After reading the last page, it's all starting to make sense now, regarding Gies and Polygon.
Is there something beyond the Killzone review that makes you say this?
Man i was neutral to gies but now.... just :lol:
Lolygon giving TLOU 7.5 is more shocking to me than the Shadow Fall score.
I think reading the Eurogamer and Destructoid reviews of the game makes it sound pretty awesome and between this and Battlefield I'll be more than happy for a couple of months at least
i am with you on that. i even stated that killzone 2 is among best fps current gen.
Point i was making that. Both killzone 2 and Crysis were loved by critics and gamers.
Killzone 3 and crysis 2 had mixed reception. crysis 3 was mostly disliked by both critics and gamers. and now KZ:sf is hated by critics lets see how gamers respong but both are on downward trajectory
A lot of justification going on over poor scores. I'm guessing you all played the game?
I'm not interested in comparisons. I don't give two squirts of piss about XBone scores. They could all score straight 10s and I wouldn't care. PS4 is my console of choice this gen and I only care what Sony is doing.
As great as the software lineup has been on PS3 this year, its at the opposite end of the spectrum on the PS4 launch.
Infamous - delayed
Driveclub - delayed
Knack - who gave this the green light?
Killzone - ho hum...but its pretty to look at in 1080p and 60fps
This game is sitting 7 points lower on Metacritic than Perfect Dark Zero.
I have no idea how to feel about that. I feel kind of embarrassed for Guerilla, I guess.
Polygon makes Kotaku look like a decent site, and that's fucked up.
Here is the recap from Evilore himself:
Anyone - and I do mean anyone who listens to anything that blithering idiot Arthur Gies says about any subject has no credibility.
Killzone may be tripe, but nobody will think that due to Arthur Gies stamp of approval, that's for DAMN sure.
I ignore scores in general, always have.And you'll ignore the good scores too because you've.... played the game?
I don't care what the reviews are saying. I will enjoy this game.
Kotaku is actually on their way up the ladder.
Alot of good articles lately.
This can't be right. Anybody else confirm, he admitted this? Because this would literally DISGUST me.
That is how reviews are in general. Nothing surprising about that.
Gies is to MS as Battenhousen was to Sony.
He played multiplayer before reviewing. Reviewers never play that much of it. I mean I don't see any reviewers getting to level 70 in cod before they write a review.This can't be right. Anybody else confirm, he admitted this? Because this would literally DISGUST me.
i wouldnt want to play another killzone game either
Battenhousen was a total Sony fanboy (and still is), but he's no Arthur Gies. Arthus Gies is a straight shitty person

It's a bloody joke of a review and it's not even because of the score lol
ps: if Anyone has trouble understanding why people say geis is fully of shit, watch their ps4 life stream. You couldn't find better MS PR even inside MS
Imo the killzone sp games had really good level design and memorable setpieces...Allow me to review Killzone.. Not just Shadow Fall but any Killzone game
Pros - A graphics tour de force - Rock solid frame-rate and good multiplayer - Some Good campaign moments.
Cons - The story campaign is basically pretty average and nothing you will remember.
Why buy it? Multiplayer. It will keep you busy until games like Destiny and Infamous Second Son come out. It will also impress your friends with the amazing graphics.

Not taking into account a proper analysis of the biggest aspect of the game into their review/score is how things are done generally?
Can you elaborate a bit? I'm not giving those clowns a clic..
Thanks!
Yes? Lots of reviewers dabble in multiplayer and are done with it. Especially before the game is out.
Arthur being the reviewer pretty much guarantees its going to be a great game.Polygon 5/10
He played multiplayer before reviewing. Reviewers never play that much of it. I mean I don't see any reviewers getting to level 70 in cod before they write a review.
It's a launch game. I know a lot of people were expecting high 80's low 90's but it's a rushed launch game.
What is a lot worse? The multiplayer?I am watching the Polygon stream right now, and it's a lot worse then you think...I'll leave it at that.
I couldn't watch too much of it..it's hard to stomache such blatent fanboyism

and more. I suffered through some of their opinions and comments about remoteplay just now. No more
No.... don't leave it at that. What is he doing/saying. Give me exact quotes.I am watching the Polygon stream right now, and it's a lot worse then you think...I'll leave it at that.

Arthur Gies is also the author of these essential literary pieces of excellent critical analysis:
This is irrelevant to the matter of the legitimacy of this review, it's just to emphasize that Arthur Gies is incompetent at what his function as a game reviewer and writer actually is.
So Titanfall is destined to get a shit review score since there is no single player game?
Dunno if your claim about lots of reviewers doing it hold any merit or what's it's based on. But for a game whose primary component is the MP experience that should be the most closely examined aspect.
If an outlet is not doing so then that review is as useful as 'insert clever comment about something not useful here'
