[QUOTE="Gh0st_Of_0nyx"]Yeah there credibility it totally out the window :lol:dream431ca
And why is that? Just because someone else likes the game you think they're wrong?
I think he is trying to say that since it's the consoles magazine, that it would obviously give an exclusive game a high score. But then again he could be trying to say something totally different.
[QUOTE="urdead18"]I've played the game, I'm very excited.wzboson
good for you. I was excited after I played the banjo kazooie n&b demo, people make mistakes I played the beta for about 35 hours. I don't think I made a mistake.

If a reviewer writes something the consensus disagrees with shouldn't it discredit them? I understand everybody is entitled to their opinion, but sony fanboys aren't excited because PSM likes, it, but rather because it might be a sign of reviews to come.
this was before the new editorial staff came into place. it's almost like talking about the Cleveland Cavaliers before LeBron or the Chicago Bulls without Jordan. It's irrelevant.

Before you guy's try and act like a smart donkey, Playstation Magazine isn't that biased. They gave Lair a 5/10, Playstation Official Magazine UK also gave Haze a 60. Gl0ry_L0rd
They might be unusually favorable of killzone as this review suggests.
[QUOTE="ninjapirate2000"]Omg lol 9.5 is absurdly high for that game i would give killzone 1 an 8 at best.wzboson
Yeah and I think it discredits the KZ2 10 Why don't you play the game before you make assumptions on how it is. I played the multiplayer beta and I didn't play anything else the entire time i had it, even though I bought about 12 other games then, it was that good. Seriously you lems bash stuff that isn't even out yet. Don't bash a game that isn't out that you never played. And as far as the magazine, that magazine has a new editor-in-cheif that was once the official xbox magazine chief back during the xbox 1 days. He is not biased and it's not the same people who did the killzone 1 review, that was 5 years ago, and the whole magazine team has been replaced since then. This new editor and team isn't biased they gave HAze and LAir a 2.5 so your argument is moot. Now please lem play something first, before putting it down.
Why do you want it to fail? Is it because you don't own a ps3, or because you wish you did but it's too expensive for you so you have to bash the games on it before they even come out. I don't get you lems, every other post you lems bash on ps3 games, while most cows talk about how great ps3 games are, why not you lems talk about how great 360 games are instead of bashing the other console's games, or the system? It seems to me you don't have enough games to praise so all you lems bash the ps3 and it's games. Killzone 2 is great in multiplayer and from what I seen of the single player videos on IGN, they have snippet commentary videos on the first 3 levels, and it looks and plays phenomenal!
It isn't the same magazine, the editors are other, just look their lasts reviews, they are pretty though! anyways I am waiting other reviews (IGN, GT, GS are the most relevant for me in that order)
And why is that? Just because someone else likes the game you think they're wrong?

No because killzone was garbage and in no way did it even deserve a AAA rating.
Based on your opinion. I didn't like Killzone either, but I don't go around telling people they're wrong based on their opinions.
Never said they were wrong I said they have 0 credibility because they gave a universally crappy game a 9.5 because they were blinded by their fanboyishness to sony.
[QUOTE="Giancar"]It isn't the same magazine, the editors are other, just look their lasts reviews, they are pretty though! anyways I am waiting other reviews (IGN, GT, GS are the most relevant for me in that order) I would take GT out of that list they are sponsered by MS, watch the last bonus round, they are all xbox fanboys. They bash the ps3 and it's games left and right, their video prodcution crew is an open ps3 hater that switched the video feeds on xbox and ps3 for burnout, just to make ps3 look bad. They nit-picked on resistance 2 on every little thing while not even offering any critism on gears 2 , and they do this for most 360 games....they are the most known xbox fansites around...just like x-play.

geez no need to type an essay. I just don't want people to be putting this game in the category of MGS4 and LBP as they have already have because of one review, citing the evidence that this source has misjudged the quality of the KZ series previously. If you disagree, okay, but I think you should chill out, I don't think anything I posted was bias

Did you even play the game? You are a known lem, who probably doesn't have a ps3 so how can you give a game a score let alone a 7 before even playing it? You lems make no sense!!! How old are most of you? I am 30 been playing games since the atari 2600 and intellivision and let me tell you, I would never rate a game with out playing it no matter what console. I thought the genesis vs. snes war was bad, it's nowhere near the ignorance that happens in this console war where people rate games bad on the other system when they never even played it, and hell it's not even out yet!
this was before the new editorial staff came into place. it's almost like talking about the Cleveland Cavaliers before LeBron or the Chicago Bulls without Jordan. It's irrelevant. Yep, don't see why people keep making threads about this. people just don't know. I would have too, had I not remembered the big editorial staff change. they used to be called "lemmings", because it was an Xbox guy leading the reviews after the Heavenly Sword/Warhawk/Ratchet reviews came out.
Yeah, you can't listen to those biased sourcesToriko42
Yeah especially since after 08 awards! I don't know how many sites were called that after awards were given :roll: That word flys an awful lot around here doesn't it??!!

I don't see as many "cows" or "hermits" bashing games, most praise the games that are on the system instead of bashing a game from the other system.

Seriously though...If the game sucks once it's out and you played it and don't like it I will respect that, but not before the game is out. And not before you actually played the game yourself. Killzone 2 really impressed me so I am more passionate then usual about it....and that;s unusual for me as I am mostly an rpg guy!
What does that prove. Unless you're implying the OPM is guaranteed to have an equally overlandish review to the sequel of a the game as the prequel. (regardless of who actually reviews the game in the mag) The guy that reviewed K2 is probably a different one from the guy that reviewed K1. This has no effect on the credibility. Show me consistently outlandish reviews for sony games from year to year, then you can start making claims.
[QUOTE="Dreams-Visions"] they're still a PlayStation exclusive publication. as such, their reviews SHOULD be taken with a grain of salt. Cows need to sit back and wait for more universally-accepted reviews to come out before forming a real opinion. Patience. What you said at the end was true but their exclusive publications status doesn't prove anything. They were able to give a game like warhawk a 6 or something. And gave lair a lower review than most.
Yeah, that review is waay off lol. But that doesn't solely determine their KZ2 review to be invalid or non-credible. This gen they have been pretty much spot on with a majority of their reviews (Haze & Lair got a 2.5). It could have been a different reviewer as well. We'll see...
But when OXM gave Gears a high deserving score, the lemmings did not seem to say that source was biased because it was a 360 exclusive? So does that make OXM credible or not?

Ninten007
When did anyone use OXM's review to prove gears is an awesome game? I'm going to go with never, because we never needed to.
