Age of Empires II FTW! Every best game of forever list fails if it doesn't mention AoE2 so this list = win.

Yeah, I don't see how the article's author thinks it's a chink in the armor. If anything, it's one more weapon in BFBC2's arsenal.

It's the same guy? Wow, it really is! It's that Aaron Thomas douche that said R&C sucked because it had too much variety!

Sheesh - people, take off your rose-coloured glasses. This guy is a grade-A douchebag. I want him to take his own advice, give up gaming, and do something that is more meaningful than being a troll. His JOB is writing reviews and crap. If he is so worried about the more important things in life, QUIT BEING A REVIEWER.

It sounded more like pretentious preaching to me.

Yes, there are all sorts of ills on this earth but that doesn't mean we give up what makes life worth living. How on earth does someone's personal story relate to how good a game is? He might as well have replaced the small anecdotes about his fanboyism and hate towards Uncharted 2 with some other obsession and you get the same thing. The message is too general and the saps eat it up.

In all those words, he basically ...

I think 5/10 is too low. ODST is more like 7.5 to 8. If it was $40 from the onset or cheaper, it'd be closer to 8.5 to 9.0.

Considering this is supposed to be targeted towards kids, I don't think they or their parents will care about review scores. They'll just be attracted to the "cute and fuzzy"™ factor and buy it. I hope they bundle the PS Eye with it.

We're talking about the present. Non-Sony fanboys will tell you that Sony WAS arrogant. Expecting people to get extra jobs to buy the $600 behemoth, saying that next gen began when they said it began, etc. etc. I still think that Blu-ray should have been delayed because that was the primary offender for the $600 price tag and we wouldn't be having the Wii taking over.

I think Sony deserved a lot of the negative press it received but companies change. Sony went through a huge shak...

Sorry, but this article is a farce. There are many combinations people search for. If it took that into account (such as Playstation3, PS3, Playstation 3) as well as any more additions (PS3 games, PS3 price, cheap PS3, etc.), then they probably also took into account the various 360 search phrases (XBOX 360, XBOX360, XBOX, 360, XBOX RROD, XBOX Halo ODST, XBOX Live Gold card, XBOX 360 returns, XBOX360 towel fix, and so on).

This "bit*h" happens to be a Naughty Dog developer so she knows more than whatever the hell you know.

They have clarified their statement and said that what they mean is that they have managed to prevent any of the SPUs from idling and they have kept all 6 programmable SPUs running 100% of the time. They have said that there is always room for improving their code but their current engine does use all the 'power of the PS3'™®. It may not use it efficiently so that ...

Sorry, couldn't resist.

MW2 will get GOTY not because it is multiplatform, but because of sales and hype. It will essentially be the same as MW1 with a few tweaks, better textures, better performance, some new game modes, etc. (nothing game changing, like the multiplayer in U2) and even if it is a worse game than U2 (highly likely, IMO), it will get GOTY.

You can tell if you watched the Gametrailers review just how desperate some reviewers are to find flaws in Uncharted 2 and dock points arbitrarily so ...

So, the 360's getting a pedophile simulator?

I'd also rank Mass Effect 2 as #1. I'm getting it for PC, though.

Wait, how is the headset a requirement? That's like saying the PS3 web browser is a requirement or complaining about the value of rechargeable controllers.

You fail.

Reading comprehension helps.

For the most part, people are NOT complaining about the score. They're complaining about the criticism that GT brings up which has NO BASIS. Sure, 9.3 is a good score and all, but without the score, the review just seems like it bashes everything in Uncharted 2 (except graphics).

That is asinine logic. You should not be forced to buy extra accessories and peripherals just to enjoy a game you spent $60 on. Microsoft should dump the Arcade and should have replaced it at the $199 price point with the Pro so that no one would be disadvantaged.

The problem is that there is no actual justification for that score. If they had valid reasons, then I'd say anyone complaining is a fanboy.

If they found the controls problematic, sure. If they found too many glitches to spoil the fun, fine. But to say that UC2 is unoriginal while at the same time awarding 9.5 to a generally identical sequel to Gears of War or giving away 9.8 to a Halo game with basically the same identical gameplay that it had since its inception is hypocritica...

The Uncharted franchise is more original than many other games out this gen.

What other game brings together awesome platforming mixed with 3rd person shooter mechanics? I don't know a single game where you can shoot while you're hanging on a ledge. Was Gears 1 or 2 original or was it a ripoff of Killswitch? Was Halo 1 and onwards not a ripoff of every single FPS on the PC?

GT is a failure website. Also, their video editor is a known PS3 and Sony hater (remember his ...
