Ratchet and Clank gets A here but Triple A everywhere else. Hates the Wii (well, understandable)

That R & C score really surprised me though, the game is gonna be sick though regardless. I knew and respected Gamespot for being tough critics but lately I've noticed a pattern of unreasonability

If anything after looking over at Game Rankings Gamespot has actually taken the most pity on PS3's library.

Gamespot has handed then three AAA titles whereas Gamerankings has given them one?

And it seems R&C's score is dropping with every passing hour thus far.

Clearly the entire industry has a bias against Sony!!!

Erm, "everywhere else" is IGN and a couple of PS-centric magazines to you? 'cause aside from those, Gamespy gave it a 4/5, and GS a 7.5

Ratchet and Clank is not AAA everywhere. It got 8.5 at 1up, 8.0 and gamespy, 8 at EDGE and 7.5 here. It's not that big a difference at all. If you go to gamerankings, it's score has dropped way down to 90.2% - by next week it wont even be AAA there any more.

So let it go. Gamespot have done nothing wrong. And to imply microsoft has had any part in this is just stupid; gamespot flopped brute force, heck they flopped Fable and that was a HUGE microsoft game.

What pattern? You're just crying because your one game didn't get the score you thought it would. And you had to make a new account for this because you KNOW that it's stupid and you dont want to risk moderation. Take it to the sticky, or better still, just let it go.

The same fanboy who made this thread also just claimed that Edge isn't a credible review source. :roll:

The main problem is Sony has yet to put out a TRUE console seller.. MS has quite a few.

Gears and Halo 3 in particular!!

Sony just hates its fans.. really it does!!! Just look at the 40 GB PS3..

Great game's thats what the PS3 has... there aren't any "superb" exlcusives and thats FINAL and thats what AAAE's are SUPERB GAMES NOT GREAT GAMES.

Other sites seem to give away 9's and 10's like candy on halloween, FFS 10's sure Iv only come across 1 game ever that I thought was perfect and that was PONG; it was the first game all the other's were considered copy's and the 3D games started the "glitch" trend :(.

It didn't get AAA everywhere, out of 10 reviews it also had AA at 1up and Gamespy so it will probably drop at gamerankings once more reviews start coming in. I actually thought GS's review was much better than IGN (where they pretty much summarized the lame storyline of the game and said omgz nice grafix).
