  • Gamespot - 8.5
  • GiantBomb - 4/5
  • GameyRadar - 8
  • 1UP - B+

I am predicting these scores from these sites in particular , I'll be shocked if it goes any higher. If it goes higher on these sites , then wow is all I'll say. I'll even be Killzowned.

Nike_Air

I have it hyped as getting a 9.0 from Gamespot, but I am sort of expecting it to get an 8.5 as well, to be honest. It should be interesting to see what Gametrailers gives it. Better yet, how about EDGE, lol?

Link us to teh review plz. :) :P_Brennan_

Picky, picky. :P

Linkage.

Thank you. :)

9.4 on graphics? *facepalm* They didn't mention anything negative about them, yet they get a 9.4?? :shock: :? Here's what they said: "The particle effects are excellent and the animations are well done. This is a game that assaults the eyes with as much enthusiasm as the ISA attacks on the Helghast." No reason(s) was given as to why the graphics recieved a 9.4....Not a credible review if stuff like this happens...Basically, they're saying "The graphics are amazing, but we're giving them a 9.4/10, and we're not going to give any reasons why we think the graphics deserve this score" :roll:

[QUOTE="Floppy_Jim"][QUOTE="carljohnson3456"][QUOTE="Floppy_Jim"] Oh, fair enough. And yes, I got 5000 :P

How can you tell?

Next to the thread title, it tells you who the last person to post was. And next to that, it tells you how many posts there have been. So "Floppy_Jim" + "5000" = I got post 5000 :P

lol So it's all about catching it in time... I see!

I am predicting these scores from these sites in particular , I'll be shocked if it goes any higher. If it goes higher on these sites , then wow is all I'll say. I'll even be Killzowned.

Nike_Air, I think you were KILLZOWNED way back when the Eurogamer review came out. You said they would "crush our dreams", and give it a 7 or 8, and instead they gave it a 9. KILLZOWNED! :P

I would have probably put Eurogamer in that select group for an 8 probably , so it was a little surprising. That's just one down though , and they are a Euro-source so I am conflicted on that one.

I agree, the graphics should of gotten a 10, but I guess you can't win them all. :(

I still havnt tried RE5 yet. I had a friend who said theyd play c op with me but then said they had to go just as I finished the install. I bet theyre just on some games website posting in some hype thread...lolIndie_Hitman
thats me stupid:lol:EDIT:lol:now i get it
[QUOTE="Floppy_Jim"]I think GS is the only major site to have not reviewed KZ2 yet.Delsage
As much as I don't like Any of them, there is still 1Up, Gamespy, Gametrailers (debatable) and Gameinformer.

GT reviewed it:shock: ????????

For one thing, 1Up and Game Radar are so biased towards the PS3 that they shouldn't even be reviewing any games for the system. The guy at Game radar even said he didn't own the system and felt no need to do so. So why should we trust them anyway?

Nike_Air, I think you were KILLZOWNED way back when the Eurogamer review came out. You said they would "crush our dreams", and give it a 7 or 8, and instead they gave it a 9. KILLZOWNED! :P

Fair point there I guess.With that said, I have a feeling those predictions you made will probably be right. 1up, being the biased losers they are, will NOT give the game an A, but a B+ just because... :roll: I don't care about Giant Bomb or "Gamey Radar"? O_o :shock: And while I think GS will give it a 9.5, I would not be shocked if they gave it an 8.5, or lower...

You're biased for thinking that unbiased sources would ever show bias. 1up just tells it like it is like that Dan Shoe guy that was one of the last beacons of journalistic integrity.(until he quit) The things he did there still remain , he left his legacy.

Are you guys not worried by the lack of tens this game is getting? Even average games like Halo3 got tens in the early reviews. Can you attribute this for lack of hype and mindshare for the game? If so, do you think it will be able to do well in retail? Or do you think you can contribute it to the game just not being as good as the likes of Halo 3? What's your opinion?

[QUOTE="_Brennan_"][QUOTE="mitu123"] And that's why I am disappointed with most overhyped games this gen, plus that comment was uncalled for anyways, I didn't even like that review much.mitu123
Well, look at who's giving the review. Not exactly a credible, well-known source for gaming.... Thus, we get these ridiculous reviews. Yeah they gave it a good score, but that's beside the point, which is the fact that they made KZ2 seem as though it's going to be an epic, best game ever, GotY type of game (not saying it won't be), and when this happens, some people get hyped up, then when they get the game expecting something beyond epic, and then it doesn't meet their overhyped expectations, you get disappointment. Luckily we have down to earth, credible reviewers out there, who are sensible, and keep things in perspective..

That's exactly how it is(to me at least), I'm going to try to rely on credible sources, and see if the game lives up to the scores/hype or not. I don't want this to be another GTA IV...

Credible sources: Gamespot, IGN?.....??????!!!!!!!???? Yes, some sources are obvious....obviously biased, obviously ridiculous, obviously looking for a hook for credulous people, but... Take Oblivion, for example. Or Gears of War 1. Take those two games and carry them up to the moon and back and try to find an answer for that kind of insanity. Or Call of Duty 2.

personally i'll be having too much fun playing KZ2 to give a darn thing about the reviews & what haters (fanboys) will have to say about low scores the game might get... i'll leave sad haters enjoy any 'possible' low scores to claim some sort of ownage while i'll be having a blast through the sp campaign and its great mp...

How do you think sales will go for Killzone 2 in NA (NPD) in the first few months. Not a lot of tracking days in February , so perhaps something like this ?

  • Feb - 350k
  • March - 275k
  • April - 100k
  • May - 50k

Less tens is more wins. In other words, has a less chance of being overrated.

So are you saying MEgamers are a more credible source for gaming reviews than IGN and Gamespot?:?

[QUOTE="mitu123"][QUOTE="_Brennan_"]Well, look at who's giving the review. Not exactly a credible, well-known source for gaming.... Thus, we get these ridiculous reviews. Yeah they gave it a good score, but that's beside the point, which is the fact that they made KZ2 seem as though it's going to be an epic, best game ever, GotY type of game (not saying it won't be), and when this happens, some people get hyped up, then when they get the game expecting something beyond epic, and then it doesn't meet their overhyped expectations, you get disappointment. Luckily we have down to earth, credible reviewers out there, who are sensible, and keep things in perspective..BobHipJames
That's exactly how it is(to me at least), I'm going to try to rely on credible sources, and see if the game lives up to the scores/hype or not. I don't want this to be another GTA IV...

Credible sources: Gamespot, IGN?.....??????!!!!!!!???? Yes, some sources are obvious....obviously biased, obviously ridiculous, obviously looking for a hook for credulous people, but... Take Oblivion, for example. Or Gears of War 1. Take those two games and carry them up to the moon and back and try to find an answer for that kind of insanity. Or Call of Duty 2.

It seems that reviews are getting harder to trust these days.

Who gave it an 8? I was referring to what Delsage was talking about. He had mentioned MGS4 getting a 9.1..

eurogamer gave MGS4 an 8

Ah ok, but that's not who Delsage was talking about....As a matter of fact, I don't even know who he was talking about.. :?

What was I talking about?? Umm .. I only recall naming off the biased site IE: 1Up and Gamesradar. The fact that 1Up gave MGS4 a 9.1 and Halo 3 a 10, the 8 I don't recall where that was mentioned. Unless were talking about Game Daily here, an unreliable source.

No, the 8 came from totalpwnaae. He said Eurogamer gave it an 8, and I told him that you had mentioned MGS4 getting a 9.1, but didn't know which site you were talking about. ;)
