A quick look at the profile page for guy at GameSpot confirms he's just some random idiot.
Not biased.
Just a good old fashioned idiot.
"you do know the ps2 had a tainted past right?"
Don't you EVER repeat that lie again on this site.
And don't you ever dare compare or equate the 139 million selling worldwide PS2 that people have been playing for the past decade with your POS Xbox 360 hardware.
Every clown dumb enough with an Xbox 360 when the RRoD fiasco 'suddenly' started making up stories about how '5 PS2s died on me and my launch Xbox 360 is still working perfectly'.
...
Redo the characters from scratch.
One of the biggest appeal of LittleBigPlanet was the adorable SackBoys. The ModRacer characters are almost creepy looking. Can't see the game having that same broad male/female gamer/non-gamer appeal that LittleBigPlanet managed to capture so well.
A former Microsoft employee hijacking a TV show he works for to do a smear piece on the incredibly reliable PS3 hardware in an effort to do damage control for Microsoft's 54 percent Xbox 360 RRoD failure rate.
There's only one side to be on.
What is so disgusting about this garbage is we wouldn't even be wasting our time with it if Microsoft didn't make their unwelcome entry to the console market and their incompetence in designing reliable hardware.
"Why is Sony so awesome? Why?!"
* Total console hardware design and manufacturing dominance
* Developer focused support that created the greatest console game library in history with the PS2 because of a "We(Sony) make money by enabling you(the console developer money)" business mindset.
* The genius of Ken Kutagari
* Totally dominant first party developer lineup
* Broad and deep support from console develope...
"Good looking game overall."
Your typical mediocre multiplatform game.
Amazing how much better the PS3 version looks, though. It's no wonder though since the 360 is such a hard platform to developer for that the PS3 version of multiplaform games always looks the best.
Not that it really matters since PS3 exclusives are effectively an entire generation beyond multiplatform games like this with games like GT5 running at double the resolution and ...
"GameStop employee"
LOL...
Who the hell is waiting around for Mistwalker games after the junk they've put out?
LOL!!!!!!!
What has it been? Eight years now and Xbox fans are still sitting around in forums desperately clinging to some PC developer crying about how his company can't handle anything other than desktop PC style architectures.
Hilarious!
You would think after all those years of desperate posts thinking they are somehow helping their precious little Xbox consoles and that same tired old garbage doing nothing they would get a clue.

Just a question of how much Microsoft was will to spend on reviews this time.
MGSR THE HD VERSION???
Who the hell would be dumb enough to make their name and avatar from a fake Metal Gear 'action spinoff' game that Kojima has disowned and isn't working on?
It's like walking around in public with an inflatable woman trying to impress people that you're a stud...
"The Blu-ray drive on the PS3 is actually slower in seek and access time than the DVD drive on the Xbox 360."
That is an outright lie.
Hell even that cesspool of Windows/PC/Xbox fans at beyond3d.com know this. The Blu-Ray drive is faster than the 360's DVD in all cases except for when you are reading at the very edge of the disc. In other words in the vast majority of the time the Blu-Ray drive is faster than the 360's DVD.
It gets worse for t...
Microsoft's lack of dedicated servers is what causes games like Gears of War and others to have horrible lag and other problems. Not related to their problems with MMORPGs.
As far as Microsoft and MMORPGs stories like this from just in the past month are all that needs to be said:
"MS foot-dragging on 360 MMOs is “baffling,” says Cryptic boss"
Microsoft has shut down almost all of their first party studios.
They now only have:
Rare
Turn 10
Lionhead
Rare has been a huge disappointment. Lionhead talks big, but delivers less. And Turn 10 do racing games.
Microsoft has no one to blame but themselves for the lack of new and exclusive IP for their console. They should have been building up their first party development studios instead of trying to bribe third party developer...
"M$ sure is in a pickle."
Microsoft is exactly where they were last gen with the Xbox.
Dead in Japan.
Dead in Europe except for the UK.
Once again desperately trying to hype Halo.
The only things different about this gen compared to last for Microsoft are:
1. The appearance of fake sales number sites like vgchartz that Xbox fans embraced because it told them lies about Xbox 360 sales they desperately wanted to be...
IGN had two options if they want to their restore their credibly with gamers:
1. Come out and admit their 10/10 GTA4 was a terrible mistake and review the game without the fanboy goggle on or money hats. And score adjustments to a few other big name titles they handed out gift review scores to.
2. Score Uncharted 2 on the same absurdly generous scale they did with GTA4 - ie. 10/10
Pick one IGN. Your credibility is zero if you make it blatantly obvious yo...
Gran Turismo 5 is almost certainly coming out in November or December.
GOTY 2009 - Uncharted 2
FPS GOTY 2009 - Killzone 2
Driving GOTY 2009 - GT 5
Platformer GOTY 2009 - Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time
RPG GOTY 2009 - Demon's Souls
Easily one of the greatest yearly lineups in gaming history.
Amazing how good they look compared to those awful Unreal Engine characters that look like they are made out of plastic and have very low poly counts and try to fake detail with normal maps like in games like Gears of War.
Here's a fun game.
Take the garbage the idiot who wrote the review has listed above. Apply it to other games IGN has reviewed. Laugh at what the score would have been if game reviews weren't anything but fanboy babble.
Basically this clown at IGN picked 9.5 as the score he wanted to give the game and then worked backwards coming up with inane little complaints to support a .5 point deduction. He knew he could in no way give the game anything less than a 10 for graphi...
Last gen Konami gave Microsoft a real Metal Gear Solid game.
This gen Microsoft couldn't even get Konami to give them an old and downgraded port of Metal Gear Solid 4. Instead they ended up with the joke Raiden 'action spinoff' game that Kojima has nothing to do with.
Kojima dished out the most epic humiliation in E3 history to Microsoft when he came out on stage at the Sony E3 conference and disowned the stupid 'action spinoff' aka Raiden May Cry game and told the g...
