Since when 9.5 < 9.0


How could Gamespot so impetuously put Demon's Souls ahead of Dragon's Age: Origins?

PC is not a platform? :(

Disgrace...

The score is given by an individual reviewer, while the editorial board decides on the overall best game.

1. Scores don't mean squat in determining which game wins which award. 8.4 GOTY to Everquest is proof enough.

2. Group opinion > individual opinion

3. DS is just as deserving of the award as DAO and this isn't the first place DS has won RPGOTY.

That is what's puzzling to me as well. I've played and beaten both, and I can say that DAO is easily better than Demon's Soul's. But just remember that this is the same site that said MGS4 had better graphics than Crysis: Warhead.

This was already "consolespot am confirmed" when MGS4 won graphics award in 2008. But that wasn't enough; this year, they decided to take it up a notch, and not even let users vote for PC games.

I agree they seem to have gone PS3 crazy and yet there are so many better games out there that they have missed out of there list. Guess they need to please there fanbase.

gametrailers also gave rpg of the year to DS. so its not only GS. theres no way a turnbased boring sleeping pill of an rpg can beat a action rpg.

Cool story bro. I'm sticking by DAO being better. I've played and beaten both, and it's plain to me which one is the better game. I'm still playing DAO, DS' has already been returned. One will come out being more critically acclaimed, and that will be DAO.

He's saying it; obviously it's his opinion. "IMO" is the most useless thing to put in a post.

Both of those combine all the reviews of different websites. For award its only gamestop PEOPLE. Nice try though.

Why wouldn't you count a version that plays the best, hence making it the better game....you know like the PC version?

Do you honestly expect people to take you seriously after what you said? Dragon Age? A turn-based RPG? I know you hate everything that's not a PS3 exclusive, but come on...

But if a game is being nominated then all of those versions have to count the developers made a way for each platform.

There was also a spelling mistake :P Yeah I know that, I just feel that when someone says "is easily better than" without a "IMO" sounds as if he's imposing his opinion on others as well. Maybe I'm just overreacting...Yeah I probably am :?

Disagree completely. Many posters actually believe that what they prefer is "right", when it only applies to themselves. IMO is needed at times in a written discussion where face and body language can't be read, IMO.

Even if I hooked my PC up to the same tv as my PS3, MGS4 on my PS3 looks better than any pc game on my pc.

Didn't DAO have a mean score of 9.0? last I checked 9.0 = 9.0. Lol, using one person's score to determine the best of a genre.

I dunno. I just got DOA for my PC yesterday and I have yet to see anything that makes me like it more than DS.

BTW After playing DOA on both the PS3 and PC I can't believe how bad it is on the PS3. Its like they arent even the same game. One running at 20 fps and the other 60 fps. I just wish they had DS on the PC.
