I think there's a possibility that Uncharted 3 could get a 10, but a 9.5 is a lot more realistic.
This topic is locked from further discussion.
who cares when you look back the games that really deserve a 10 like GTA3, Halo CE, etc dont get it
the real classics that deserve a 10 dont get em on GS
I highly doubt it.
Skyward Sword just straight up won't get one here, no matter how good it is (it could be the greatest game ever made and it wouldn't score a 10 here).
Uncharted 3 won't get one.
Gears 3 won't get one.
Dark Souls will probably score worse than Demon's Souls did.
Skyrim will be unplayable without mods, so it won't get a 10. it will score well here, however.
It's the end of the generation, folks, which means that GameSpot's expectations have suddenly become impossibly high. The best we can hope to see are some AAA scores, but there will be many, many more flops. Anyone who hypes anything AAA here right now is out of their damn mind.
You consider 300 hours of gameplay unplayable?I highly doubt it.

Skyward Sword is the only game that it could get one, and i don't see GS giving it anything more than a 9.0, so in other words, nop, i don't think an game this year will get a 10
Well, to be fair, Soul Calibur and Super Mario Galaxy 2, and Ocarina of Time deserved 10s, and they got them.who cares when you look back the games that really deserve a 10 like GTA3, Halo CE, etc dont get it

You consider 300 hours of gameplay unplayable? I consider any Elder Scrolls games without mods unplayable. The community has always had to fix TES titles.[QUOTE="DarkLink77"]

Uncharted 3 will.

There is no chance in hell of that happening. If anything, it will score worse than Uncharted 2.
No uncharted 3 will not score a 10 uncharted 3 will flop just like i predicted infamous 2 flop, but i'm not saying it will be a bad game just won't meet its hype which is AAAE.TheGuardian03Yea I don't see UC3 scoring as high as UC2. It just wasn't THAT impressive.
I hope to god not since no game deservesa 10.

Then, what's the point of having a 10 based score system :?

agreed with everything you just said
10 doesn't mean perfect. Anyways, TC, if the Last Guardian came out this year, I would have said yes. But since it isn't, I'll say no but BF3, Skyrim, and Dark Souls will come close.I hope to god not since no game deservesa 10.

a 10 is basicaly just the michael jordan of video games, or wayne gretzky of video games. there is some games that deserve a teni think skyrim has an incredibly good chance of getting a 10, unortunately knowing bethesda... it'll be bug/glitch infested at release >.< and it will get 9.0 9.5,
They've been working on fixing the games bugs for several months already. And actual game has been done for awhile. They learned from their past games.i think skyrim has an incredibly good chance of getting a 10, unortunately knowing bethesda... it'll be bug/glitch infested at release >.< and it will get 9.0 9.5,

Of course it will score 10...Bigger, Badder, Better SP...15hrs lenght...Co-op...MP its got the whole package...The story looks darker this game will be ten times better then U2...this is ND were talking about DONT underestimate them. ND dont do flops only good games FACT!If Skyrim doesn't get a 10 I would be shocked. That game simply looks epic.KC_HokieI wouldn't be shocked if it didn't. If Oblivion is any indication, quests will be pretty hit or miss in terms of quality. For example, I found Oblivion's the main quest to be pretty bad, while some of the guild quests to be pretty good. The enemy encounters were pretty ho-hum as well as you fight fairly standard mobs all game long.

[QUOTE="WilliamRLBaker"]10 doesn't mean perfection. Just that a game is hall of fame/top games of all time worthy.I hope to god not since no game deservesa 10.

Simply put thats a lame excuse that it doesn't mean perfection that Review sites tried to put forward to forstall people from calling them out on it.
Even on gamespot at one time the moniker below 10 was....PERFECT.
1-10 Obviously 10 means the zentih, the most therefor it means perfect saying but it doesn't mean perfect means nothing cause it does mean perfect when a game gets 10 it means perfection and thats flawed.
There is no point to a 10 system and pefect monikers Gamespot should have started out with a 1-5 stars and never used perfect monikers like they used too because it ruined the whole system.
[QUOTE="WilliamRLBaker"]a 10 is basicaly just the michael jordan of video games, or wayne gretzky of video games. there is some games that deserve a ten Micheal jordan and Wayne Gretzky lost games in their careers so....they weren't perfect.I hope to god not since no game deservesa 10.

If you ever received a 100% on a paper you wrote in school, did you take it to mean it was perfect and impossible to improve upon? I'd certainly hope not. Most of the time when reviewers give out tens they'll even state in the review 'this doesn't mean the game is perfect'. A ten means that a game is head and shoulders above the rest of the games released at that time, at least in the reviewer's opinion.[QUOTE="TH1Sx1SxSPARTA"][QUOTE="WilliamRLBaker"]

I don't believe any 10s will be handed out this year, mostlybecausemany of the high profile games are sequels and there is a lack of innovation.But there should be a good amount of games scoringthe"superb" rating and we may see multiple 9.5s (games which are pretty damn close to perfect). So far this year hasn't been all thatoutstanding.
Mario would put Link to shame this generation if Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword does not get a 10 from GameSpot.
Sorry but gamespot reviewers only give tens to select franchises. A game could be a millions time bettter the smg2 gta4 and mgs4 and theyd still only give it a 9.5

Huh! That's not true. SMG2 wouldn't have gotten a ten if it wasn't able to destroy every single 3D platformer in quality and set a new standard for the genre.
Uncharted 3 won't go higher than a niner. The only candidate is Skyrim imo. The thing that could kill the score are bugs since it's a big open world.
Yea this year has been pretty floptastic but a strong year either way. Theres no way SS will get a 10 no matter how much I would want it too. GS has become the new "edge" reviewer in which they wait until last second and give a shocking review in order to boost traffic.
I think the underdog game, Batman:AC has a big chance for a 10 since it can surprise. I also think Skyrim has a chance as well because the reception that game got was unbelievable..
Uncharted 3 won't go higher than a niner. The only candidate is Skyrim imo. The thing that could kill the score is bug since it's a big open world.LustForSoulNah, UC3 will score a 9 -9.5
Skyrim will be close, but probrably be too buggy to get the 10.
BF3 won't , even though it looks epic.
GeoW3 sure as heck won't, and this is coming from someone who's hyping the third.
Dark Souls will be meh at best.
Zelda : SS could suprise us, but that's unlikely.
