I personally thought that The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess on the Cube should have gotten a 9.5. That game was awesome.  Instead GS gave it an 8.9

Virtua Fighter 5 review made me wonder if they play the games before they review them or how much they are really loyal to M$ since they do sign their paychecks.

I've disagreed with many (TP, MGS3, THPS3, Red Steel, SSBM)

But perhaps the most glaring is Mario Kart 64.

Scores should not be an average of scores given to arbitrary categories. Scores should be given for a whole game, because graphics and sound may matter less for one game than for another and so forth.

Every xbox and 360 AAA, they're all overrated.

But on a more serious note: THPS3.

Deus Ex. No 10.0? Blasphemy!

Other notable ones are MGS1 and 3, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles, Xenosaga 3, and Mario Kart 64.

No, that's how GS reviewers work, and we accept that for their reviews. But when you ask another user how he would grade a game, you should respect that user's method even if it differs from GameSpot's.

Metriod Prime Hunters. I dont care about the overall score, even though that was hotly debated. It would be changed, but that's the way it goes. The graphics score threw me. Yoshi Touch and Go got the same score for graphics! Stay consistent!

Well I was about 11 when this game was released, but I seriously didn't like the review for The Legend of Dragoon.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3, Metal Gear Solid 3, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Mario Kart 64, and Super Smash Bros. Melee.  All but THPS3 should have been higher.  Hawk should have been lower.  Does it deserve a 10?  I think not.

Forget Zelda.  6.8 for Excite Truck is a travesty.  It's an arcade racer that does it better than most of the stuff that ever hit the arcades.  Excite Truck has the Buddha nature.  It rewards practice with prowess, and this process is good and pure in a way seldom seen in other games.  The tracks provide opportunity for you to exercise your will on the truck limited only by your own skill.

In recent memory, Crackdown (7.8 ). Thinking way back, I'll have to go with Mario Kart 64's score (6.4).

Spyro 2. 8.6 is a good score, but for all that the game [almost undeniably] gets right, it should at least have been AAA. It's my favorite game ever.

For a game that literally millions of people LOVED,

GameSpot's 6.4 for Mario Kart 64 seems a little ridiculous.

update:  THPS3 and chrono cross seemed stupidly high. THPS3 didnt deserve a 10 imo and CC was nowhere near good enough as chrono trigger (which in my mind means that if cross scored 10, then trigger deserves 11 :S)

mario kart 64 deserved more than what it got n all as did double dash

Shenmue 2 for Xbox.

Got a 7.SOMETHING, I believe.

Happens to be my favorite game of last Gen. (although Halo 1 and Jade Empire are close).

Okay, maybe all three tied.

In all seriousness...this is completely true!  The game was vastly underrated.  Should've been in the 8s.

Had a loooong post written up, hit the *&$##&&#&##&&#ing punkass Back button on my laptop and lost it all. UGH.

Anyway...

Midnight Club II for PS2. I was obsessed with the game and thought it deserved at least a AA. Jeff G-Man gave it a 7.2 or something and I hated him for it :P In the end though, I agreed with him. 

TimeSplitters: Future Perfect was another one. I had so much fun playing that game it should have been against the law. It should have also been against the law to give it an 8.2 or whatever it got. Loved that game.

This gen, definitely Resistance. 8.6 is a great score, sure, but it deserves at least a 9.0. PDZ got a 9.0 and its nothing special. 

GS RFOM score 8.6, user score 8.7, average critic score 8.8. 

GS PDZ score 9.0, user score 8.5, average critic score 8.1.

"One of theeese things just doesn't beloong..." 

Resistance doesn't seem like anything particularly special when you first crack it open, but when you play through the whole campaign once or twice, then get into the online, you realize its a fantastic game. Should have really gotten AAA.

Wow.  I used to play the demo for that game wheni was younger and liked it a lot.  I would say low 8.  AoE2, well, that's different.  I would give that AAA definitely.

I have to agree with whoever mentioned Spyro. The first two games were by far the best platformers I have ever played.
