I can't believe that ACiT and FF13 both got 8.5 on GS!

Different people reviewed it(I assume). Yes the reviewer follows the criteria when reviewing the game but they're not robots. One can be more lenient on certain aspects of the game while the other isn't.

I agree, A crack in Time was amazing, and I thought it should have scored better, but 8.5 is not a bad score.

(anything about 7.0 is good, above 6.0 is playable).

FFXIII was good but I didn't enjoy it as much as R&C, it was very long though.

K, can I just say something? The whole "Ahah FFXIII is a terrible game and I'm a diehard FF fan" debacle is getting old fellas. Put it to rest. We all know it isn't a masterpiece, but by GS review standards, it is still a great game. And I enjoyed the game, despite its flaws.

If ACiT was longer then 7.5 hours and FF13 had an actually good story, then yes they should have scored higher.

It may seem I was beating a dead horse but i was trying to convey a point to TC, I also agree FFXIII is a great game but definately not a masterpiece

They're just scores buddy. I personally think Alan Wake's one of the best games released this gen and it got the same score as POS FFXIII

It is a good game, but I don't see how it matches to ACiT.

Only those that have played very few JRPGs or FF games are capable of calling Final Fantasy XIII a masterpiece.

Ouch...really What if you liked all the others and just couldn't stand how they butchered 13 soo badly that you never picked it up again and you traded it in...but you supported all the other games?

Sorry guys I guess I'm not a fan of FF anymore...maybe that is a good thing?

I'm surprised FFXIII got an 8.5 to, yeah... Surprised it didn't get a 7.0. Which is what it clearly deserved. Game was one big giant eye candy with zero substance whatsoever.

You can stand by what you say in that very small flock. Square-Enix have already acknowledged the negative opinions about the game. Hopefully that will make for a better FF the next time. One that isn't an interactive linear tunnel movie.

Well I'm yet to play ACiT but I just played ToD and that was just pure gaming joy. Not the most amazing, mind blowing experience, but it was awesome. And everything I've heard about ACiT is that it's better with more platforming (which is sorely lacking in ToD). TBH I think they deserve those scores. Maybe ACiT deserves a 9?

Different people, different opinions but to me to say that FFXIII sucked is an understatement... I beat the game for the trophies and even though I'm a huge fan of FF I just had to sell the game because I didn't want that garbage to be part of my collection.

I think that the scores are fair enough.

FFXIII WAS a masterpiece, just not a perfect one. It had a lot of flaws.

On the other hand aCiT was perfect imo, but not quite a masterpiece.

If Insomniac had one more try at the classic Ratchet and Clank formula, I'm sure they'd get a 9.5. That's why All4One makes me somewhat disappointed.

This really. I loved UYA and ACiT was even better, but there were a lot of things missing from it. And A40 sucks. . .

I'm pretty sure what is meant by this is that it's a strictly linear path, the open world has been done away with and as such a huge portion of content is missing.
