Why aren't there hype threads for multiplats?

For example, Assassins Creed looks like a great game, yet I don't see any hype threads for it. I think it's very childish to only hype exclusives just to somehow try to "prove" that your console is "better" than the others.

Who agrees?

good question. I guess the only reason would be that you won't be able to say "hahahahahaha OWNED because you can't play this game!!!" to someone. I personally don't care about that and i'd rather see what people think about Assasins Creed.

unless maybe they think that there would be too many hype threads if they start counting multiplats, but they really don't have to do it for all of them..

There's a thread for guessing AC's score on the front page right now I think. Sadly, everyone believed it will get a 7.5-8.0

Looks like GOTY to me.

Don't ask me why, though - I've just got a bad feeling about this game...

Me. I don't hype any game that I haven't actually played. I get tired of seeing threads of "GOTY confirmed!", "this version pwns this version", yadda yadda kinda crap on games that are not out or even have a demo out. Just makes people look silly.

Then what do you hype? most of the time a game is reviewd by the time most of us play it. And demos can be deciving

Define "hype" for me. And I agree with you about demos being deceiving-now I know I'm not the only one.....

Well here it means hyping the game for a certain score on GS. But if you mean saying that it is a good game and stuff , then I agree.

I view "hyping" a game as someone saying such and such game will "pwn this or that" or that "this game is confirmed GOTY" etc, etc,. I get "hyped" for a game if it's one I'm really excited to play, but don't come on here talking smack about it. I know this is GS, but my idea of "hype" I guess is a bit different, hopefully that made sense, I'm on my seventh beer.

Yeah, that's the big reason.
