Jeff reviews Bioshock, and takes a shot at Halo in the process

Jeff is gonna flop halo 3.OGTiago

Im hoping Alex reviews it, most likely wont happen though :(

[QUOTE="hockeyruler12"]

yeah...Jeff needs to be fired. He flopped Twilight Princess, gave WarioWare a 9.1 (LOL), and now gives one of the higest rated games in a long time, with a 98% on gamerankings, a 9.0.

Jeff seems to flop everything, on every console. I can almost guarentee that this is because gamespot needs more network traffic.

Bioshock didn't flop :?

never said it did...

[QUOTE="USSJAndrew"] God of War is in fact one of the greatest games ever, and deserves a higher score. redCloudJ7

:lol: It does not deserve a higher score. It's not the best game in its genre.

:lol::? I never said it was. :|

jechtshot78

If he is and it scores a 9.5, I am done with gamespot.

it'll be a tough holiday for X360 fans :P

Hmm..I don't know, I'm pretty sure I saw some "AAAA"'s coming from the lemmings.

Jeff is gonna flop halo 3.OGTiago

Ya, Halo 3 looks floppable. I really hope Jeff reviews it now. :D

It runs fine on my rig. What I mean by glitchy is that when I shoot someone from 2 feet away in the face with a shotgun on BF2, it kills them EVERY time. Halo is the most frustrating thing to me because I simply can't figure out why in the world the game decides to have you "miss" sometimes, or how sometimes you can shoot someone 4 times in the back of the head with the shotgun just to have them turn around and pop you once and kill you. The sword on Halo is terrible as well. The other guns I don't really have a problem with, though. Just the shotgun and sword.

i_like_pizza

Yeah, I guess Halo is kind of weird... the thing is that Halo's "glitches" are more rooted in the gameplay mechanics while BF2's are more just technical flaws. I mean, haven't you had any moments where you the shift key won't make you run, or after parachuting your gun won't shoot until you switch weapons and switch back?

Yeah. It was a hyped AAA, and it got a AAA. Also Editor's choice.DuDisNow

Playing the Halo 3 beta, I was always able to take out people no problem with a shotgun. Especially when I was in the tight spaces in snowbound.

Oh, yeah, I've had those issues with BF2. The sprinting problem is especially frustrating, so I can definitely see what you're saying, and I agree. Both are glitchy in different areas.

whatever you want to call it lol

Halo 3 - 8.5 confirmed?asdasd

im sorry guys if this a competition ? the best console and the best game?, im the only one who missed those old days when i play games with no importance in reviews and sales

i mean for me bioshock and halo could score a 10 or a 0 i dont care im just playing games

yeah i know im in system wars but im sorry but i d'not care of opinion from another person

besides 9 is a great score is like 10 minus 1 lol so play games enjoy the life , is too short to arguing nonsense and forget the reviews and the sales

simple play it and enjoy - my new motto , i gonna have patent with this one too lol

"Its weak link is its unsatisfying no-skill-required combat, which might aim this one just over the head of the average Halo fan."

what the heck kind of statement was that? Ive watched Jeff play some games, he isnt exactly as skilled as the average Halo player.

kevy619

actually halo is very good. and jeff is a freaking moron. he flops tp. and he screws this review up when bioshock is getting a 97% on gamerankings. jeff=dead to me.xbox360isgr8t

wow you might be the most over dramatic person ever. tp deserved the 8.8 it some nintendo fanboys could see that its the same game they where playing a long time and besides the 8.8 still counted as a great game. Same with this 9.0 still AAA still a must buy game.

damage control much you lemmings loveeeeeeeeeeeee jeff. he said what i think about halo

If people are saying this is an insult to halo fans, you have no reading comprehension at all, and i pity you. He is saying it is too easy for the halo fans, not that it is too hard.

God, play halo on legendary and then tell me that its easy.

Man some of you lemmings are dumb, the guy gives the game a fair and balanced review aside from that he gave it a good score and because he dares to mention Halo you idiots want his head. Why shouldn't he review Halo 3, in fact I think he should his review was fair if you do not like it too bad but dont go saying he should get fired.

I think you did good Jeff, don't listen to these dumbass fanboys with their "Finish teh Fight" sigs.

So your telling me that, since most are reviewing it perfect, and he is the ONE missing link, that makes him fair? Damn i would hate to see you at a jury selection.

Zelda TP added a lot and we saw how that worked out. Now Lemmings know why Sheep dislike JEff as a reviewer.

So he's just supposed to go with the crowd? He has valid points. You people are driving me crazy; it got AAA and is an awesome game. I'm picking up my Limited Edition first thing tomorrow.

Jeff is a good reviewer, just because he's not a fanboy like some of you, his opinions aren't going to be the same. Remember this is just one review, nothing to complain about.Magical_Guy

Yeah so I guess when IGN gave it a 9.7 (on 360 AND PC, mind you), they were being fanboys, right?

And when Gamespy gave it 5/5, they were being fanboys, right?

And when Game Informer gave it 10/10, they were also being fanboys?

And when dozens of other review sites and magazines gave it 5/5's, 10/10's, and just general AAAA's, they were all being fanboys, yeah? This guy sucks at reviewing. I used to not have any issues with his reviews, even TP didn't bother me. But seeing how Bioshock has a 97% at GameRankings, and how low his score was, it questions the legitmacy of the whole thing. Even Cows and Sheep have to admit they didn't see this one coming. I will never take any of his reviews into consideration ever again, not for Wii, not for 360, and possibly not for PS3 because I'm sure he's gonna flop some of those games as well. I don't feel owned, as a 360 owner, not considering that virtually everywhere else, this game recieved incredible scores. Low scores for Bioshock happen to be a very small minority, doesn't bother me at all.

Auto aim will kill the fps genre :( i really hate the option of not having auto aim even if it might be a little frusturating it gives incentive to try harder

He had two small points, alittle bit to easy with its aiming and that it lagged for like one second sometimes. that is enough to take off a full p oint?

[QUOTE="OGTiago"]Jeff is gonna flop halo 3.kevy619

IfHalo3 gets anything below 9.0 it will be chaos in GS, I swear I never comeback to this place.

Ill stick with my IGN. score for Bioshock.

[QUOTE="snorlaxmaster"]What would happen if he was the one reviewing Halo 3?!?!?!? *cringes at the thought* :|6matt6

jeff hasnt been interested in halo 3 it seems. for the sake of a decent and fair reveiw i hope he doesnt review it.

What would be fair, if a Halo fanboy reviews it?

One question, did you read the whole review. Likley not. Also you say that your a Halo fan, good for you, why should Jeff get fired when he was just using a well established franchise on the 360, which some may argue is the only decent one there, to give xbox people an idea of what they are in for.

I am not dissing Halo nor bioshock nor MS just you morons who take cheap shots at someone who does not deserve it. As far as saying "everyone else gave it a 10" you are making it sound like he gave it a 6 sorry but he gave it a 9.

I didnt say Jeff should be fired, or much of anything about the review itself. Although, as soon as I saw 9.0 I knew Gertsman was behind it.

Good for Jeff for not succumbing to the hype and claiming this game to be Game of the Year. This game was very hyped, but not by everyone. Most people I know weren't impressed with the demo.

As for him taking a shot at Halo, that's his opinion and there's no need to take such offense to it.

A lot of people would agree with him. It's not like he's the only one who holds the same opinion about Halo and Bioshock.

Dont worry Halo 3 wont score a 9.5 it will be a 8.0 :D
