Everyone does know this game was hyped AA right? PS3 owners should just be quiet when this so called, as they call it, lame sequel outscored AAA hyped games such as Lair and Heavenly Sword and just tied your best PS3 game to date....Warhawk....lol.

I agree, except that lair wasn't AAA hyped.

Project Gotham 3 got 8.8, so it must not be that big of an improvement. Shame, I will rent it for the bikes though.

Lair wasn't AAA hyped??? omg, thats saying like Halo 3 wasn't hyped. Lair was the most hyped game for PS3 this year and not only did it flop it flopped horribly.

In the same manner that we can say that PGR4 wasn't hyped AAA, we can say that Lair wasn't either.

How? Check this out.

IGN UK, eurogamer, and a bunch of other sites and mags have already given it a 9 or higher.

Looks like another game ONLY gamespot will not give AAA status.

I'm sure it is another PGR2, had a 93.5% on gamerankings and AA on gamespot.

I don't know why they don't "get" this series and why it's so great.

Oh well, 8.5 is still an really great score. This game is going to be an amazing amount of fun!!!

Definitely pick it up, the review came a little under the radar though. This looks like one of the better 360 titles coming up IMO.

Awesome score, I've never owned a PGR game, and I think I'll pick this one up later.

Great online play + motor cycles + weather effects = very deep game and plenty of different of combinations of gameplay.

Ah yes, a AA game scoring AA must mean a flop! You cows are pathetic...

8.5 for Warhawk and cows go crazy saying it reached hype. Cows on here saying 8.5 is crap for PGR4 when that was what it was hyped.

Game standards are higher on the 360.

Under the old review system PGR4 could have gotten an 8.8 or an 8.9 for all you know.

Also, everyone else has given this game a AAA score so far so I'm more doubting gamespot than doubting the game.

Just like Metroid, Zelda, and Zelda TP. Another game gamespot doesn'tgive AAAbut is still one of the best games out for any system on the market.

They gave PGR2 a AA score and it has a 93.5 on gamerankings. I'm guessing PGR4 will be the same.

Those of you saying an 8.5 is a flop are really pathetic....PGR4 is a RACING game, lets count how many arcade style racing games in the past 5 years have gotten a AAA score...not many, PGR 1 and 2 were great games with a huge fan base, but not a 9.0+ score.The only racing games that getAAA on GS are the boring simulation racing games, the ones where itfeels like your driving a minivan (yeah I'm talking about forza andgran turisimo). 8.5 is a GREAT score for this game and I consider it AAA due to the tough racing game scores over the past 5 years.

[QUOTE="biggamerhk"]simply a flopbiggamerhk

I would really like to see one of you who are saying it is a flop to give a reason why it is.

well, by lemming standards these days, all 360 exclusives are considered to be AAA titles before they even come out. lemmings have just gotten a bit too arrogant these days . . . . not all of your games are going to be AAA material . . .

By lemming standards, the game was hyped AAE and that is what it achieved. If you can give me a thread that shows a majority of lemmings hyped it AAA then yes I will say it was a flop. Sure after OXM and IGN UK we were hoping it would get AAA but the official hype was AA and remained AA.

ok, i understand what you are saying, and yes, it was hyped AA, but it just didn't seem to live up to its expectations.

i agree, i mean this is supposed to be the answer to gran turismo? right? The GT series is the most popular racing series out there, and unless it flops hard on the ps3 thats not going to change....

Most (i think all actually) PGR games have gotten AA. Sounds good, another quality racing title for the 360. :)

many Raing motorcycles can dust a car and go up to 200MPH there lite and have massive HP. GS seems to know nothing about that.

If PGR 4 flopped, then so did Warhawk. Which is it cows? Better yet, why not just quit trying to change the rules EVERYTIME you don't get your way...

I have it pre-ordered so I'm getting it either way.

Oh and you guys know it scored lower than PGR 3 right? And this has nothign to do with the new rating system because if PGR 4 scored a 8.8 like PGR 3, they would round it up to 9.0 in the new rating system.

Everyone knows this. Even 6 year old kids and 80 year old grandmothers.

What they meant was of course that the motorcycles were overpowered compared to the cars in the game.

Using a ban dodging account, eh?

To answer (which I already posted pages before) I just want cows to start trying to use a universal system. Cows are say this PGR4 is a flop because it was hyped by some as a 'GT5 killer.' I posted specific examples in the Warhawk disscusion thread like Godhawk on the Godstation 3 . Same levity of hype for both games.


If anything, I'm pointing out that the only true hypocrites here are the cows....

Well, if i remember correctly, when OXM reviewed this game AAA, some lemmings were hyping it to be more than AA. And your specific examples regarding warhawk would not have reflected the majority of cows' hype of warhawk. So its pretty much the same thing. I get that you actually did point out some hypocrits but it was not the whole cow population(this sounds totally wrong). Same goes to the cows bashing this game to be a flop, because its not.

edit:not using a ban dodge account, whatever that is.

Another screwball review from Gamespot dinging a 360 game for the lamest reasons imaginable. As that other guy said motorcycles are in fact going to beat many 4 wheelers in most races. So its an 8.5 because...the reviewer doesn't like reality? He can't help but use bikes when he has the option to use cars? Its a strong score no doubt but considering how much of an improvement it is from the third game it seems it should be AAA.

This is a great case of selective memory loss. This game was hyped as the best racer ever, GT killer, blah blah, for ages on SW. On top of that, Warhawk met it's hype and was still called a "flop" day in and out by lems, but it seems nobody remembers that either.

The official hype threads are bogus to begin with, but now that everyone is playing it safe, they are a joke.

This board can be a great place to get information, but it's getting ridiculous how the whole focus of the board is "owning" one another, to the point that the whole thing is regulated and officiated.

And your post is a great example of "false memory". Please find examples of anyone sayingthe things you are ranting about.
