Now we know why Sony's profits are down so much,they must be paying IGN a ****-load for these biased reviews.The PS3 didn;t have an AAAE on GR until MGS4,now I find out that IGN have handed out about 6 AAAEs to the PS3 in the same peroid.

IGN's reviews have little credibilty.

Something isn't right over at IGN.

They consistently overate PS3 games.

Someone needs to investigate.

Didn't have a AAAE before? what is NGS?::|

NGS doesn't count,seeing as its a rehashed XBOX game.

so the main ign review gave it a 9.

there you have it folks. AAA jrpg for ps3 right there. enjoy

superjim42

We are on IGN? This is Gamespot only Gamespot reviews count on System wars. I really don't think it'll get an AAA here, it'll be a great game, but not AAA (I personally don't care about reviews)

This took me by suprise. I thought the demo was to simple, but then that is a demo. Well if I get round to it I might pick this. I'm not really hyped for it or anything, so I will probably wait till I see it cheap. Besides probably won't be out in Europe anytime soon.

[QUOTE="locopatho"]IGN suck, they give out AAA scores way too easy. And not just for PS3 either. robobie

Of course a person with a Xbox 360 and wii would say that

They give AAA to anything and everything. Wii and 360 games too. They suck.

Funnily enough, it started off as a 360 exclusive but after some kind of disagreement between Sega and MS, it became a PS3 exclusive. So I can't ever imagine it coming to the 360.

I remeber hearing that it was originall planned as a 360 exclusive but got cancelled before anybody even knew about the game and they then made it a PS3 exclusive for some reason, not sure if it's true but if it is it could make the likelyhood of a 360 verson less likely.

Just played the demo on PSN and I have to say this is by far the best home console JRPG I played this gen. It's honestly as good as the best stuff on the DS

I haven't played Vesparia or Fable 2 yet though

Yes indeed....

And as far as i'm concerned, IGN is a more reliable site than GS. If you pick GS reviews over IGN...LULZ.

But what the heck i'm talking to a hard core lem... sense is worthless



Then go post to their forums,we go by gamespot scores.

On IGN, yep.

I used to like them, now I see the truth. They tell you what you want to hear.

Nintendo fans want to hear that Zelda, Mario, Metroid are all AWESOME!!!! All AAA!

Pro Evo fans want to hear that the new Pro Evo is good instead of a stagnant rehash. AAA!

PS3 fans want an awesome RPG, seeing as how all they've had is ports of 360 ones til now. AAA!

I'm not judging this game as bad, I'm judging IGN as bad.

I am surprise with the score IGN gave. I really thought the game would receive 7.0-8.0 from playing the demo. IGN also gave Folklore 9.0 so the score might be totally different when GS reviews it.

istreakforfood

In metacritic the game have a 8.8 score it's close to the 9.0 from ign, don't you think

Sometimes I wonder myself. Can critics really see straight through hype, or are they just the same as everyone else? When I see words like, "Immersion", and, "Innovation", being thrown around, I really have to wonder why critics are using publisher hype words.

that is a great attitude to go by. At least more people are trying to think for themselves. Rather than scores telling them what they should like. But regardless valkyria chronicles is a must buy for me ... mainly cuz i absolutely loved the demo.

i played the demo and felt it was kinda lame, 7.5 for me based on the demo, it was lame but at the same time i had a little fun and it seems like its a game you need to get used to
