Not the last paragraph. The whole freakin review! It is Gamepro's review with the score changed.
Original Review:

I call horsesh*t and the article, review and any future crap from this source should be immediately dismissed, regardless if it is for XBox 360 or PS3.
The review in PC Advisor is a duplicate review with a different score. They didn't even bother to change any of it. You would think that they could at least write their own opinions? This article shouldn't even be posted nor should the score count as it is obvious that they did not play this game which would be a pre-requisite to reviewing it.
Here is the ORIGINAL review from Gamepro
A news article about how Blu-Ray is dying! It's inevitable.
Ninja Gaiden Sigma was awesome for the PS3. Although needing the reflexes of a teenage speedfreak to get through some of the levels was a bear.
is when in the hell am I gonna have time to game!?!? SOCOM, R2, LBP, Dead Space and Fallout 3... ugh...
Seeing that I only have PS3s I will be getting R2. Although my neighbor has a 360 so I will be playing Gears 2 as well this month so I get the best of both worlds. I will also be able to make my own comparisons.
BTW as mentioned in another post I played both Gears 1 and R1 and loved them both. Although if I were to score them I would score R1 only a .1 or .2 higher due to the perception of size the levels gave me vs. the Gears levels. Otherwise both games as far as graphics...
Looked great although I give a slight nudge to the R2 multiplayer vids. The Gears 2 multi looked cool although it was mostly showing 1 vs 1 where the R2 was showing tons of critters to shoot at a few times. Graphically both are stunning games and will make their respective console owners very happy campers.
CNN the heart of the liberal media and the only people that cried when Jack Thompson got disbarred.
INCREDIBLE! That is by far the most awesome thing I have seen done with LBP since the SoTC level and the calculator level.
When people base their assumptions on reviewers scores. Here is a simple solution. If you have only one of the consoles get the game for your console. If you have both buy/rent both and play them to make a decision. You can always opt to go to a friends house who has the other console and play on his to see what its like and get an impression. Me I have PS3s so obviously I will be getting R2 which I am really looking forward to after the beta. My neighbor has a 360 so I will be able to ...
Gamepro. Unfortunately this site is taken somewhat seriously by people.
I simply quoted your article
"MLB The Show 2008, MGS4, DMC4, Bioshock, Socom: Confrontation (Disc Version), Soul Caliber 4, Pixeljunk: Eden, Warhawk (Disc Version). That’s it."
Then you mention you had to delete Siren, Bourne and Elefunk. So you had a bit more installed so it was a bit misleading when I first read through it. In any case I do agree to a point where the large mandatory installs are becoming a bit ridiculous. Granted for a download only g...
Alrighty people. Let's see where this is wrong.
From the article:
"MLB The Show 2008, MGS4, DMC4, Bioshock, Socom: Confrontation (Disc Version), Soul Caliber 4, Pixeljunk: Eden, Warhawk (Disc Version). That’s it."
MLB The Show 2008 ?
MGS4 4.6 gig
DMC4 5 gig
Bioshock ?
Socom 3.5 gig
Soul Caliber 4 ?
Pixeljunk: Eden ?
Warhawk w/ expansions 2.0 gig'sih?
So that's 15.1 gig so far that I kno...
The mistake they made that no one noticed is that they released it and people bought it!
amirite?
the PS3 will equal if not surpass the XBox 360s installed based by the end of 2009. This is simply due to devs getting more comfortable with the platform. Examples of this are Heavy Rain, Killzone 2, MAG and GT5 for starters. This has been true of all Playstation products since the PS1. Look at games like FF VII on the PS1 vs. Jumping Flash. For the PS2 you have the same examples to go by with GoW 1&2 as well as GT4 towards it's later years. Now with the PS3 you have Killzone 2, Wip...
Please don your flame retardant suits and prepare for the roast.
This is pure and utter flamebait, nothing more, nothing less. How about before the flames start both sides are all fueled up with 25+ reviews under their belts. Better yet... how about just play the damned games!
Are still busy playing the game and having fun! Sorry that was just too easy to take advantage of. Anyway, my guess is that the reviews are coming in slower due to the overall scope of the game as opposed to Gears 2.
OOOH NO! The sky is falling! It's only the umpteenth article from an over opinionated talking head. Blu-Ray is growing in share daily and the proof is in the pudding. More Blu-Ray releases daily, 300% growth in England, stores expanding their Blu-Ray selection areas. Now let's get on to the next big headline.

It is still a good game from what I am hearing. I guess the question I have is it a HUGE difference from the original Gears? I have played through Gears and enjoyed it ALOT. Now I have to go pester my neighbor to rent this at a minimum to try it myself before passing judgement.
Damned near broke my games fund. Warhawk Expansions, SOCOM, Bio Shock, Fallout 3, R2, LBP, GT5P, MStorm2, Star Wars:TFU and MGS4.
Now with 2009 coming and the new batch of games, I fear I will have to sell blood or even a kidney! ;) In any case 2008 was great and 2009 looks to be even better!
