Well said
@ HammadTheBeast
I disagree, I think both games have their faults and flaws but there will always be those that love the games despite what game reviewers, journalist or critics think or how low they score the game.
Just like us in the forums it is just an opinion based on their own experience, nothing more and nothing less.
Dude give it a rest
Look if you are going to be so juvenile why don't we look at what Knack scored on Gamespot
40/100 Gamespot (4/10)
Knack's downfall is that it focuses entirely on combat, but doesn't offer enough variety or depth within its system to compel you onward.

I agree if it was just the magazines bias then you would expect an 8 or a 9 out of 10.
Plus if you look at Metacritic they are not the only site who have given it a 7/10
Post Arcade 75/100
EGM 75/100
Everyeye.it 75/100
Multiplayer.it 70/100
The Escapist 70/100
Gametrailers 70/100
Eurogamer Italy 70/100
Eurogamer Germany 70/100
GamesRadar 70/100
VideoGamer 70/100
A little dissapointed to see it only currently having a metacritic score of 61 based on 34 reviews
http://www.metacritic.com/g...
The common denominator that keeps it scoring quite low is due to the rinse and repeat combat system which is such a shame.
Some have actually praised the story
Most have praised the game from a visual standpoint (which is not surprising...
WTF we already knew it can't play X360 games, how is this news???
In New Zealand it is already the 21/11/2013 the date that the embargo could be lifted for Ryse Reviews
www.3news.co.nz is a New Zealand Television Channel news and entertainment website.
less than 15 hours to go until the X1's midnight launch kicks off so can't wait
PS: They haven't done anything wrong they just took advantage of the time difference

You are spot on timotim,
We already know come tomorrow that Ryse reviews will be a mixed bag since some gaming journalist's have been hating on Ryse since its initial review, not once have they changed their tune well at least the majority of those in the "I don't like this game" team.
I'm expecting a metacritic score between 78 - 82 for Ryse and after tomorrow we will know how correct/incorrect I am.
I'm sup...

According so some gaming journalist who have reviewed both consoles well it seems they would agree with you even though the edge is ever so slightly in favor of the X1
This is supported at launch so yes you are correct its just the same as it is now in respect of Twitch
Great news awesome to hear, but author may want to check his article first before he/she uploads it to the website
"Those who are planning to play Dead Rising 3 on Xbox 360 later this week"
This game is not coming to the Xbox 360 ever. It is a next gen exclusive to the Xbox One
somehow it posted my response twice
@ Prime157
You missed the point,
MSN is a global site owned by Microsoft Networks = YES, though MSN NZ is their local domain here in New Zealand.
Though the article is not aimed strictly at New Zealanders, my reply to CPTN MITCHELL's original post stating that the PS4 is $100.00 cheaper, well as my post clearly shows or points out that is not entirely true in respect of us here in New Zealand.
Given that the MSN d...
I'm another X1 Day One gamer the 22nd can't come soon enough. I'm with my mate above me wishing every gamer on every platform the best that gaming goodness your console, handheld or PC can give you.
I take it you grabbed your X1 from The Warehouse man that deal they have/had was sweet
Opps my bad
"A copy of FIFA14 goes for $180.00 NZ"
this is supposed to read $108.00 NZ
This is an article from MSN in my country New Zealand the $100.00 cheaper is not really a valid argument here and this is why
When comparing a standard or day one launch edition of the X1 with an equivalent PS4. Not bundle deals
PS4 = $649.00 does not come with the PSeye and no free retail game (can't really count FTP titles that one can play right now on PC and as from what I can see are not available at launch), especially now DriveClub has been del...
@ GiantEnemyCrab
I'm with you on that one, only 3 more days to go man the 22nd is going to be friggen wicked and this game is going to go off big time.
I'm in agreement Twisted Pixel are great developers so I am sure what ever they move onto after Lococycle will be more in tune with their awesome talent.....though bad scores or not I may still pick up Lococycle just to show some support, who knows what others hate I actually might enjoy.
"Ryse is far from a terrible game, and it’s often a great time. It shows off the power of the Xbox One, and the fighting system is satisfying and dense without being overly complicated. It’s not the best game I’ve played this month, but it’s far from the worst."
