8.5 is a little too generous dont you think? This game is mediocre at best. I literally played 4 hours and sold my copy.
I just didn't understand the storyline, it was more confusing than MGS4. I don't understand the love for this game to be honest.
"We are seeing more and more articles that are below par"
Because they disagree with your opinion? If you have such issue, stop approving these articles, report them, and stop coming to N4G. Complaining won't solve your issue. If you want to make such change, how about write your own articles?
I apologize if I seemed "personal". I had no intention offending you.
"what a joke this site is becoming"
This is the only article of its kinds on Console XP. I don't know what you mean by "becoming" when this site never posted articles on N4G before this.

Not true, Pokemon never had nintendo support their MMO. Activision owned the IP during that time.
Next time do your research.
as for an mmo being made by nintendo it wont happen. they dont like the idea over there of people stuck in a room all day not communicating they prefer people to meet face to face. this is the sole reason why nintendo will never make a pokemon mmo even though it would make them millions its just due to values.
@Abash its a bad article because your favorite games aren't on the list?
Those games you listed suck (in my opinion)
Killzone was too blurry, brown and generic
God of War 3 was the worst of its series
Infamous 1 or 2?
The article doesn't suck but I think ConsoleXP has the worst taste when it comes to PS3 games, they are a Xbox fanboy website if you look at their review history
Yeah infamous should be #1 in my opinion. Those listed games are horrible. Valkyria Chronicles?? you have got to be kidding me, that game is horrible! it lacks RPG elements, free roam and gameplay tactics.
Heavy Rain shouldn't be on that list either, quick time events aren't innovative in my opinion. The story was a mess, it was so hard to follow.
MGS4 shouldn't be there too. I mean, come on, Kojima even admitted he screwed up with MGS4 by adding...
There was no point disagreeing with me...
I swear, this game is one of the most overrated in history, everyone is raving about the graphics. The gameplay looks so uninteresting and bland.
Completely agree with you!
Bethesda should make the Final Fantasy games!
Square's biggest failure was luring to the casual players. They went downhill after Final Fantasy 8 and that's a proven fact.
The reason JRPGs failed this gen was because Square sold out. Once they betrayed many fans by going multiplate, most of Final Fantasy's fans converted to Bethesda fans.
That is why games like Skyrim are so successful and in my opinion, Skyrim does what Final Fantasy 13 should have done.
it's because you were doing it wrong. The Vita version is better than the console version because of accessibility.
Why would I pay more just to get a console version when there's basically no difference.
Edit:
Wow, Console XP scored the console version a 9/10 and the vita version a 7/10??? What the... they are the exact same thing. this is the problem with journalists, they bash new hardware because they've expected too much. Thi...
environment? It would only hurt the environment if the manuals were plastic since plastic doesn't dissolve. I don't understand why people are giving you agrees... due to your uneducated remark.
Manuals stopped because gamers never read. Even old school gamers of that 90's that played Zelda, mario and God of War never read manuals. Those old school titles were too simplistic to even need a manual.
manuals where never needed in the first place. Something called the internet? So, this article makes no sense at all... they make it seem like gamers ever cared about manuals.
The only manuals needed are console setup instructions.
@Deadpool
Console XP is known for better reviews than this. It's the writer that sucks.
I think the serious sam series is one of the most stale and overrated games this gen and last gen.
It's like the God of War series, they try to make gore "cool". this isn't the 90's buddy. God of war games were fun back in the 90's but the times have changed.
haha what's with people making the last of us their e3 game of the year? A generic uncharted clone? REALLY?????
I remember the days when video games were about gameplay and didn't focus on visuals. Naughty Dog has really dropped the ball this gen in terms of fun factor...
no one really cares..... after Rage. I don't think I would even call him a developer anymore...
Sony fanboys are legendary. lol
I'm in the beta and I can honestly say I am purely disappointed. The game literally looks exactly like the PS3 version. The game has been in development for 3 years? What the?
