I think it is a conspiracy lol. Wipeout HD Fury. I got this game for free. I'm having a blast with this game. It's clearly a 9. A 7.5 gamespot?? What is wrong with this game? I can't figure it out. It's wipeout. It has awesome graphics and new modes, tracks, ships and great multiplayer.

Thing is I never would have bought it. But now that I have it, it's one of my favorite games.

inFAMOUS 2 for sure. I just finished my good karma play through and it is easily AAAE. No doubt about it. It's topped the first inFAMOUS in every single aspect by a very large margin. It's one of those sequels that blows its predecessor clean out of the stratosphere.

To name something not yet mentioned, I'll go with Folklore. Really is a hidden gem of the PS3.

It makes me happy to see more people here who appreciated Nier.:D

No but it shows that reviewers are like any other person or fan for that matter,is the reason i say reviews sucks,now more than ever there is a large group of them that are not objective,are greatly biased and are not afraid to score a game low because they don't like the game,instead of been rated on the game merits,not every one of us like the same thing reviewers are the same.

First Uncharted, inFAMOUS 2. It was at least a 9.0, after playing through the first 13 story missions, it's some prime material.

ModNation Racers was also great. I don't know why some didn't like it/ the hype died down. I have been excited for it since E3 '09.

deBlob was also great.

Alan Wake, I didn't agree with that score at all.

Fable 2 and Fable 3, like what? They deserved a little boost.

Pokemon Black/White. Ya, it's more of the sane ol stuff, but it's the most challenging Pokemon yet due to new gameplay mechanics. It's still addictive as hell.

Crackdown- i found it to be as entertaining as some GTA games. Should have been 8.5-9 not 7/10 Midnight Club LA- everyone criticizing it for being too difficult. I don't understand, how is that bad? If it's difficult, it means that there is alot of replay value. And no, it wasn't too difficult

I just remembered the Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep review. That was by far the worst review I've ever read in my entire life.

The menu's were far from why GT5 was rated so low.

I still can't believe they gave the game a 7.5(console) even though I played th PC version.

I will throw Mirrors Edge into the mix.

New Vegas... definitely.

It reminds me of Fallout 2 in the way that it used the same engine as a predecessor. I didn't take it as a bad thing, even if it's aging.

More than likely it's a bigger Coincidence that your favorite system happens to the PS3. Which is why those reviews stand out to you. Lets look at Imfamous 2 who average is 86% on GameFaqs well that only 1 stage higher than Gamespot score. Now a game you don't care about Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn got a 6.0 on here and is a Wii game. On GameFaqs it's score is 78% that a 1.5 stages higher. So does Gamespot hate the Wii also?

Magicka was worth more than an A rating. Cliffs of Dover is also not a 4.0, at least not now.

Why would it score higher if it can only be appreciated by someone who is already a fan of the series?

All those games are a solid 10/10 imho. Most overrated...Halo games.

GeneralShowzer

Dude demon souls got goty... Halo is an opinion thing as to whether you enjoy it (personally I prefer is to BC2 which I can't really see why people enjoy it so much) but you can't really say it doesn't deserve some respect?!? I would pick the witcher (first game) because it had the same themes as the sequel and I don't see why it didn't get a 9.0 (although I have heard it was buggy at launch and I am basing my opinion of the enhanced edition).
