Turn 10? they achieved 92 with Forza 3..maybe 95 is possible with Forza 4.racing1750
Microsoft's devs (we consider naughty dog/insomniac, 2nd party devs, 1st party so same should be for ms's)

- Turn 10

- Lionhead

- Bungie

- 343 Industries

- Mistwalker

- Ruffian Games

- Wingnut Interactive

- Spawnpoint Studios

- Big Park

- Robot Ent.

Microsoft has some of the best devs in the industry and recently has bought BigPark and set up tons of developers.

Hmm...out of that bunch, the only notable company's are Lionhead (First party) and Bungie (Third party). 343 just came into conception, and it's only creation to date is Halo Waypoint. You forgot Epic Games by the way, as they seem to favor the Xbox 360.

Well most of those are starting up. Mistwalker obviously does some great stuff. 343 will be making AAA titles eventually. Ruffian does Crackdown 2. Big Park is probably more for casual titles. Robot is starting up (ensemble revived- ironically MS funds the company.). Nobody knows what spawnpoint or wingnut is doing. And please, Rare makes great games. And turn 10 makes AAA racing games whic many like

MS don't have the quality devs SONY and Nintendo do. Face it.

The only way they'll get such a high rated game is if they publish a game by a thirdparty (Bungie)

RyoXX

By "Microsoft" are you referring to company overall or it's developers? If the latter, then your correct as the output HAS been more substantial by Sony (because of it's very prominent first party studios). They do have Lionhead Studios, who created the Fable series though...

Well i'm talking about Microsoft Games division and it's various development teams, such as 343 industries, Rare, etc.

They don't have the quality to match SONY or Nintendo. MS also don't support them as much as Sony or Ninty.

Also, Lionhead are 100% **** as long as they listen to that complete moron Molyneux. I'm quite confident, I, with no development knowledge (And very little general computer knowledge)could create a better game then him.

lol, agreed. I'm not in the minority of those who actually believe Fable 2 was what "Fable 1 should have been". We still don't have the fabled (no pun intended) "scars that stay on trees until you die of old age!!!" feature, and the child option addition feels tacked on. I feel with Fable 3, they may be able to improve on this aspect though.

Am I the only one who realizes that those are very good games? Or then again... people here aren't gamers. They mostly would rather talk about games then play them

Fable 1 was a good game. I can't begin to name the problems with Fable 2. Molyneux seriously needas to keep his mouth shut for like ... ever. I remember reading a preview for Fable 2, it was one of the reasons i bought a 360 ... boy was i dissapointed.

But yeah, Molyneux needs to die.

I was okay with you until that last comment.

[QUOTE="enterawesome"]The question is: Who cares about scores?Avian005

You should, but it should not effect your own opinion. You can't play sales, and you can't play scores.

Why should I care about scores? I never agree with the critics. I thought Mario Party 8 was a good game, but it got -A. I though Call of Duty 4 was mediocre, but it got AAA. Scores and sales are both meaningless.

Not intended to start flaming (though I think at this point it's inevitable), when do you think we'll see the first Xbox 360 exclusive that goes above and beyond? Halo 3 as of now, still withholds the highest score for an Xbox 360 exclusive, securing a 94 overall rating. From recent memory, the highest rated games currently in this generation (ordered based on lowest to highest) are: LittleBigPlanet, with a 95 Metacritic rating, Uncharted 2, with a 96 Metacritic rating, Super Mario Galaxy with a 97 Metacritic rating, and GTA 4 with a 98 Metacritic rating. As of now the PS3 in comparison to the Xbox 360, holds 2 95+ exclusives to the 360's 0. So...opinions, does anyone believe Halo Reach will finally be "the" game to give the Xbox 360 it's first AAAAE recognition, or...? RyoXX

Who cares? I cetainly don't. Wanna know why? No one gives a flying fadoodle about Metacritic here. We're on GS forums and with that being the case, only GS counts. End of discussion.

Not like games below 95 are bad anyway..... jeez.

When games below 95 stop being god awful amirite?OreoMilkshake

Damn straight! Seriously, I don't see the difference in a .2. Halo 3 is 9.4 and Uncharted 2 is 9.6. Does that seriously mean that Uncharted 2 is DRASTICALLY better a game than Halo 3 in terms of ratings? No. Does it even mean that Uncharted 2 canundisputedly be called a better game than Halo 3? No. Ratings are subjective to people's preferences and the people who rated Halo 3 highly aren't the same people that rated Uncharted 2 highly. I can only start calling one game better than another in regards to review sites like metacritic or gamerankings when the score is .5 or more. That means a significant difference in a game's quality. .2 is reaching

95 plus? I seriously doubt it. Gears the original came the closest followed by Halo 3 followed by Gears 2. All of those games had at least 80 reviews and when you get that many it is so hard to stay above 95 unless you're a game made by Nintendo!

I haven't enjoyed any of the games you listed above 95, so i hope the 360 never gets one.

What exactly do you enjoy then? I asking only because those are some of the best titles to grace this generation of gaming. If you don't enjoy them, you must be a pretty unhappy gamer.

I doubt it, but Reach has the best chance at being the first/last.

You're spamming. That doesn't have to do with anything the topic at hand, nor the subject. Your post is completely irrelevant. C'mon, atleast ATTEMPT to reply with something illegible.

LMFAO

Reply with something illegible.

GamerX2311
Just wanted to say that Insomniac has only ever made games for the Playstation franchise....they choose to do so and can choose to go anywhere else at any time they choose. Naughty Dog, on the other hand, is NOT a second or a third party developer. They are owned by Sony. Therefore they are part of Sony...they ARE Sony.

When there's as many Xbox-branded mags and websites as Playstation (ie bias pretty much carried LBP +U2 to a 95+96 respectively).

Wait people are making fun of TC for claiming to play a ME2 demo when in reality there have been people (including myself) that have played a ME2 demo?

Is there a link to this thread? Because I don't find it hard to believe that someone has played a demo of it because I did. (looks really good graphically but I want my lady shepard).

OT: Probably never but its not that big of a deal. whats the difference between a 94-95 really? Same reason I'm glad GS got rid of the .1 scoring system. Because WTF is the difference between an 8.9 game and a 9.0. (and don't say .1 because thats just so stupid and arbitrary.

But... that's not true? I don't understand.

Edit: Nevermind, didn't realize you weren't counting 9's.
