Rock Band - How can games like this get a 9.0?

How can a arcadeish-multi-player game like this get a 9.0 when theres real games out there which have solid single player campaigns such as Uncharted and Mass Effect but yet have no real multi player value to them at all.....makes you think. Does GS favor multi-player games over single player? just look at halo 2 and 3, both have made up for sub-par SP campaigns by having fun multi-player.

toughts?

SSBM was AA so no

Super Mario Galaxy supposedly has a bad multiplayer mode...and look at its score...

Cry me a river.:cry:

Rock Band lets you play through the "campaign" with 4 different instruments.

AND it has multiplayer.

Rock Music = Satanic
Rock Band = Satanic
Lots of People Love Satan
obviously they are gonna give Rock Band high score

just my fifty cents

Because games like Rock Band are... I dunno... fun?

lol come on iwasnt serious, anyways seriously i think this game got a 9.0 coz theres not many games like rock band available....only guitar Hero's and this....so obviously its the best in its genre when there is barely any competition

The people who review at GS are in their late twenties. Just out of college. They still might be into the party favorites.Shomb22

but

They rate based on genre, and for it's genre, it's really good. Also, it is a, "Real" game, who cares if it doesn't have, "Super pwnage lighting effects!", it's fun, it has lots of replay value, and is one of the few games, "TEH GIRLS" will even play.

What the hell XD it looks like a weird emoticon trying to be a normal onePaleo_Orca

i find that smiley funny

It's compared to other games in the same genre........when will people learn that GS doesn't compare games across genres?

ME was compared to other RPG's, while Uncharted was compared to other action/adventure games. You fail!

yea rock band and guitar hero are for pansieskrunkfu2

I have no idea. Especially when the guitar parts are so easy compared to GH3.

$200 for one game is laughable.
