DDR has never gotten stellar scores. But, 3 is bad, even for DDR.

Like i can understand maybe giving a game a huge boost maybe they enjoyed it, but not more than 2 points compared to others, and this is 5 points. thats a crap load of a difference. But damn and people said Gspot sucked for reviews

LOL. True. DDRU is one of the best games I have -ever- played. It's so much fun. They can give it a 0 for all I care, they've already shown they're useless as a review site.

Bully is fkn great. DDR is fkn garbage.

Actually you could say that Bully is amazing, and DDR is not that great, but it surely doesnt' deserve a 3. 3 is for games like Bomberman Act Zero, or i dunno something really just utter crap.

Just read the review, and I quote:

DDR Universe is the gaming equivalent of an alien fetus belching out "The Star-Spangled Banner" -- a disaster of a title that digests any good DDR has given us into one of its many stomachs, producing something so foul that it could power Earth for centuries. Newcomers to the Revolution could do better and cheaper with a PlayStation 2, while those who've already danced around the block a few times should know better than to cross paths with Universe.

This is after they stated that the game had slowdowns (I haven't noticed that yet) and that all the songs are so generic you can't tell one from the another (absolutely false). Even if those two statements were true beyond any doubt, they fail to give any further reasoning as to why the game gets a 3.

Which ones of you have played it?

DDR is a 3 in my book, because it offers nothing new. It's been in arcades and consoles, and it's new game is just a rehash. Who cares what a reviewer gave it. He is allowed to score it a 3 if he felt it was not very good.

They give trash like Gears of War a 10 (when it deserves an 7/8 at best. Just shows how they cannot rate or review games.

I really enjoyed Bully A LOT. I don't know if should've gotten a 10, but it is one of my favorite games on the PS2. DDR usually scores in the 6-7 range. So, 3 is kind of bad for DDR like I said before.

I know, I know. I'm not saying Bully is a bad game. It was great as you say, but not worthy of the 10.

1UP and on the same coin EGM, their reviews at times seem like they just pick them out of hats. They tend to be that random and weird at times compared to so many others.

Exactly. There is no such thing as perfect, close to it but there is always room for improvement when you look at something objectively (being completely bias toward something is a different thing). Unless we are talking about deities here but that's a whole other topic that no one really wants to get into.

Yeah, you're right. But for me. when Jeff G. reviews a game, I usually always agree with him. I'm not being biased or anything but he represents his media outlet well in my opinion, and everyone has their favorite political pundits and cable news personalities. You just trust certain opinions more than others.

Jeff G lately to me is hillarious. i think what he does is he lurks at SW, keeps tabs on a game's hype, and intentionally goes against it. :lol: he always confuses everyone, which i find hilarious, and i'm tracking him because of it. :)

I like Jeff, he is the only good thing left in GS besides Ryan and Alex. I lean toward IGN for my opinions, they gave DDRU a 8.7/10 :D
