360 GEOW>>>>>PC GEOW????

With only 8 players in each game, it would be a waste of money to have dedicated servers. Any machine can run a smooth game with only 8 players max.Wasdie

Dedicated servers have advantages other than higher performance. The primary one being that it provides a static location to which a gametype community can return on a consistent basis. Also, good luck getting server package redirects to work with a listen server. The modding community is going to be abysmal without automatic map distribution via redirects.

its a year later... FPS on PC actually have a higher standard because of the other awsome games on PC.

what are the best 360 FPS? halo3 and Geow? and you wonder why one got a 9.6 and 9.5? theres not any competition on 360

Heli you can't be serious? Considering how Halo 2 with a higher score lost to Half Life 2 with a lower we all know that the higher PC standards exist.

Now as to why one is 9.6 and one is 9.0. Look at the new scoring system. There is no .1 intervels anymore but only .5's

Might as well take into consideration that the game came out much later. I mean RE4 Wii edition is the best version of RE4 yet it scored 9.1 and not 9.6

Gears is not an FPS...........Wow....

Gears of war isn't that good in the first place when compared to other shooters.jechtshot78

10 maps, 8 playerr online, 4 modes (3 of which are basicly the same), No death match, Glitchy maps, 8 hour single player with glitchy co op, no friends in ranked matches, and no stat tracking on customs is not what I would call better than most other shooters bro.

Try not to be naive. A year has passed, better games have been released, and standards have risen. The PC version is clearly better than the Xbox 360 one.-Tretiak

Bingo.

Standards improve over a year's time.

Just look at ANY site's RE4 score compared to their GC's RE4 score (even though it was more than a year, it still illustrates the point.) Not only did RE4 have much more content over the GC version it had by far superior controls.... however, standards have improved.

Standards.

Improve.

Over.

Time.

The new scoring system with .5 incriments almost (key word: ALMOST) completely depletes the standards. But, FYI, Pc DOES have higher standards, but for differing reasons than what most are thinking. The standards have not as much to do with the qualit, but more so with quantity. See, there are many more games coming out on PC every year. That is why PC games are rated more strictly.

actually it has to do with both quality and variety of shooters imo

actually read the review...they state rather clearly the PC version is the best one due to a lot of new content and far better graphics.cobrax25

Well, it is not strictly one or the other, but I think there is a much stronger pull reason-wise towards the quantity. eve though both come into play.

For example, lets just pretend that the 360 only gets two good FPS a year. They are rated high, because there are only two of them. But lets say the PC gets more. they are rated less, because there is a lot more of them. So quality and quantity play a role. Though I think quantity more so.

yeah, i could agree would the fact that number of quality titles are what matter as just quantity would never raise the standards of a system.

Troll/joke thread I think.BillGreen68

"We Rate Games According to the Current Standards of Their Platforms and Genres
Every gaming platform is different, especially in terms of its technical features. However, we believe high-quality gaming experiences are possible on all the gaming platforms that we cover. So we review games against the standards of their respective platforms by implicitly comparing them to other games on that same platform and, to a lesser extent, to other games in that genre. As a result, our ratings of games on different platforms are not intended to be directly compared to one another. However, relative comparisons do apply, so a game that scores poorly is a poor game by any standards, while a game that scores extremely high is an outstanding game by any standards. gamespot rating system"

THey say the PC version is better. Very clearly stated.

That is a pretty bold statement. Plenty of console games score low for dumb reasons.
