1. A lot of games are short, like BioShock and Dead Space but apparently they got good scores.
2. Are the covenant ever playable in any Halo game?
3. Lol It's a console RTS, what do you expect?

Like I said, you didn't even play the game. Aljosa23

1. They had other things going for them that made up for that. It isn't excusable in HW

2. No, but you wouldn't expect that from a FPS, where you would from an RTS.

3. That's not really a proper excuse.

I think Halo Wars deserves more, but what you're saying is not valid.

I'd rather just stick to using GS. I wonder why this is being brought up again, did a game flop recently or something?Floppy_Jim

It is not just Halo Wars. If you think that, you must not have been here for any other big name games. This has been a debate going on here for some time, years at least.

In time, my friend. :P

I'm pretty sure Floppy was talking about that Gears of War RTS on the 360...:P

No it just wont work. GR and metacritic are variables for example a game can be AAA one week and then 2 months later drop down to A. The only way it would work is if we waited a year (minimum) to see what score a game has. Trust me, just using GS is the best method and although we may not always agree on the review, it creates a standard for sytem wars to use. Getting rid of gamespot, we would have threads such as "Lair is AAAA because of a SDF review!!". thats a bit silly but you get the gist of it.

The only instance when Meta or other review sources can be used is if GS havent reviewed the game yet or wont.

and not to sound like a broken record but we're on the GS forums so we use GS reviews. If you want to use other sources then go to other forums.

This statement should have ending this thread..
