This sci-fi sequel seems like it should have everything you need in a shooter, but a shocking number of design missteps suck out much of the fun.

ouch?

Review is not showing up. Both PS3 and X360 review pages contain no text or pictures from the review. No good/bad emblems, no good and bad section. Just ... nothing. :(

But the score is up... and that is an ouch.

I wasn't expecting much. Although, without an actual review it could just be a glitch.

2nd one this month

The hype for this game was off the charts when they announced it tentatively exclusive for the 360 it was hyped to outperform all other console games visually to boast unrivaled textures and character models, then they confirmed it was going to be released for the other HD systems, hype went down to almost zero right after, and now here we are with a 5.5 score in a forum where where hollow numerical figures have more relevance than reviews themselves. Its the circle of SW.

Oh. Wow. That's, a little surprising. I was expecting a 6.5. But, Kevin is smart and a good reviewer and I trust his opinion. Wasn't going to buy it until it got cheap, but now I don't think I'll bother with it. Wonder what Giantbomb's reaction will be?

I never understood why the first needed a sequel anyway. Not a bad game, by all means, but not one a company would want to follow through as a series :?

There's no such thing as "overrated". This term needs to fall into disuse.

m I just read/watched the review and now I'm kind of contemplating canceling my pre-order. It's not so much the score that bothers me, watching the stuff Kevin-V pointed out did look extremely frustrating

It's multiplat. No one side of SW is particularly hurt, but gamers in general certainly don't benefit.
ouch?Super-Trooper
Ouch indeed. I would have bet on this game getting AA at least. The range of review scores is sort of amazing. It reminds me of Infinite Space, which has a MetaScore of 75 with GameSpot giving it a 6.5 and there being a fair amount of AAA scores from other publications. Harsh GS is back indeed. :)

Seeing as a rating is almost wholly subjective, no.

i thought it was a timed exclusive? werent lemms claiming ownage over that while back? not only that but i saw threads here claiming it was a 360 exclusive? whatever, im just going by what i saw here at SW while back.
