I'm lost by this comment. There aren't any Hardcore Kinnect players since its not out yet...
Or was it a failed attempt at seeming cool and informed?
Game is incredible - sure sure there are bugs but I've gotten bugs in all my games hell even Uncharted 2, GoW3, Mass Effect 2, Halo: Reach, and Heavy Rain gave me bugs that made me have to reload - no big deal, that's life.
I don't get why people are upset about Hardcode mode giving you nothing more than an achievement - I mean its an optional game mode for those of us who actually want some kind of simulation - 100p or a Gold trophy is more than worth surviving...
Meh, I'm lost on why it even matters. Saying that Move is a massive success is ridiculous - saying its sold out everywhere, now that makes sense. 1 million sold regardless of to who or by who is neat for a first time item but fanboys (on both sides) need to chill out and play some video games (something they don't ever do).
That's like saying that Ratchet and Clank's world is taken from Sonic the Hedgehog - and that Sonic's world is taken from Alex Kidd in Miracle World - and so on and so forth.
I think BioShock's world looks more like the world of Bayonetta than Ratch & Clank. The style of the buildings and the time period work well regardless.
Double the quests, double the size of the world, and increased what you can do - bugs aside I'd say this is worth a 8 or 9 just for the 100 hours you can spend without ever going near a quest. 60$ expansion - no...
Wow you're correct, a game that is hailed as the best Strategy game ever made and it walks away from these guys with a 7 - which by their terms means its terrible or weak... I'm not sure whether the site is reviewing games low to make a point or because they're far too jaded to play video games anymore - perhaps they should stop and breathe.
You are absolutely correct!
I just never understood why Reviewers and so called journalist go through the motions about "1 to 10" if they only use 6 to 10 and anything lower is complete trash - why not simply elminate that.
I always preferred 1Up.com's method of Grades as you said - it does make more sense because its only A+ to F
To aid those who can't figure out scoring:
Out of 10...
1 - terrible
2 - less terrible
3 - not that terrible
4 - flawed and playable
5 - this is technically a medium. This would say a game is AVERAGE but most reviewers have no clue what from 1 to 10 means.
6 - slightly better than average
7 - solid game
8 - great game!
9 - excellent title
10 - as close to perfection as c...
If you don't want glitches and errors I would suggest installing the game to your Harddrive. Once done the game is pretty smooth. I went 7 hours with it uninstalled and it was a bit choppy at times. I installed it and went around 4 hours now and its smooth as baby skin - with BBQ sauce...
That's called innovation dude... At least in the Corporate world it is - I don't know where you've been but stealing is the oldest trick in the playbook.
In terms of profit PSN will never catch up to XBL. Regardless of how anyone feels about their approach to online, Microsoft knows how to make money - I doubt even raising Live's price is going to do anything OTHER than make them tons of money.
Because fanboys have nothing better to do - as none of them have ever physically played a video game since buying their console. They just go on about how great their version is - if you want to see what FO:NV looks like look at a PC Screen Shot, other than that they really are the same.
On the upside its one of the better games ever released soooooo graphics don't really matter too much when theres 100 hours to run free.
What does any part of this article have to do with Microsoft?
Failure to Comprehend :(
I'm loss on how discussing GT5 and their 60FPS dropping due to a little strain, the article, or Kaz have anything at all in common with a competitor.
Man, fanboys are crazy.
@boing
Stop it...
Other games have more than cars and tracks... They usually have you know other mechanics and whatnot...
Ironically Killzone was lackluster apart from visuals and Uncharted well you aren't allowed to speak ill of Uncharted - needless to say I had more fun playing Uncharted 1 than Among Thieves for some reason.
Does anyone commenting know or understand that Kinnect is launching for casuals, kids, and mom? Seriously guys stop with the "no Hardcore DOOOOM!!" stuff because its sad that you don't understand what Microsoft is doing nor how much money they are about to make - oh man are they about to clean up. Kinnect cost almost nothing to research or develop, its pretty much sold out everywhere, and every girl on the planet wants her own 'Skittles' now.
For the...

You know what happened to "good ol' Squaresoft" They fired their creative talent and left the company in the hands of an artist who managed to make EVERY game he developed Kingdom Hearts...
They really need to rehire Sakaguchi, forgive him for "trying something new" and let him reclaim "his" series. With him back Mistuda, Watanabe, and Uemetsu will follow suit and return - not to mention Tashiro.
Opinions folks...
Best game I've played this generation is Fallout - so that's one opinion. Secondly I enjoyed Mass Effect and a lot of other RPGs more than Uncharted because I prefer RPGs over Action - crazy right? Yeah I know I should be stoned.
And yeah I think UC is a little more overrated than ME
