Thanks for watching! Do you find the wrap-up helpful/streamlined? Do you read our reviews normally or do you prefer to just skim the scores? Is this a paid survey? ;)
I made you type that. I threatened to destroy your copy of Arkham Asylum.
Haha, as we get closer to GOTY voting time you just remind ZT he's a Batman fanboy ;)
(from the cutting rom floor: I edited out a bit about how this does take 10/10 to a new level...but I'm not playing the 11/10 game ;) )
By logging in to your PSN account, firing up Uncharted 2, then go to Multiplayer and select Matchmaking. It auto-enters you for that day by joining an online match!
Oh, to be in Burbank!
I can see the argument for removing it from the fall bevy of games, but this would have been such a great Christmas gift for families - I know I was getting one for my niece and nephews. :( Oh, well!
I hope you said your goodbyes to Syko...;)
There are a number of interpretations and a writer can only control the audience to a small degree, so once you put a review and a score out there you have to be ready to a) stand behind it and b) let it leave, b/c that review is no longer your own once a significant readership grabs hold and does with it what they will!
ZT actually teases me from time to time because I don't like to use the 100-pt scale in my review scores...
I like to think of a distinction between game critics and game reviewers. I think critics in all fields approach their subject matter with respective criteria, and subtract points for particular failings.
As a games reviewer, however, I consider a score to be a "strength of recommendation". In other words, all my scores boil down to how much I'm going to hassle someone to buy, rent or pass on a game. In this understanding and classification, a game reviewer is far more ...
Hey there!
Actually, N4G is user driven so the fate of many submissions is reliant on member approval and/or reporting. There are certain types of reports that fail a submission - among them, Old, Duplicate and Spam.
Reports like "Lame" are opinion-based, and non-failing, and reports like Bad Editing, are reparable and non-failing.
Because N4G is user-driven, mods and admins do not intervene and fail a submission unless it does not meet submi...
The guy that made HurricaneX2 paid such amazing attention to detail in the movements - it was cool what a difference it made watching the combat, you feel like you're watching/part of an authentic battle - well, as authentic as a series of brawls spanning ancient locales can be
The finalists do seem to have something for everyone, which makes me curious, when they are released on XBLA which do you think you'll pick up?
KionicWarlord has it - Magnetic Mind - b/c in addition to the LBP style there's this whole controlling stuff with your "magnetic mind" thing in play.
They were one of 20 finalists, I played the 4 winning games plus 2 others I wanted to try out.
Game is awesome. Romping bambis and fabulous combat = win ;)
This isn't even a valid comparison - Metacritic weights the scores from different sites (the weight of each site is unknown) so extracting a simple average isn't accurate.

Pretty lame use of a calculator to write this piece, they'd have been better off just entering 8008 and writing about that. ;)
haha, what a great read! I think he's wrong about not trying a similar approach today, being gutsy gets the job done!! (even bombing an interview or two) ;)
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
@whothedog - that's exactly what I came away with - there will be more. It's completely reasonable that he's not going to start talking about their next game when Crack in Time hasn't released yet. I just needed that reassurance that they have more stories to tell in the universe.
Totally spoiler-free - and I'm trying to keep the Preview spoiler-free, too.
I hope this clears up some of the big "future" questions for fellow Ratchet fans!
No, D81 is correct. Meta uses weighted averages, assigned to each site and publication. Without knowing the respective weights of each site and publication, you cannot determine the accuracy of the average.
