I so wonder what reyes360 is gonna say about this....

probably something about it flopping because it didnt get AAAA.

Although I personally believe Crysis will meet it's hype, I think you should be pretty cautious with Gamespot's reviews. They arent afraid to be the odd man out nor are they afraid of flopping games.

PC Gamer used to be the best gaming magazine on the planet, but nowadays it's a complete joke. It lost all of it's best writers long ago. The head writer these days is the guy that used to review the hardware. I don't think PC Gamer has any credit these days.

If true, this would be the highest rating PC Gamer has ever given out. No small feat.

I don't doubt it though, the demo is stellar.

Tie for the highest actually. HL2 got a 98... assuming this is from the US mag... :/ It is certainly possible it is the holiday issue, but once agian, that isn't due out to subscribers for another 3 weeks let alone store shelves for over a month... :/

Did PC gamer review it on a $5,000 PC. :lol: Even then if they played it in DX10 on very high settings they got less than 30fps I bet. :lol:

PS3_3DO

$5000 :lol: :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol: :lol: :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

you haven't heard of the 8800gt have you? $200 and 30fps maxed out in dx10@1600x1200 (more than you presious halo could ever hope for)

Not suprising coming from you though as you know nothing about pc hardware

It is in the december edition PC gamer magazine and the only game that ever score a 98% from them was Half Life 2.

Crysis will be GOTY trust me.

Obviously not the US magazine seeing as the big review for the december issue was Hellgate London. Crysis won't be reviewed in the US PCG till the january issue :/

It's the Holiday Issue.

[QUOTE="Haee"]Your the biggest fakeboy I ever saw. You previously said that Crysis sucked months ago.Cube_of_MooN

When was this?

Check my Xfire profile noob

I dont know..maybe this?Seems a bit strange that your suddenly praising Crysis like the coming of christ now.

That was a joke, I wanted to see reactions and comments.

I loved the Beta/DEMO can't wait for full game.

This was a joke too right?

and this too?

Wow... thatcan pretty much be summed up in one word...

Anyway, why does it mean GOTY if Crysis gets a 98/100 in a PC gaming magazine? I'd like to see a wider range of scores, in more than just a magazine dedicated to PC games.

Nothing is ever "GOTY Confirmed". But getting a 98% in PC Gamer is HUGE. They're are extremely tough on their reviews. The highest score they've ever given was a 98%, which was to HL2........

Have you ever read any of their reviews? Better than the crap GS can come up with. At least for PC games that is. It used to be all right when Greg K reviewed PC games. Now all we have is Jason Ocampo I believe.

Uhhh...yeah. That's why I said the magazine is crap compared to what it used to be. The magazine's writing is complete garbage these days. It used to be great.

Well, it's a long review and having given it a 98, you can imagine that they didn't say too many bad things about it. I will give you the opening paragraph, however:

"Cyrsis has ruined me. Let's call it the 'Cyrsis effect' - how am I supposed to go back to playing excruciatingly linear, stupid-AI-having, plastic looking, videogaming -y shooters, now that I've experienced the next evolution in PC gaming? In a perfect world, gamestores everywhere will open at midnight to host Halo-3 ****launch parties celebrating the release of Crysis on november 16th. Government will crawl to a stop; companies will report an unprecedented number of sick workers; exams will go untaken; fathers will ignore their daughters; and the nation's pizza delivery industry will experience its best day since the super bowl. Seriously, the game is THAT good."

And then there is this excerpt:

How can I hear about how Halo 3 "pwns all" from the un-cyrsis-ed and not want to rip my hair out in frustration? (and yes, I've played Halo 3 - and you, master chief, are no crysis)"

Meu2k7

Although I will be buying Crysis that paragraph makes me question the credebility of the magazine.

Same here. I'm sick of it. No game is GOTY confirmed. So just stop with this crap. Say GOTY Contender or Potential GOTY or something.

Hearing 'GOTY confitmed' for any game makes me cringe.

It honestly makes me want to punch that person in the face. Don't know why. Probably because it's extremely annoying and waaaay over used.
