I know its been said before, but the new system is NOT generous. Games are no longer looked at and rated with 9.6, 9.7, 9.8, and 9.9 in the possibility. It is simply perfect or not perfect. If the game delivers on all fronts, but the reviewer still doesn't think it deserves a 10, the game wont get a 10. It's that simple. There probably will be another AAAA on GS, but not for a long time.

[QUOTE="hellfire9988"]

Gamespots new nore generous rating system to give out the first AAAA in 6 years?

Seeing as the old system's9.6, 9.7, 9.8, 9.9would now = 10?

I put MGS4, and Bioshock as seperate because they are being hyped the most (other than Halo). And I know gears is not exclusive.

Also, put if you think that Corruption Mario galaxy or -------------------------Any other Nintendo exclusive will make AAAA

:oops:MY BAD, I FORGOT ABOUT NINTENDO, IM NOT TRYING TO SNUB THEM, AND IT WON'T LET ME EDIT THE POLE... MY BAD, AND I OWN A Wii TOO. :oops:

marklarmer

only 9.75+ from the old system would be considered a 10 now, but bioshock has the best chance closely followed by crysis imo.

Crysis would never get AAAA, even getting 9.5 is gonna be very hard for them as the system requirents as was with sup com, will affect the score which sux but hey what can you do.

Let's say a game would have gotten 9.8 here on GameSpot before the change. I don't think the GameSpot-crew makes that a 10-game, I think they make it 9.5 instead. 10s are and will remain very rare on GameSpot.

I don't know if its more generous or not. Guess if it is, then AAAA wouldn't mean as much.

Woah there Nelly... settle down.. All people have different tastes in games, and genre... So some people may like "Gears of Snore" in ur sig, or they may like Wii-fit... But they may not like JRPG's.

Bioshock, Phantom Hourglass, Mass Effect, and LBP have the best chance imo but I don't think any of them will get it since they will likely just give all the best games 9.5

also Spore if it ever comes out will have a decent chance

BlazeDragon132

I'd have to argue that the FPS genre is soaring pretty high right now.

IMO Mass Effect has the best chance from what I spotted on the poll listings. The companies previous track record combined with the fact it will be the first noteable 2nd gen RPGto release for the new generation of consoles may just push it enough to do so.

But yeah, Bioshock is lookingbetter and better with each new bit of info that comes out.

You don't think Halo 3 can get a 10? 4 Player co-op single player. Multiplayer is always great. Graphics are beautiful. has a great story line. Play seems to be fluid in the other 1s. I think that has a good chance of being a 10. If we don't see a ten by the end of 08, then there might not be one for this gen of gaming

But they dont even look at games with 9.9 in mind anymore. They don't say "Well this game actually gets a 9.9, so I'll just round it up/down." No. It is either perfect or simply superb.

The rating system is simplified, not generous. If a game would have gotten 8.9 on the old system but the reviewer didn't think it deserved a 9, they would give it an 8.5. A game getting a 9.7 or 9.8 on the old system doesn't mean it's rounded to a 10 if the reviewer doesn't think it deserves a 10. They won't start handing out good scores like candy, it's just made their job rating the games easier.

Halo 3 will not get anything higher then a 9.5, it will be lucky to get even that actually. GS and other reviewers will knock it heavily for below standards graphics for next gen consoles, one would think that the visuals would be better but they are not. Bioshock alone will outscore Halo 3.

I noticed some people calling 10 score game "Perfect". But if you look at the GS rating system page, you can see that they actually changed it to "Prime". Its not Perfect 10 anymore, its Prime 10.

This exactly what the rating needed. Perfect didnt work because no game will ever be perfect, they just needed a term that described how a game by standards at the time of its release, couldnt be improved in any way, and was just incredible. I also asume by this that they will be more generous now with giving out 10s.

To me, Bioshock and Crysis are the only 2 games that can make it. Mario Galaxy could, im sure the gameplay will be just "prime", but im pretty sure it will have shortcomings on the sound department and maybe other areas like most Wii games.

It's alright what he's saying... He's just speculating what he think will happen... nothing wrong with that, and I sort of agree w/ him... But I do think that both Halo, and Bioshock will get 9.5's...

Now adays no game will get a perfect score imo...to much things are put into it...To say a game has a perfect story, gmeplay, replay value, and graphics is just asking to much in such a small time frame...MGS4 is the only game i think can get a perfect score, but thats only cause thier who series is great and GS is a tad bias...Halo...dont even see how it gets over a 9, it is such a weak game *without online or multiplayer that it*

I know exactly what you are saying, but 10/10 = Prime, not perfect. But that whole thing about Halo, it has one of the best stories I've ever seen, best graphics at the time, and AWESOME online play... = value... LOL you can't overlook online.

Seeing as a 10 on gamespot now means "prime" instead of "perfect", I think Bioshock has a slight chance of getting a 10. The game nolonger has to be flawless, just peerless.

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption doesn't have problems in the controls... I'm predicting that Metroid Prime 3 will get a score of 9.1-9.2 :P You say (8.5) according the your signature...Time will tell :P

if anygame is going to get an AAAA score, its Bioshock... Gamespot would give it 9.9 :roll:

I just think that they should of left the scoring alone. I mean if a game was supposed to get around a 9.7 does that mean they round it off to a 10? I just think that the way it was before made it a little bit realistic on the scoring end. Now thats changed so a game that would of gotten lets say an 8.2 or 3 could go to an 8.5. Which I mean one or two more points is not a big deal, I think it is when purchasing a game.

220 people got owned. that is why i say bioshock floped cause it flopped by my standards i hyped it 9.5 or higher and look how many people said it would get a 10 here. just cause it got a AAA doesnt mean squat cause the review did not meet alot of peoples expectations.

Bioshock got a 9.0. Amazing game, that gamespot apparently loved with there review. had so many nice things to say about it. had very little flaws. in fact 2 of the stupidest things i have ever heard, and itsa 9.0(on the new system was probably higher on the old system).

How is this system any easier. If anything Gamespot is now bound to only give 9.0 for most games.

agreed. its sutpidfies reviews and makes reviewers lazy cause they just copy and paste for multiplate games. multiplat games are always going to get the same score unless something is terribly flawed with the game compared to the other
