics are not up to par with this game. Even thow that has nothing to do with the game. After seeing how they do it for a while now. I can write one of their reviews and give any game a 7.0.

Falo was to short single player, and did not have enough story strength. And its mechanics are good, but did not work well in some areas where having to jump. Its graphics were good, but not up to par with the CoD's of this Gen. 7.5 right their. Thats how you make it bad. Now to make it good, you just cover that with. Its looks almost as good as anything out their to this point. The gameplay you use in the game most, works well. And some stupid stuff about making the fans happy. And talking about the online so much that you have to give it a 9.

I would go into more detail about how you can change things up via simple wording. But will get to that latter :P

It will be 9.0+ on gamerankings I think, but here on gamespot, Nothing higher than 8.5, most likely in the 7's, as system wars has it hyped as a AA game.

Of course, thats really only if a certain (I feel hes incompetent) writer reviews it. I won't name names, but his name is aaron thomas (not capitalized for a reason).

Anyway, so yeah, It all depends on who writes the review. If it's one of gamespots more competent writers, we might see a justifyable score. Possibly even a 9.0. But to expect anything higher than 9.0 from gamespot for this game is like expecting Assassin's Creed to get a 10. lol.

I'm pretty sure Gamespot will find enough things to dock off Uncharted's score to give it a 7.5-8.0. To ask for a 9.0 on a PS3 exclusive is like asking a cop for a bite of his donut.

It wont be lower than an 8.5. It should be a 9.0 or 9.5, the game is amazing. I couldn't believe the water effects they added in, the physics of water movement is extremely difficult to relicate. Also, it was a nice touch that drake's clothes were wet after I too him swiming.

Playing the demo doe's not give somebody the knowledge to review the final game.

And if gamespot give's it an 8.5 allot of people will make threads about how it's un-fair and the game deserves a 9.0+ because they played the demo.

People should not review final games based on a demo, just preview the demo and give your thought's.

People are setting thereself's up now to be upset at gamespot by saying the game should get a 9.0+ when they have only played 20-30 mins of a 8-10 hour game.

When gamespot review these games before release nobody that has not played the game in full has the right to argue with that score because the reviewer played the full game and you didnt.

well on demos alone.. the bioshoke demo was the best demo i ever played, until i played the uncharted demo. and bioshoke had no online and was a FPS with some cool ideas. I think what naughty dog did with Uncharted is way more note worthy than Bioshock.

i think bioshock got a 9.5. I say uncharted deserves 9.0 or better. but will probably get an 8.5 from GS.

Honestly after the R&C got blasted.....this game doesn't have a chance. It actually was pretty fun but if you are looking for respect from this website I honestly don't think it's possible. If Aaron reviews it do you honestly think he is going to give it AA or AAA?

Shady is pretty accurate with his statement. There is no need to set yourself up for disappointments. A demo is still a demo, it gives you a good view how the game is but it is not 100% a hole story.

After all, you will spend 60$ on a game you enjoy right? not because someone gave it different score.

Then honestly.....what happened to the R&C review then? You think people don't have a right to be a little skeptical after that review? Honestly I didn't think they was a bias on this website UNTIL I saw that score. It was completely different than almost all websites. Maybe this was just one mans opinion however it reflects on the entire website when they give a score like that to a game that was obviously much better. Giving Metriod 8.5 is nothing compared what they did to that title. When you have Lems kind of in shock at the same time (due to everyone else giving it AAA) you something is a little off.

If GS gives it an8 or higher, I'll definitely be surprised. Even though, every other gaming site and their mothers will give this one 9+ and rightfully so.

8/8.5 from GS. Destiny of SONY's 1st party PS3 titles @ this site. And with some more humor and amusement, a 7.5. Come on GS, let Aaron Thomas do this review.

I think it will be 8.5-9.5. What is there to complain about except for no online but this is not an online game. I feel like it is a 9.5 right now from the demo.

But personally the question is what is going to be considered the down side to the game?

i beg to differ in the "THE most respected game critics" comment, IGN would probably fit that statement better.

Anyway, most sites will give it a score in the low 9s out of 10. Ign will probably give it a 9.3 or 9.4. Gamespot will probably score it an 8-8.5 to look more "critical" ;). Oh and there will be a hand ful of dumb icons in the gamespot review and no one will understand what they mean.

Based on what I've seen, I'd say it's a 9.0-9.5. Take off the PS3 penalty, and that puts it at a 8.0-8.5 on GS. Or a 7.0-7.5, depending on the reviewer. It will get docked for being too short and for trying to be too much (come on, is it a shooter, a platformer, a driving game? It should just pick one!). If the score is still too high, they will take points off for making them enjoy playing a ps3 game against their will.

watch out GS might be after you for knowing then so well!
