Cooool, good reading. I want to know how this game plays. Not bothered by score TBH, we all knew it was going to score high, I'm more interested in how it plays.

Not a 10?!?! Heretics!!

But seriously, that 18-30 hours and their comment about it not being grand has me a little worried. It will still be a great game no doubt, but thats one thing I didnt expect it to be knocked about.

I think they rushed it because bioware said up to 70-80 including side quests, main quest and exploring. They couldn't be that wrong.

Yeah I remember them saying it was about 50+ hours long, including all quests.

Halo3 and BioShock aside, I think this is the 360's biggest shot of GOTY. I simply cannot wait to sink my teeth into Mass Effect, even though I have about 20-odd games I still havent finished..

GS will probably count off a bit more for the shooting issues that GI mentions. This could turn into a surprise here at GS. Maybe another Bioshock, where it doesn't flop, but gets a 9.0, possibly decreasing stands in GOTY running?

Most of the lemmings would have to run to the hills, especially if Super Mario Galaxy gets AAA a week before. In other words? Chaos.

That's right, just look at Heavenly Sword, Lair and the inevitable Killzone 2.

I woudn't be surprised if it was still recognized as superb here. That's what happens to many flops, as long as they're not Lair.
