Rev3 review sounded more like a 2/5 lol. Disconcerting that Kinect registers coughs as voice commands, to the extent she turned it off. Still, if your after mindless fun, it looks like it could be the ticket.

I nearly did. Perfect
That's not how reviews work. Different genres, different platforms.

Wtf is this? Two very different games, people comparing games all over the place its ridiculous. Edge have said theres a day one patch that smooths out the frame rate.
Some people so butthurt.

Different reviewers and some people actually play games for fun, not for tech analysis... imagine that!
Yeah considering they share so much on common.
I mean both have ...... errr male protagonists?

It's not surprising if you've played Killzone. The game is beautiful but very frustrating. I'm still enjoying it somewhat, though. I expect similar feelings for DR3.
Not a fan of Polygon, but that score is right around what it is getting nearly everywhere else and even lower in some cases. Just maybe underneath all of the dreaded Xbone doom and gloom it actually has some pretty good games at launch. Just sayin'.

Yeah, fuck any review that gave Dark Souls anything over a 6 because it ran like utter dog shit when it was released! Stop being ridiculous, poor technical performance hampers peoples enjoyment of games differently and different people enjoy different things in games.

Apparently a day one patch that fixes the 30 frames per second is bullshit , so I'm told... Thoughts?
I was wondering the same thing.

Nothing! I said nothing!
The Polygon score is below the metacritic score.
It still looks fun.

People were going to shit on Polygon no matter what score they gave.
kz should be the high rated title of the lineup....for this reason..
It's noises in general for DR3. Zombies hear you if you make a noise, so not surprising.
Would the command "Xbox stop listening" work in games too? Makes it wait for the "Xbox".
Still, it is getting many scores between 7-8. Which is my point. It is not an out of the ordinary score that stands out from the rest.

DR3 is "next gen" the promise for a new and brilliant experience, not a poor 720p/20fps "thing"
You can't compare it with Dark Souls, you just can't.

From the Joystiq review "I had multiple game crashes and even discovered a repeatable glitch on the final boss battle in Overtime mode, where skipping the pre-fight cutscene would cause both Nick and the boss to fall through the game world"
I hate this, yes games have bugs and issues but crashing, ugh.
Yeah, because a 7.5 is so far and away above what everyone else is giving it. Seems to me you already had your mind made up.

I'm on my phone right now but I'm starting to wonder what the Dead Rising 1 originally get review wise?
8s and 9s if I recall.
"The Globe and Mail (Toronto)
If its a true next-generation game youre after, look no further than Dead Rising 3. Capcom Vancouvers gory, over-the-top zombie thriller is a technological masterpiece that amply showcases the power of Microsofts new Xbox One console."

Edge said after day one patch it was 30fps, others have said it chugged but I'm unsure if they got day one patch or not.
Yes
What. It was sarcasm, hence "/s" and the reply literally telling you that it was making fun of a post like that.

Also considering I like KNACK and Killzone and some of them got rated lower than Dead Rising 3 I think I'll enjoy this game overall. Time will tell.
The best looking 360 game (still better than that) with about 10x more stuff on screen and a huge open environment.

To be fair, a couple (not all) of the lowest reviews for Killzone are pretty hilarious. Lolygons from someone who didn't want to review the game and hates the franchise (also a Microsoft funded site), along with the Globe and Mail (who gave DR3 a 10/10) who's main complaint was that the game was "needlessly hard". All in all these two games are reviewing fairly close. But if you're interested in either, ignore the reviews and play it for yourself. It's pretty evident user impressions are often wildly different from critic impressions.
Metacritic is at 85 for DR1
