They look the same to me

Those screenshots look more than twice the size of a DS screen to me.
But you're already cherrypicking images, so it seems you just want to dislike the game.
I don't want to dislike the game.I have no interest in the game whatsoever.I was just proving a point that it looks the same as a game that was released in 1999 and doesn't deserve 9.5 for graphics.
I think if you actually take the time to watch the videos then you will see that it looks much better. It's in full 3D, characters, cars, buildings, everything. It also has realtime shadows on the characters and vehicles, and from what I have read even the buildings have proper shadows that move in realtime with the time of day. Even the angle pulls out the 3D even more.Just looking at gamerankings where the game is the highest rated handheld game out so far with the lowest score a 9. HarlockJCPeople are doing the same old cow/lemming graphics whore crap with if the graphics suck the game must = Fail :roll: They both were owned and are now damage controlling because DS gets an amazing GTA game.
AAAA at Eurogamer? Damn. Cherokee_JackMeh, they gave Fable 2 a 10/10, so this doesn't mean a whole hell of a lot to me.
[QUOTE="jethrovegas"][QUOTE="Cherokee_Jack"]AAAA at Eurogamer? Damn. HarlockJCMeh, they gave Fable 2 a 10/10, so this doesn't mean a whole hell of a lot to me. It was also GOTY for X-Play. So it seems many disagree with the idea it should not have been a 10. I think Joystiq had it as GOTY. After I beat it, traded it. I didn't really hate it, or like it. I was kind of indifferent. Maybe slightly disappointed.

Sessler is a confirmed jackass. I don't see how his misguided, possibly drug-induced opinion validates anything.
I mean really, the man can barely string a sentence together without bursting into some bizarre, imaginary speech-impediment rant tango, so I find it rather hard to believe that he has the ability to rationally evaluate a video game.

Sessler is a fantasic journalist, and he has been doing it for a decade. He has tons of fans, and his reviews are straight to the point. I agree with him many times, even if I don't want to.Those are some great scores. :)9.5

Same. Loved the main story, but it was too short. The side quests were meh.

I just find it funny how everytime a game scores good their are always people who say well they gave X game this score so this score for X game must be wrong. The fact is that a high score from Eurogamer is rare and it seems many agree other review sites agree with the score. Same case with Fable 2 many other review sites agreed with the score and gave it GOTY a high honor no matter what you think of a person. So maybe it's not the reviews who have the wrong opinion.[QUOTE="mmirza23"]I'm taking these reviews with a grain of salt. We all know what reviewers said about GTA 4 and the scores it received.angry_forkAgree. I also think this review is taking into account the huge amount of crap that's also on DS so it has lower standards. troll detected
[QUOTE="789shadow"][QUOTE="tarzanell"]GS delays generally are not a good sign.tarzanell
If that was the case,90% of games GS reviews would get lower scores.
That's right...they do.Oh,sorry,I didn't realize you were on the "GS is biased/crap" bandwagon.:roll:

These guys are one of the better handheld sources out there, IMO. They gave Chinatown Wars a 10/10; the only other DS game they gave the score to was Zelda.

Yeah,no.
Are you denying a good amount of games score lower here than most anywhere else? I don't think I'm the one living in la-la land, spud. On topic, the game is amazing. It doesn't feel like a cop-out, and nor does it feel gimmicky. Easily one of the best titles in the DS' library.Please Log In to post.
