Different reviewer people. You can't expect every reviewer to score games the same, even on the same site

Its really surprising. I figured it would get a bump but not this big. The funny thing is that this is missing features from the Wii U version. I'll still take it over the others.

Zombi is actually one of the few REAL survival horror titles that isn't early access and uses jumpscares sparingly.

There is a consistency here, it's that the game was on PS4, so score bump.

It's comical at this point that people still can't or choose not to understand this.

@ladyblue: they can't lol. It's like we have kids running around and covering their ears and screaming lalala we can't hear you because we are right.

Look at the lems too in this thread playing conspiracy theories . Ps4 winning has made them insane.

Feverishly latching on to anything at this point. They even harass reviewers now.

@isturbo1984: No, they're re-releasing the game because they didn't make a profit due to poor sales of the WiiU, not because of "poor controls" (the controls were never bad in the first place).

I almost have a feeling you never truly played ZombiU considering while playing that game it never felt out of place looking down on the gamepad to reorganize your junk or whatever. Not like it was intruding gameplay because nothing was really happening on the TV except for your Character just sitting there shuffling his/her bag. It just sounds like you went out of your way to make the game seem like a chore because you didn't like looking away from the TV.

@LegatoSkyheart: Actually, it doesn't sound that way at all. You're reaching because you are having trouble understanding others don't have the same opinion as you. I've given no indication that I haven't played the game. Nobody but Wii U owners really know of the type of gamepad controls the game forces on you. And again why would I not have tried this game? It's not like there are tons and tons of Wii U exclusives. You're trailing off-topic though.

On the contrary. I went out of my way to support this game. I heard so many good things about the game when it was released. And I heard it was really immersive. When I played it, I was disappointed with the general gamepad controls. This was actually the Wii U game that made me sign away the gimmicky, oversized ipad controls for good. The entire time, I thought to myself that "this game could fix everything if it just had Pro Controller support." well... now it does. and it's only $20. I guess I could by the Wii U version for slightly cheaper, but that wouldn't be money well spent.

Actually this game does have Pro Controller support. FOR THE MULTIPLAYER.

But like I said before the game was first and foremost designed with the Gamepad in mind. That doesn't make this game less troublesome like you claim it to be. You present an opinion I give you mine. Welcome to the Internet

The game never deserved a 4.5 on the Wii-U. Pretty solid, fun game. Should have scored at least a 7 back then.

Different people's opinion, perhaps? For example, were I a reviewer I would have scored the original Gears of War an 8, while @nyadc would score it an 11.5.

GameSpot favors Sony its really sickening. The wiiu version deserve a 9 especially if they gave this version which is missing features a 7

Ha. What a joke. The game isn't a gem by any means but I think a 7 is a fair score and should've been what the Wii U version had gotten in the first place.

GameSpot and they're half-assed reviewers completely lost me whenever they didn't give Bayonetta 2 GOTY last year. Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not saying the game deserved to get GOTY (it certainly wasn't my personal GOTY.) However, when you fail to give it to the only game that scored a 10 last year, it completely contradicts the site's scoring system.

Then they turn around and award two games a 10 this year which, for all intents and purposes, mean jack shit according to the way they handled the 2014 GOTY. I think it's safe to say that GameSpot is no longer a relevant critic.

well the thing is, the GS review score is done by 1 person. GOTY is done by the entire GS staff I believe, so it's not unheard of that a game that gets a perfect 10 also doesn't get GOTY. Perhaps the reviewer felt it was a perfect 10, but the other staff members didn't. And also, a perfect 10 means "Prime" not "perfect". As I recall from the GS explanation a while ago, it pretty much states that the game is the best in it's genre. You can have a game that is perhaps the best slot machine collection ever and it could get a 10, but it may still not be as fun or as ambitious as GTA5, it just happens to be the best of its class in its respective genre.

Haven't trusted GS reviews since Beyond 2 Souls got a 9. I think Kevin was the most reliable reviewer here.

LOL so true tho.

That game Beyond getting a 9/10 is fucking insanity, especially when it was the same piece of shit reviewer that gave TLoU an 8 just a couple months before.

Lol, funny stuff in this thread. Anyone consider that it's a budget title on ps4? That'd certainly bump the score.

I don't think Gamespot scores work that way. Gears of War is a budget title on the Xbone, after all.

@PurpleMan5000: They do take cost into account. I believe that came up a few times last gen.

Gears is also a lone game where other HD collections have included 2 or 3 games for the same price. (Albeit usually not fully remade)
