WHERE IS Mario Galaxy ?

 

[deadhorse32]

It has to be said : Where are THE RUMOURS ???

It has to be said : Where are THE RUMOURS ???

Didn't 1up.com already post most of this month's rumours?

Also SMG was reviewed by Shane, Jeremy and Shoe.
They have reviewed it but it didn't make the issue.

Jeremy's score is a 9.5

Listening to Shoe and Shane on the EGM Live.. their scores will be very similar to that.

 

[justjohn]

nvm

 

[reilo]

3x 8.5? Really? Don't fucking tell me, no MP.

It's 1Up/EGM. They like to take off points for stupid shit. 8.5 is respectable though. I fully expect 8.0-8.5 to be on the lower end of the spectrum.

 

[ggnoobIGN]

Fire Emblem: 9,9, 8.5

 

[mr stroke]

I like how Blacksite Area 51 and Timeshift got around the same scores. A match made in mediocrity.

+1
Who's smart idea was it to release those turds during x-mas??I think they would have sold a ton more in Jan/Feb 08

 

[ethelred]

It's nice to see such good scores for Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. This is one of the best SRPGs ever made; Intelligent Systems has outdone themselves and it is hard to see how they'll top this masterpiece.

 

[Y2Kev]

Uncharted :\
Mass Effect

 

[GeoramA]

So Uncharted's getting an 8.5 from 1up I presume? I guess that's the highest they're gonna score Sony games this gen.

 

[tanod]

The consistency of the Uncharted scores actually make me feel a lot more comfortable about picking it up. Can't wait.

 

[skip]

along with rock band, mario galaxy didn't make it in time. summary of that one: "ossum."

Didn't Ratchet already score higher?

Dude, you've said countless times that only Edge and Eurogamer scores count! These don't even matter to you! Stop stirring the pot!

 

[Loudninja]

Mass Effect

Umm what?

 

[Darkman M]

Why no galaxy's review? Anyone else notice egm has been late with alot of big game reviews lately? Uncharted is making it harder for me to resist getting a PS3 until MGS4.

guarantee it to be the average score.

 

[Gigglepoo]

1up gave Ratchet an 8.5 also.

And to GeoramA, since all three reviewers gave Uncharted an 8.5, 1up will as well.

Shane gave Heavenly Sword a 9.

I'm speaking for skip here but I'm pretty sure it's because Nintendo didn't give them Galaxy in time.

 

[VASPER]

Blacksite Area 51: 6, 5, 6
Kane and Lynch: 7.5, 7, 7

How the fuck did Kayne and lynch get better reviews, i was hoping that Area 51 was good guess not.

 

[Obaid]

kane & lynch review on 1UP today, uncharted tomorrow morning.

1up reviews uncharted: 7.0

- The cover system is stolen from Gears
- The animations are not real, atleast we dont find them real
- The guns are not balanced
- It plays in jungle, it was used too often
- there are tearing and frame drops, for that reason graphic sux
- it is on ps3

 

[Tideas]

Too colorful.

lack of gray. 1up and EGM loves gray.

 

[farnham]

Fire Emblem, companions walk
The endless path together.

In the wavering shadow of spite,
Our home is faced by the oncoming spear,
Engulfed in flames.

I keep that unforgettable day in my heart
And now rise up together with my companions.

Fire Emblem, our bond shall be never broken.

We hold fast to protect tomorrow
And the one who awaits our return.

Fire Emblem, light gathers on the flag we unfurl.

Fire Emblem, we gaze upon the multitude of stars,
Gripping our blades.

If we do not bring light to the darkness in these lands,
The shooting stars will soar over a wasteland.

Fire Emblem, on whom does the morning sun shine
As she climbs over the edge of battle?

 

[Dante]

Didn't Ratchet already score higher?

R&C was an 8.5

If that any indication, Uncharted is gonna be AMAZING

TimeShift will sell I think. They've been advertising it like a big Holiday title and the TV trailers are actually badass.

People will buy it. Stupid people, but people no less.

As for Area 51, well, it's a sequel of a pretty popular game. It'll see decent figures.

 

[DaCocoBrova]

As much as I was hoping K&L to be the shit, I knew IO would drop the ball. Damn shame.

 

[Psychotext]

Solid scores for CoD4, ME, Uncharted and Fire Emblem (wossat?). Thanks op.

 

[AstroLad]

3x 8.5? Really?

Yeah, exceeded expectations I guess. Way to go Naughty Dog, looks like it's the quality solid game we've been hoping for.

IOI rules, whereas Midway Austin does not.

Uncharted is going to get an 8.5...

 

[Speevy]

Seriously, what's wrong with Uncharted?

Guarantee you not.

I'll wager your immortal soul that 1up gives Uncharted higher than a 7.

 

[Littleberu]

Seriously, what's wrong with Uncharted?

It's beautiful, therefore it must be good!

 

[gofreak]

Uncharted :\
Mass Effect

Over a total of 30 points, there's two points between them..so there must be a very fine line between that :\ and ...

Great scores, I'm most looking forward to them both.

 

[AltogetherAndrews]

Didn't Ratchet already score higher?

I think Ratchet got 8.5, 9 and 9. The Uncharted reviews might be spot on, who knows. I'd say that judging by the demo the scores seem awfully generous, but then I'd have to start watching my back in my own camp.

I just want to know if it got docked based on a lack of MP so that I can bitch about that. It's my favorite bitching stone right now.

 

[Dyno]

Seriously! Kane and Lynch has looked phoned in from Day 1. Must be something surprising in there.

 

[Visualante]

Seriously, what's wrong with Uncharted?

Not enough repetition.

Also that Geo Wars score is quite high for what it is. I might have to call off my endless trolling of it

 

[bud]

an 8.5 is higher than i expected from a gears of war that takes place in the jungle and has some added every now and then platforming

 

[Costanza]

What are the pros and cons for Blacksite? I've been looking forward to it.

 

[Obaid]

I'll wager your immortal soul that 1up gives Uncharted higher than a 7.

well we will see, microsoft own some part of them. How could they give a ps3 titel a good score?

 

[Y2Kev]

I wanted it to be really awesomesauce. I'm just overreacting. I'm sure I will still love it though.

Classic.

 

[ToyMachine228]

The concept of the multiplayer is pretty interesting. At least it's different. I don't remember what was so great about it but...I remember reading it and being impressed.

 

[Holtz]

........ :/
This thread is already going in a bad direction.

 

[skip]

K&L has some good story, good dialogue, and some really neat environments/setpieces.

not enough Lynch insanity, though.

 

[Segata Sanshiro]

well we will see, microsoft own some part of them. How could they give a ps3 titel a good score?

So you're taking my bet?

My dark lord Bernie will be quite pleased.

 

[TheWolf]

Fire Emblem (wossat?).

how dare you.
