I think they're satire, not sure. Not exactly serious though. Anyways, this game keeps surprising. Very good news.

It rates games on what it is compared to what it promised, instead of just what it actually is.

What do you mean no? I just confirmed it lol, it is destructoid, Jim Sterling is like the biggest anti Sony fanboy on the web, I bet he wrote the destructoid review if it really was a 7.

Even so, their 7 is pretty good. Kind of the score I was expecting from some of the sites. It's a game with a specific audience and doesn't have much replay value it seems. Still a good game. Hits the nail on the head.

Destructoid is a joke, period. Don't waste a second worrying about what Destructoid thinks. Them and EDGE are about the most useless pieces of gaming "journalism" on the planet.

On the contrary, a 9 from Eurogamer is usually a 10.5 at Gamespot. ;)

They've been giving fairly high PS3 exclusive scores for a while now, with Demon's Souls at 9.0 and WKC at 8.0, but they do still seem harsh on lots of games, so a 9/10 from them means something.

Which further proves you can no longer use the formula of IGN - 1.0 = GS score. Maybe we can just wait and see what they score it?

LOL yeah, PLAY can join them too. It just seems like publications for extreme niche fanboys to crap all over everything people like. Contrarians who do it for the publicity.

Remember that guy who always told you he was into Nirvana, or Tool, or whoever whoever blah blah "WAY BEFORE EVERYONE ELSE" and he is a true fan, and then when everyone else starts to like them, he stops? Not because the music sucks, but because he cares more about his image than enjoying the music? Those guys became video game critics and they all work for EDGE and PLAY and Destructoid.

I could crap all over every cla55ic movie, book or game of all time, it's really not hard to hate something when you want to.

Yeah, they added it back and it didn't change the total score of 90. Must have been an error since the 70 probably would have dipped it a point with only 23 reviews..

I think they've been 'Highly Fair' to ps3 exclusives recently. In the past year the PS3 has offered some high quality games (I'm not talking against you though). And you're right, Eurogamer 9 is a pretty big deal IMO.

Seems like 9 is the general consensus so far.

I really don't understand you. It's not even like you're particularly good at trolling since it's so very transparent and against all logic and common sense. It's such obvious flamebait it's not even...it's basically like you're trying to argue that water isn't wet. It's simply not worth making any counter arguements as it's so very obvious that you are so very wrong, and aware of it. And it's not like you're funny either. You're just reiterating the same thing over and over again. It's boring.

What kind of enjoyment could you possibly derive out of intentionally making yourself look like a fool?

Don't bother. He just goes on about saying the same thing all the time. Just let him be.

As for this and the Kotaku review, I'm really surprised but happy. I can't wait to pick it up.
