I mean in terms of GS score; should we expect a AAA in the official hype thread, or we're not that confident it would get there from what we've seen so far?

Not very. Gamespot will most likly say it is more of the same and not really give it a high score.

Funny, they don't do that with Halos.

For the GS score? Not high at all, give it a 7 and I wouldn't be surprised. For the actual game? Through the roof.

I expect a 9.5 or a 10. This game screams next-gen in every way possible. Plus it has multiplayer now. The story is ending, everything will be explained. Supposedly, the intro/beginning is something that has never been done before or will be done again. 70+ weapons. The sound is supposed to be unprecedented on console games. I don't understand how that doesn't add up to at least a 9.5

after this ratchet and clank debacle, i expect high AAA from everywhere else and an 8-8.5 on GS for "more of the same" or "identity crisis, is this game stealth action or a shooter?" :?

It will be AAA. Were safe on the story line aspect. It shouldn't prove to be easy. The only fear is that they decide to dock two points for an unnecessary game mechanic of snapping someone's neck by twisting the Six Axis :roll: .

As far as gamespot score goes, I don't even care, this is the site that gave MGS an 8.5 remember? But as for the game, easily one of the best of 08 :D

Do either of you know what ball hyped R&C as? You're generalizing that everyone agrees with the majority hype in the official thread.

where's the logic when a majority of gaming sites give the same game 9+? you have to take that into account here, hell i wouldnt be arguing if the score was somewhere near that ballpark, but after having played the same so far, i must really disagree with GS's score, while so far its not nearly as good as a 9.4(ign) its a solid AA-AAA game.

From the way Gamespots scores are going recently, maybe 8.5/9.0. I do like this game, I just don't think it will do well to the likes of Mass Effect :P Yes I do like Mass Effect

they gave blue dragon 1.7 points lower than on gr. ratchet got 1.5 points lower. stop please.

how about because after 77 sites reviewed it it has a score of %93. wait until ratchet gets reviewed that many times and see if it's still at $90.

Basing on the past mgs series Gamespot score on consoles. Only mgs2 (let's not talk about substance/substiance/etc. here :P) got AAA status, and I think someone (cannot remember whom) at system wars said that Greg admited he overrated mgs2 due to the hype?

--- I can already imagine GS reviewer saying something bad about the FPS model... such as "it is different from other FPS!!" or "FPS doesn't suit MGS!" or some crappy excuses :/

I think it will be a 9.0 or better game.

So GS will probably rate it 7.0.

Story will be too confusing or too many things to do will give it an identity crisis.

I know it will get a 9.4 to 10 on every other site except GS, GS will probably give it an 8 saying the story its too complicated, that the game hasn't changed and some other stupid excuse.

now

Amen.

seriously gs will give this game a bad rating because its just more of the same. story? confusing. its got great gameplay and terrific voice acting, but its story suffers an identity crisis. it doesnt know whether to be a shooter or a stealth game. it doesnt know whether to have an engaging narrative or a great game. it has both, but it just cant decide between them. its got lots of variety and all the variety is good! but you know what they say, variety is the spice of life. this game has too much spice.

btw i want this game..

Well, after the Ratchet review, MGS4 will probably score an 8 here.

For me, I have almost zero doubt that this game will be awarded my first ever 10. It'll be the best game of all-time.

After hearing the controls and the way the game plays and feels is completely different and for the better.... expect a 9.5 or a 10.

please tell me where i called them biased? i was saying i disagree with the score, and i believe my argument was pretty logical.

Cry more. Please. So because R&C didn't get the score you wanted, GS is biased? Nice. I'll remember this when the PS3 gets its first exclusive AAA and allthesonyfans are praising the review like its God.

AAA, I wouldnt have bought a ps3 if it wasnt for MGS4.
