[QUOTE="-Snooze-"][QUOTE="The_RedLion"] they are inconsistent because you dont agree on a game you havent played? what kind of argument is that? and being inconsistent means theyre wrong somewhereThe_RedLion
Their inconsistency is evident in several reviews. This review being just the latest. A review being inconsistent doesnt mean it's wrong, people are inconsistent and as such so will there feelings on games be.
For proffesional reasons though they should strive to keep reviews as consistent as possible in order to create some some uniform standards.
explain how theyre inconsistent without using your personal opinion about the gamesHave you never read a review where the reviewer has criticiced a game for being too similar to the previous title?Well COD does this every year and yet constant AAA

if that were the only thing that decided the score for games, you'd have a point, but scores are decided by a lot of things so noLOL, this guy is calling other people a fanboy... LOLAnother Tom McShame review. I never agree with his reviews and I think he is the worst reviewer on the site. Pretty much everytime he does a review I know it is going to be a good 1.5 to 2 points lower than my opinion. I also can't stand to hear him talk and he always looks like he needs a shower.And yes, GameSpot reviews are wholly inconsistent. You are either blind or a fanboy not to see that.

Holy sh.... I expected it to get something like 8.5 or 9... damn, bad year for the cows :Pkhoofia_pika
Agreed! :lol: Those guys just keep getting exclusve games upon exclusive games, lol. ;) :P It's a terrible year for them.
Fun Fact, did you know the 360 has had ZERO flops this year? It's just amazing! :P
[QUOTE="sanim02"][QUOTE="mitu123"] There will be a meltdown...Heil68
Resistance 3, Uncharted 3, Twisted Metal... Humble it up cows, yall still got 6 months left.:P ... Then again it's not like the lems got much to begin with thus far.. It's been half a year and it's still 0 under the 360 exclusives.:P
Exactly right...Embrace the flop dudes. *embraces Infamous2*...soooo good! ..Least it's a AE, which by the looks of it the 360 would kills for right about now. :lol: I will play this when it drops in price as I enjoyed the first game. It's just a win all the way around by golly! It's a flop. No one is going to get excited over a AE game. And judging by your little spreadsheet you take this all too seriously :roll:[QUOTE="khoofia_pika"]Holy sh.... I expected it to get something like 8.5 or 9... damn, bad year for the cows :PSolidTy

Apart from LBP2, nothing has really gone right for the PS3 this year KZ3 was a disappointment, inFamous 2 is a disappointment, multiplatform games have been better on the 360, PSN has gone down for a month and everyone's credit card info has been leaked, PS Store has gone down... not really the best of years for Sony ;)HALO reach which is THE same game and ODST scored 9.5 and 9!!!
WHAT A JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you know what castlevania lords of shadow scored 7.5 and it is way better than that.
JUST CHECK THE USER SCORE IN ALL GAMES. this is what matters.
:lol: flop of the year

the score is just a joke...someone was grumpy all day and reviewed the game and took out his anger on it....only reason it got 7.5 is cause its not a big step up. well it didnt step down so it was meant to be a 9....anw. ign review is much better

Yeah, I still wouldn't count on two games winning the year for the 360. Seriously that would be like what, a 10 month wait to actually get to your games? :?

(In fact, you forgot MLB11 : The Show (AAE), DC Universe (A), SOCOM 4 (AE), Motorstorm Apocalypse (AAE)with that list you posted above):)
First you were talking cows, then you changed the topic and started talking about Sony the company. I've been talking GAMES this whole time...Games for Gamers(which is what Cows, Lemmings, Hermits, and Sheep are made of ;) )!
Also, you must have missed the memo since you brought up multiplats, L.A. Noire was a huge multiplat, it ran better, looked better on PS3, it had more content, all on one snuggly Blu-Ray disc. Right now, the L.A. Noire multiplat on 360, had less content, performed worse and looked worse (according to IGN, Giantbomb, Lens Of Truth, and others), but it did have more...discs. It's a 3 disc game!...
I gotta be honest, as a Gamer, I would rather have a bunch of games coming out all year rather than wait till the end of the year. Luckily as a gamer, I will have and actively play all the machines. Still, It's nice that games are actually coming out and being created for us to play. Seems like an excellent year for Gamers. ;)

But if you want....yes, i completly agree that PS3 have been having a better year so far :)

I actually quoted you by accident, sorry ^_^' And I doubt the second half will be much different. Microsoft doesn't have a history of announcing games at E3 then bringing them out the same year, so Gears 3 and Forza 4 are probably all that the 360 will get. PS3 still has a bunch of exclusives for the second half of the year too, admittedly, the only one that will review high enough to really be a threat to those two games is Uncharted 3. I still think Twisted Metal and Resistance 3 are going to review okay, but not great. Probably 7-8.Fixed. That's factually incorrect.[QUOTE="GeneralShowzer"]Don't know what everyone is on about.

L.A Noire has a higher Metacritic score on the 360 (90 on the 360, 89 on the PS3) DESPITE all the stuff you mention and despite the fact that the 360 versions of games always get more reviews, which makes them susceptible to receiving lower aggregates. All multiplats except for Crysis 2 and Dragon Age II were better on the 360 this year (Bulletstorm was equally good on both).
Cows follow which company? Sony, right? Don't nitpick, I didn't move from fans to company, I'm talking about the same general thing.

I still think Twisted Metal and Resistance 3 are going to review okay, but not great. Probably 7-8.No problem man.
And for the second half of the year, we can do nothing but wait. Im expecting Gears and Forza to do great, some kinect games will probably score A and AA here and there and theres also The Witcher 2. Not sure which console will do better but at least we know 360 will have a good fall.
