Should GS even bother reviewing Wii/PS3 titles anymore?

Considering they seem to be content shelling out AAA scores to all things shooter on the 360, it's pretty obvious at this point that the only games they enjoy include a shotgun.

I don't buy the Bias bit but some of their overall review quality and consistancy has gone downhill since greg kasavin left as senior editor. I also think the new .5 system is a joke and the little review icons they award it just screams casual because a legit review should be read not glanced at. needless to say I used to go solely by GS reviews when it came to whether or not I would buy a game I hadn't played now I sort of average out their reviews with ign who gives out some odd scores sometimes but at least they usually give a good text review of what the game is about.

you need to be stupid or under 10 years old to not see how much bias GS is. 3 years ago, I used to trust thier reviews. now I never trust them with any non-FPS review. and lately they have been under-rating alot of PS3/Wii games, just because you dont controll a leg-less, shotgun carrying player.

Halo 3 got 9.5-10 on most sites but9.5 from GSis bias.

Bioshock got 9.5-10 on most site but 9.0 from GS is bias.

The orange box got on average 97% but 9.5 from GS is bias.

What I think deserves *insert score here* is irrelevent. What you think of GS's credibility should be your main concern.

If you think they're spot on, or even in the ballpark, you should probably rethink your position. Although if you're a 360 fan, I don't expect you'd be dissappointed with Gamespot's attitude as of late.

I just got finsihed playing Heavenly Sword, and I think it is slightly underrated here. Obviously MP3 and Zelda Tp were as well. Alot of other games fall into the very close to the GS score range imo. RFom was dead on if you ask me and I own the game. If any recent title was underscored it was Bioshock.

I could say the same to you. You still believe that, despite all of the evidence saying otherwise (gamerankings,etc), there is some sort of overwrought conspiracy against Sony and Nintendo (mostly sony as I have noticed). it's ridiculous. And sorry, I don't associate myself with any particular console or company. I just enjoy games. There are some good games out, but I have noticed that there is consistantly less quality games being made on the wii and ps3 platforms in comparison to the 360. This is my opinion. Deal with it. I swear, the only ammunition that many people have these days is calling someone a blind fanboy just because they have a different opinion than theirs.

Me liking the 360 = bias? Sorry I'm not a fanboy. I agree GS get it wrong sometimes, I don't agree they are completely wrong and can never review a game right.

Lair, heavenly sword, war hawk and many others have been reviewed well and close to other sites. If you think they have no credibility show some proof, there must be something you can show us right now that points out bias crap other than the same old PDZ, MP3 and Zelda crap. If they have lost that much credability there must be more than 3 damn reviews out there proving this..

Wow.

I mean, really...Wow.

Well, hey, who needs intuition when you've got blind faith?

I could say the same to you. You still believe that, despite all of the evidence saying otherwise (gamerankings,etc), there is some sort of overwrought conspiracy against Sony and Nintendo (mostly sony as I have noticed). it's ridiculous. And sorry, I don't associate myself with any particular console or company. I just enjoy games. There are some good games out, but I have noticed that there is consistantly less quality games being made on the wii and ps3 platforms in comparison to the 360. This is my opinion. Deal with it. I swear, the only ammunition that many people have these days is calling someone a blind fanboy just because they have a different opinion than theirs.

Still blind?

Give it a few years. You won't see clearly until you've been given a reason to, and if you're a 360 fan, you won't see any reasons to for the rest of the gen.

Open your eyes, man. They're underrating every game not on 360. Every. Last. One.

Maybe you should open your eyes. With the exception of MP3, gamespot has been spot on. Hey, its not their fault that the PS3 and the Wii aren't releasing high caliber games lately.

Wow.

Name 5 AAA Wii and PS3 games then.

That's kind of the point, there, slick.



I mean in your opinion. What games on the Wii and PS3 are being treated so badly? MP3? Zelda? Wow that's 2 out of about 200 reviews this year, anything else?

What I think deserves *insert score here* is irrelevent. What you think of GS's credibility should be your main concern.

If you think they're spot on, or even in the ballpark, you should probably rethink your position. Although if you're a 360 fan, I don't expect you'd be dissappointed with Gamespot's attitude as of late.



Me liking the 360 = bias? Sorry I'm not a fanboy. I agree GS get it wrong sometimes, I don't agree they are completely wrong and can never review a game right.

Lair, heavenly sword, war hawk and many others have been reviewed well and close to other sites. If you think they have no credibility show some proof, there must be something you can show us right now that points out bias crap other than the same old PDZ, MP3 and Zelda crap. If they have lost that much credability there must be more than 3 damn reviews out there proving this..

You're always going to be a fanboy with that attitude. So long as you think GS is right.

[QUOTE="user_nat"]Or just maybe, the 360 has better games.Michael85

Nobody said the 360 games were overrated, slick.

Oh, I see. So just Wii and PS3 games are under rated.. hmm

PS3:

Games rated higher than AA at gamespot: 30 (3 AAA)

Games rated higher than AA at Metacritic: 29 (1 AAA)

Games rated higher than AA at Gamerankings: 30 (2 AAA)

Result: Gamespot over rates.

Wii:

Games rated higher than AA at gamespot: 28 (3 AAA)

Games rated higher than AA at Metacritic: 7 (3 AAA)*

Games rated higher than AA at Gamerankings: 13 (3 AAA)*

I don't think they have VC games listed.

Result: Donno, hard to tell with gamespots VC titles.

360:

Games rated higher than AA at gamespot: 80 (10 AAA)*

Games rated higher than AA at Metacritic: 71 (9 AAA)

Games rated higher than AA at Gamerankings: 80 (12 AAA)

*Hard to count to be sure.

Result: Game spot around the norm.

Why are we the ones blind?

Wii and PS3 are still young...

PS3 and Wii will have many many many AAA's before the sun sets on this Console Cycle.

Apparently you've put enough time into your response to convince me that I've gotten under your skin. Good.

Maybe now you'll stop defending them and start thinking on your own.

Proof? What, you want me to post more scores to counter GS's scores?

Yeah, 'cause that makes sense.
