72/100, they said it was just Halo 2 in HD.

Lies.

Edit: Halo 91? SMG 92? SMG GOTY confirmed?

Gunk are idiots. Wouldn't be surprised if they based that score off an E3 demo.

Yeah, a score with no context and no prior knowledge of how they score games is kind of just like..."Okay, it got a 92...good job?"

Sure thing :

The good

-color palette

The bad
- none

Graphics : 18/20
Sound : 17/20
Value : 9/10
Gameplay 48/50

The only bad thing he could think about the game is that it wasn't there when the Wii was released..

Don't be silly, they're belgians.

At most they're full of beer & fries.


Edit : First French Gamepro get everybody all wet, and now a belgian mag reviews Galaxy.

WTF ?

Do they mention anything that makes it sound like the full game rather than the demos that have been shown?

The majority of points were taken off sound. And since sound is my least important factor, DO WANT!

It is too soon for a review. They probably reviewed it based on the demo that they downloaded through Wiiware

They gave it 17/20 for sound because the sound on their tv was set to mute. It still got a pretty high score for a game set on mute =P jk jk
