[QUOTE="todd2r"]Wow, all over the board on this one. 9.5 IGN, 8.5 here. Who to believe? IGN and Gamespot have been been far apart on reviews lately. Tikeio

Gamespot doesn't like good games. They gave Ratchet & Clank: Future TOD a 7.5, but it got 9's everywhere else.

Well,not really everywhere else,otherwise it wouldn´t have an AA average on MC. :P

[QUOTE="nervmeister"]Wow. Damn. Looks like even Forza isn't immune to Flopspot.GiveMeSomething

"Even Forza"? lol. It was never THAT good.

Regardless of personal opinion, GS was practically in bed with it before.

Oh well, I dont like race games anyway. I played GT4 and it taught me a lot of stuff (since I didnt know anything about cars at all LOL). However, thats as far as my racing experience will ever go.

He said it's like Forza 3.5, a sense of deja vu for those who have played 3, but it improves on 3. It would be like 9.5 or 10.0 for me since I haven't played any Forza game or even GT5.

the bar was set when GT5 came out. how dare T10 releasing something with no weather. the fact that GT5 Spec 2.0 will be coming in a few days is just overkill.

While GT5 was too ambitious for its own good, Forza 4 was to little ambitious for its own good. Thankfully PD keeps supporting the game, I hope they keep supporting it like that for a long time.

wowsers very low score compared to most of the other sites currently on metacritic. perhaps the lack of nightime / weather effects hurt it. I wasn't planning on getting this until mid next year anyway, Rage, batman, skyrim & Halo CE, are the next games i am getting. I cannot wait for Skyrim.sts106mat
Now watch em flop Skyrim and Batman, lol.

More like it **** on itself with no mercy whatsoever. But hey, compare it to a year-old game if it makes you feel better.

But I wasn't commenting based on the GS review. All the "flop" comments here is because the game scored 8.5 on a gamespot review. That's kind funny.

And honestly, for me GT5 didn't flop exactly. But its worse than Both forza 3 and 4 by a long shot.

Forza and GT are both AA now, sweet, hopefully this may mean less game bashing and more game enjoying :)

Seems like while both GT5 and Forza 4 made improvements to their predecessors they each also suffer from a bit of de ja vu. GT5 for using some high res PS2 cars and tracks. Forza 4 for using a lot of the same cars and tracks from Forza 3. Despite that though both are great games for fans of the series.

How is 8.5 a flop? It sounds like he's saying its the best in the series but just hasn't moved on since the last enough? That one thing i'm never sure about it reviews, should you take into consideration the previous games? Say you've never played a Forza game before. Should you buy 3 over 4 because 3 scored higher? Its well worth mentioning in the review, but should it effect the score? This is still no where near the level of "flop" that GT5 had. I don't think anything will come close to that level of flop - not after that dev cycle.

AAE, oh that is just gold.

This should be amusing.

Uncharted will have a greater fallout though if/when it gets 8.5'd.

My ScarJo is ready.

This is a surprise. I just finished reading the Eurogamer review. They gave it a 9 and said some great thing about it. I was never into Forza, so this bothers me none. It's gonna be a fantastic racer for those who buy it. It's currently at 93 on Metacritic with 25 reviews. Impressive.

Not sure actually. Equal in flop magnitude, but I think the Uncharted fallout would be bigger since there's a greater PS3-360 rivalry.

In answer to your earlier question this is clearly the next big AAAE:

Best game ever!
