There are always a couple of brave ones who try to stick out from the crowd by giving a game a lower score then the rest.

Eurogamer need to stop hanging on to bill gates wallet. All good we all know this is a full of crap score. Game is still going to go down as one the greatest in history. And these guys did this for 2 reasons, for hits on there sh!tty site and they got paid. How does MGS4 get all these high ratings then this sorry game site downplays it. Screw these dudes.

lol I think Eurogamer just rates everything lower than every other site to gain hits. 8/10 is still good though, especially for them.

P.S. Anyone know any games they've rated 9 or 10?

That's a great score from Eurogamer.

Eurogamer are the Yahtzee's of video game journalism. They gave Gears an 8, WoW an 8, Halo 1 an 8 and other games that got AAA here got A or AA at Eurogamer.

Hell, if even eurogamer commented on how downright awesome it is, we have nothing to fear.

Eurogamer is as stuffy as they come, look at their previous reviews, they rarely give anything a worthy score.

nice to have a site try to keep scores down.

I also think no game should get a 10 "perfect".

On a completely different note, I really don't like that reviewer. He should stick too MMOs, seems to be his type of game.

They said what I've said all along. It's just more of the same, which isn't a bad thing. If you enjoyed the last 3 games, you'll like this one. If you didn't, then this game won't convert you.

1 step at a time my friend, is the way too recover from blind fanboyism.

im glad to see progress is being made though, congrats.

It's a fairly legitimate review anyway, reading through it.

Your the one that is looking dumb, MGS4 is still AAA if u look at all the reviews. And ill do u one favor like all u did with gampro. Yeah eurogamer is biased against the ps3 so there reviews dont count, lol. See what I did there. :P Besides this is my proof these guys are 360 fanboys.

Halo 3 a 10/10 It is eurogamer so they would ofcourse give HALO 3 a good score

They are MS loyals and we all know that

I own a 360 and know that halo 3 aint even that great of a game. Nuff said. :)

They also gave Mario Kart: Double Dash a 9 too. :D There's no point cherry picking though, Eurogamer are usually very critical relative to other mainstream gaming outlets.

No.

"Then there are those - this reviewer included - for whom Metal Gear Solid is a love it and hate it proposition. Flawed, intractable, unspeakably tedious at times, and yet blessed with incredible production values, imaginative design, and a brilliant, brave willingness to think and do the unexpected and impossible. At times they're barely videogames at all, but they're capable of moments of pure videogame genius, joy and shock that few other series can match."

I'm still surprised that they gave GTA4 a 10. I thought for sure they would gave MGS4 at least a 9 as well.

Eurogamer is as stuffy as they come, look at their previous reviews, they rarely give anything a worthy score.

SwiftDragon616

They have no credability man, they gave it to some1 who doesnt even like mgs games, he even said it in the begining of his sentence it is a love or hate game. He obviously isnt an MGS fan, hes more like one of these MGS4 bashers in this thread giving the review. Besides that they gave halo 3 a 10/10. That already blew there credability because that game had nothing going for it besides great multiplayer.

Most people in this thread skipped to the last page of the review, read the summary and acted like they read it.

Forge. Saved Films. Better graphics. Better campaign. Better Multiplayer. New vehicles. New Weapons. 4 player coop. What else could Halo 3 have done?

Agreed. Even as an avid Halo fan, H3 doesn't come close to deserving a 10.

"Gears of War 2" is going to eradicate "Halo 3". :)

In passing, no game deserves a "10".

They have no credability man, they gave it to some1 who doesnt even like mgs games, he even said it in the begining of his sentence it is a love or hate game. He obviously isnt an MGS fan, hes more like one of these MGS4 bashers in this thread giving the review. Besides that they gave halo 3 a 10/10. That already blew there credability because that game had nothing going for it besides great multiplayer.

Forge. Saved Films. Better graphics. Better campaign. New vehicles. New Weapons. What else could Halo have done?

"Gears of War 2" is going to eradicate "Halo 3". :)

In passing, no game deserves a "10".

Halo 3 has been Eradicated for quite some time now actually...
