[QUOTE="Dreams-Visions"]Gears of War 2 cometh. MarloStanfield

No guarantees my man

and it's hardly a big leape from the first gears (which was very overrated in my opinion)

[QUOTE="Dreams-Visions"][QUOTE="MarloStanfield"]

:lol: OMG Lemmings have no AAA exclusives this year, what the heck?

Wii has better exclusives this year, PS3 has better exclusive this year.

Zhengi

Imagine if that flopped too. Too much potential for lolzers :)

[QUOTE="CaseyWegner"][QUOTE="Juggernaut140"]

Yet watch them give Fallout 3 a 9.5 and call it the greatest RPG of all time :roll:

Screw Gamespot

Juggernaut140

oh. you've played fable 2 and fallout 3 to completion already? wow.

Wow what? You know it will happen just like it did with Oblivion :|

you're basing this on one example?

• Story and characters lack depth
• Good and evil paths don't seem well-balanced
• Lousy map.

A lot of these same things could be said about the first one.
[QUOTE="Toriko42"][QUOTE="nervmeister"]I think I may have to evacuate GS for a while. This is not gonna be pretty.white_sox

Was that the same problem they had with the first one? If so doesint bug me since I actually enjoyed the story and some of the characters.

I'm going to be enjoying my 2 flop games this month.

LBP and Fable 2.

I guess I buy alot of flop games... They really are good.

So IGN and GS are the only sources which gave the game less then AAA, where the other sites gave it AAA.

I think GS is losing their grip, read the review, and it sound AAA. But when they scored it, it's AA.

[QUOTE="Jigsaw9798"]

No people, it's not a flop, it's a Gamespot flop. It's like saying Mass Effect and Twilight Princess flopped because Gamespot gave them both a AA score.

CaseyWegner

hyped to be AAA at gamespot and were not AAA at gamespot. that = flop.

Yeah its a flop, but only the fanboys get hurt over it.

Edit: For some reason my reply was in Casey's post.....

[QUOTE="blazinpuertoroc"]if lems are all heart broken over this cheer up, im sure Socom confrontation will flopfistoflight

Miserably I might add.

Lmao bad damage control trying to use socom confrontation as a cover up for this flop. Still I am getting fable 2 so cheers :D, but seriously I think socom will be in the 7's and we don't even know what the hype for it is... I say A

1 great flop for the year of gaming. I wonder if Gears will Flop? Resistance2? Wii music? :shock:yoshi_64

Oh man cows are going to get so owned if resistnace 2 flops and gears doesn't Their battle cry remember fable 2 review week lol.

[QUOTE="Dreams-Visions"]So Fable 2 is the Mass Effect of 2008. Stevo_the_gamer

lolz @ 8.5 being a flop.

[QUOTE="virtuas"]

well, there goes the game of the year for FABLE 2. i hope ppl would stop comparing this game to the likes of LBP, MGS4 and soon R2 and GEars 2.

for a game that was hype to be the first AAAAE or a 9.5 game, it fails. 8.5 is not a bad score but with so much hype, you would think it will get a better score. this is a like a flop, flop just like liar, haze, and that other xbox game

Il_Exile_lI

GS does not equal god. This game will win plenty of GOTY awards, and it is getting AAA-AAAA all over the place.

it will be a contender but MGS4 or LBP owns 2008. maybe they can try again with FIBBLE 2

amnesia = check

i have amnesia?thats interesting consitering i remember you're posting record very well :roll:

[QUOTE="strudel420"]

AAAA?! :lol: No freakin way.

Im_single

Same thing was said about MGS4.

Im not saying Fable 2 will in any manner of speaking score a perfect 10, just pointing out that anything is possible, literally.

Haha I really don't care for reviews anyways. If i like what I see in a game and if I tried it before I am getting it if I think its great. Fable 2 will be in my hands in a week you can be sure of that :D

[QUOTE="NoobisMaxcimus"]Ahh im laughing at all these butthurt people. But dont worry lems, cows are gonna get owned with Socom and MotorStorm.epic_pets

Not really motorstorm will get AA

[QUOTE="Dreams-Visions"]Gears of War 2 cometh. MarloStanfield

No guarantees my man

and it's hardly a big leape from the first gears (which was very overrated in my opinion)

If anything is AAA on lock it's Gears 2.

saolin, whare are you!? :cry:lantus

Lost in the endless images of the forest.

I was really expecting this game to get a nine here. Oh well, still looks good.

A System Wars flop

Oh well cant wait for Friday

I can't believe they flopped their "game of the show." :o Regardless, it's still a great game and I hope all you 360-owners have fun with it. Fallout 3 will be getting my attention, however.espoac

No one is saying that a flopped game is bad. Just that it didn't meet the hype.

Very true, indeed.Stevo_the_gamer

You havent played Fable 2, and Mass Effect is terrible

saolin, whare are you!? :cry:lantus

GAMESPOT! LEAVE PETER MOLYNEUX ALONE! LEAVE HIM ALONE!

[QUOTE="Stevo_the_gamer"][QUOTE="Dreams-Visions"]So Fable 2 is the Mass Effect of 2008. Dreams-Visions

Likewise, lad. I'll be picking this up through Gamefly (And odds are, I won't get it for ages). :(

Ninja Flop

Lost Flop

Too Flop

Infinite Flop

...and now Fable Floped! :o The 360 is cursed!

Flippity Floppity Floop! :PTheGrat1

Edit: I called it.

I'm just saying that Gamespot is gong to overrate Fallout 3 just like they did with Oblivion yet they give Fable and Fable 2 less than what they actually deserve.

Dreams, what did you mean with Fallout 3?rockguy92

[QUOTE="CaseyWegner"]i still don't get why people use "flop" as a bash against a high scoring game. Ninja-Hippo

Because system wars has evolved in a manner whereby a flop has become a bad game. Just like at all the hate on Ninja Gaiden 2, despite it being a great game.

A flop should be a game that scores significantly lower than the hype. Not one increment.

Thats in a dream world buddy. Fact is this is SW and faboys rule it plain and simple. If the game score is off by .5 points its a flop. Even if the game is great thats just how things work here. Same thing happend to resistance and uncharted.
