Who said anyone wanted to change their score? :/

And no one is allowed to change the score after the official hype thread - not PS3,360,Wii or PC fanboys. I don't understand why they would see it necessary.

No one is, at least I haven't seen anyone attempt to.

This seems like a trollish thread to me, but it's subtle. It's, a stealth troll.

Bingo. After the first review comes out, the hype is fixed and cannot be changed. Official SW rules decided by popular vote.

lol :P, not even if they give X360 fans (in exchange for letting this one slide) some flop protection tickets on two X360 games?

Why should anyone change it over 1 score? It's AA and I still think it'll get AA or even maybe a AAA score if Gamespot likes the controls enough.

The controls are apprently terrible though... that's why some cows want to change the hype. Why is it always cows that want to change the hype anyway?

I would think once a review comes out the Hype Score cant be changed. Flip Flopping is not allowed on System Wars.

Cows hyped it AAA to begin with and are now acting like they dont care that much about it and think it's a AA game. >_> There was a thread a while back titled "Lair > Halo", and if anyone brings up 2007 games coming to the 360 like Halo, Mass Effect and BioShock they are ALWAYS countered with "what about Heavenly Sword, Lair etc".

It's a sad case of deliberate de-hyping of an over-hyped game.

They did the same with the PSP. It was supposed to annihilate the DS but flopped hard. Now they act as if they never hyped it. It's not a bad handheld but it still flopped hard. =/

Anyways, as everyone else has already mentioned, it's only one review. There are loads more to come. Check Game Rankings for your ratings.

Don't jump ship just yet. Lost Planet flopped in EGM and gamespot still scored it 8.1. (And also dead rising now that I think of it.)

RELAX and just wait.

Still hyped AA.

Bread_or_Decide

lost planet wasn't a good game (IMO).

anyway, I've noticed even PS3 fans seem somehow denounced the game before it even receive a GS score.

There used to be a lot of fans carrying lair sigs (animated gifs and stuff), but now I hardly find any.

that goes to tell you somehow they realized (what a lot of x360 fans knew all along) that the game looks mediocre
