[QUOTE="Zeliard9"]I have the new GI right in front of me. They didn't review R&C yet, at least not in the November issue. Mass Effect got 9.75/9.75, as did both Halo 3 and Orange Box. Ace Combat 6 got 8.75/8.75. Neverwinter Nights 2 got 9/8.5 and PC Game of the month (over the Orange Box, somehow). That's about all that's noteworthy out of the new issue.MonacoX
Could you quote some stuff from the Mass Effect Review? Please?Here's their Bottom Line:
>Concept: One of the greatest science fiction stories ever told, and a new benchmark for video game storytelling
>Graphics: Every second of gameplay offers the visual quality you have come to expect from Final Fantasy cutscenes
>Sound: One of the most memorable soundtracks in gaming. It's inspired by '80s sci-fi, yet sounds like nothing you've ever heard before. The game also features an amazing ensemble of voice actors
>Playability: Functional and fun, but something always seems to be amiss with the AI and balancing
>Entertainment: An expansive quest (18 to 30 hours) that toys with your emotions, and keeps you engaged
>Replay Value: High
To be honest, their analysis of the gameplay seems odd. They said they had a "difficulty in comprehending what's transpiring" in battles. Come on, really? I'm not going to contest the AI issue, since I don't know, but from every gameplay battle video I've seen, everything seems clear and non-confusing.
