I know that they are two different reviewers. But reviews should have logic and standards. You can't give a multiplatform game a higher review score on a specific console without explaining why. Also, you can't give a game a better rating when its inferior. Yeah I think metacritic scores are bullshit because some of the biggest gaming websites (such as Nowgamer) are part of it.
At least explain why in the review. They also gave PS3 version of Red Dead Redemption higher points in graphics than Xbxo360 version which in my opinion is stupid.
I didn't know that it belong to Beyond 3D Forums. Anyway I credited the original source on my post.
is ridiculous. Fanboys are destroying the site by doing this.
Platinum Games is the best development house right now. It's a shame that this game will be the last game from Shinji Mikami under Platinum games umbrella (he formed a new studio called Tango). Bayonetta which was created by Hideki Kamiya was outstanding and Vanquish also looks absolutely amazing.
Yes that what I have also mentioned in the article. The game feels empty and lifeless.
One more thing: You have reported the story with three different reports. That shows that you have something against the site and that also show that N4G reporting system is broken. A contributor should only report a story only one time. Nike your reports are baseless and lame.
I finished Killer 7, Wind Waker and Okami and I like the type of games that have a unique and beautiful artistic design over technically advanced looking games. You are getting me wrong. The moment I saw Skyward Sword, I felt that the art style is underwhelming. Then I started to see if there are more gamers feeling the same way as I did. I found a lot. This is purely my opinion.
I mentioned in my article that I liked the art style of Wind Waker and every Zelda game, but Sky...
I said that the game will be great, but do you really like the art style? Go read the forums and see what gamers are saying. Kotaku and gametrailers said also that the art style doesn't look good and in general the game look generic.
Kotaku: As you can see the graphics are okay, but not overwhelmingly impressive. This style of quasi-realism does not look great on the aging Wii hardware.

I don't always write comments here on n4g, but this time I want to criticize you. First of all I want to point out that your bias to Sony side is very obvious, you give all of the Xbox360 exclusives less points than PS3 exclusives or multiplatform titles. You gave Mass Effect 2 9.5 while you gave Heavy Rain a 10 which really something unacceptable. You always try to hype PS3 exclusives but at the same time you always bring Xbox360 exclusives down. Also, you gave Alan Wake 8.5 which is ok,...

It's a review copy. I will post my review very soon.
Replay value in Alan Wake is all about collecting all of the manuscripts in the game, watching all of the tv shows and radios. There are some manuscripts that can be obtained only in nightmare difficulty setting. But what makes Alan Wake so satisfying is the story, atmosphere and the environment. Once you start playing the game, It will be hard to put it down. I finished the game in 13 hours. I really recommend this game for all gamers who love to play a well made thriller/horror game.
it's one of the creepiest games I have ever played. It's scarier than Dead Space and more atmospheric than Bioshock. It's one of the best games this generation.
You are not getting the whole picture here. They are filtering out previews, reviews and articles (opinioned pieces) coming from smaller websites like VGArabia, dualshockers and others. This is a podcast, N4G doesn't filter podcasts. Yes I get traffic from N4G and at the same time N4G get more traffic and page views and that's fine. What I want to say is: There is bias here.
I wanted to write an article about the filter system N4G implemented and post it on N4G, but thought it will get filtered anyway. A N4G admin told me it's a learning system and it need some content before a certain source get filtered. But I don't see articles, reviews and previews from big websites such IGN get filtered. Why the bias? N4G should make the filter option off by default at least or remove this stupid system.
Will take the visuals crown once again when it arrives this year. No doubt about it.
but i don't think that FFXIII deserve 5 out of 5. I'm 20 hours in and while it's a good game it isn't perfect.
This game will have 20 achievements to unlock unlike all of the other XBLA games. Check this out:

and how they review games, even though sometimes I don't agree with them. Great review for a great game.
