[QUOTE="gamer620"][QUOTE="skrat_01"] Shouldn't matter if the multiplayer focus is there - looking at dedicated multiplayer games.nhh18

Didn't help Shadowrun and that actually had a pseudo single player bot component.

shadow run was a worse game.

No it really wasn't a bad game. It got poor reviews due to its lack of content. The game itself was fantastic.

He criticizedfour things that are making me not listen to the review.

-Set timers for reinsertion (unlike MW2)

-Non-regenerating health (unlike MW2)

-Friendly-fire (unlike MW2)

-No kill-cam (unlike MW2)

This is only for a small part of the review, but for that part, he is basically criticizing the game for not being MW2.

No, it was an 8, if you want a site to support your precious PS3, go to IGN, they rate too many PS3 exclusives high.

very true

????

Dont even give this fanboy any attention, not one cow said any of that.

if i saved every link from every cow that has overhyped something then i wouldn't have space left on my computer >_>, anyways with the thousands of cows how would you know if not one said it when many here did say it and even fanboys on youtube were saying it for igns videos

So I guess MAG won't be the revolutionary, groundbreaking game, the Halo killer it was hyped up to be then. Oh well, still decent.

what did u guys expected? its eurogamer they gave mgs4 an 8.vitonemesis
and so somehow that isn't right? Ok Im kiddding the game definitely is amazing but you can't make it like giving it AA is so much different than AAA when the game has MANY flaws many reviewers seem to overlook

Pretty good score, Im thinking 7.5 here

Idream2010
What!?!? A 7.0 from a Euro site for a PS3 game that was hyped? That's unheard of. It's usually a 9 or 10 from these guys, especially if it's exclusive. Anyway, most site have been giving it 7-8,5 scores.

Why not. I've played PC games all my life and the best pc multiplayer games were the ones that didn't have single player experiences. UT series, Quake seires, Battlefield 2, etc.nhh18
I'm pretty sure all three of those had singleplayer in one way or another. :P

MAG is for people who enjoy online games like Battlefield or Tribes etc. which is not for me if i would review that game well i would receive a lower score. I might give it a try

From a Euro site? This isn't just some Euro site. Eurogamer is considered the strictest and generally most accurate reviewer of games.

Every site believe that. Even Gamespot. From a Euro site? This isn't just some Euro site. Eurogamer is considered the strictest and generally most accurate reviewer of games.

You really can't use other scores to try and predict GS scores, they can vary like crazy and some sites are just MUCH too different. Game Informer gave Halo Wars a 9 while GS gave it a 6.5, on the other side of that spectrum GS gave Halo: ODST a 9 while Gaming Nexus gave it a 42, with a metacritic average of 83, only about 5 points away from MAG, the supposed failure. And while one might say ODST is an expansion and thus had to get leeway, MAG is an online only game, not single player no nothing for people who rate higher for gamesthat have it.

That said the GS score could be anything now, especially when ODST and Resistance 2 get a 9 and Ratchet and Clank: Tools of Destruction doesn't even break AA. I personally predict around an 8.0-8.5.
