Yeah, don't agree with that. Both UC3 and GeoW3 are better than MW3, but I digress, time to get back to Skyrim. :oops:

No. No they are not. That isn't even a quote. The review is professional, the review is well written and the reviewers critisms are legitimate as part of their opinion. Giant Bomb had a lovely piece about people such are yourself complaining about well written critical perspectives and reviews. skrat_01


my strongest area has always been writing (which is an area I hope to possibly seek a career in upon finishing college). i could sit down and write the most ornate, witty, polished critical review of any game, assume any initial bias regarding it, make seemingly eloquent complaints about it, and make it sound well thought out and sensible.

It isnt hard to hide bias and a lack objectivity within the diction of a fancy essay, and that is what I see Eurogamer doing. Personally I dont care if its "written well" because that is all just fluff. I dont stop to consider the aesthetic appeal of a review. when I read a review I cut straight to their point and the connotations of what their critique is.

if you just look at it at face value its easy to think

"look how charming and articulate the review is. how could it possibly be unprofessional? plus it agrees with me"


Again. Everything that's wrong about gaming.skrat_01


well.... right back at you,man

I don't really follow Eurogamer's review...... their opinion are way too "Old World" ... just like watching some british sitcoms.. (sometimes works sometimes don't)....... sorry.... just being honest

Fully agree. arbitor is the one who isn't objective.OB-47

you know, there isnt a forum rule requiring you to suck up to every single person in the thread that agrees with you

Eh it's my internet. I wasn't posting it properly

EDIT: also it's not a rule to hate every single review that actually criticises games that you love

Well, CoD always gets great reviews. I personally think they are mostly un earned, but that's just me.

If anyone actually expected anything but high scores and praise for MW3 I'm not sure why. It's just going to be that way. I'm not sure why people continue to care, because - Either there's money involved, or Critics simply look at CoD like the transformers movies, not holding any standards for them other than a few mindless hours of enjoyment.

It's a bit of both. Activision sends reviewers to resorts for CoD launch party's, I know they did it this time and for Black ops, probably something similar for MW2.

The difference is movie critics hate the transformers movies.

Good job, I am honestly tired of taking MW haters seriously. I am not an avid cod fanboy but it is a good game.

But but different reviewers different taste.

This is why i say reviewers are a joke this days,they are not objective and pretty much their review is based on taste rather than merits,so Uncharted is linear but some how MW3 is not.

Don't like MW3's score? Complain in the sticky.
