Game reviewers should review games from start to finish. Why?
1) Because that's their job.
2) All other reviewers reviews everything put in front of them. I wouldn't expect a food critic to just review the starter and base his whole review of the restaurant on it.
Reviewers aren't there to get the feel of the game. They're there to review the game itself, every lat bit of it. If the games crap for the first 20 hours this should be reflected in the review and the final...
Why people say it'll be a clone i don't know. DICE know they're respected amongst gamers, unlike IW, so why would they copy and paste? Games can similar but give different experiences. Look at pro evo and fifa.

WTF have you been smoking? Treyarch as good as free radical? The only worthwhile portion of the game was zombies. Treyarch are terrible devs.
Modern Warfare 2 maps are really really bad. MW1 had much better maps. Overgrown, crossfire, ambush. All great maps. Wasteland, Highrise and Karachi. All terrible. MW2 is just poor. Much too easy. Pred, Harrier, Chopper gunner repeat. Heart beat sensors? Who actually thought that'd be a good idea? It doesn't reduce camping, just increases it.

Please don't try and state "facts" you can't back up. With a small amount of research you would have found that:
1) GoW3 outsold GoW2 by a 2.65 ratio http://n4g.com/industrynews...
2) In GoW2's opening week it sold over 700,000 copies http://www.vgchartz.com/gam...

Gotta say, I still think MW2 would be poor without the glitchers. BFBC2 beats it in every department.
Considering MW2's maps are all crap, I'll definately not be buying this. If i want to play Overgrown or Crash I'll play COD4, which I do anyway because it's still better than MW2.
This is like atari getting annoyed at everyone who makes consoles or Sony getting annoyed at MS for making a 360 slim.
Doesn't matter who does it first, only matters who does it best.
I havn't played it yet, and it probably is amazing, but I can't decide whether to get it. I've heard its a short game, and I want something that'll last me. Someone on my friends list bought the game Friday night (8ish) and had got the Platinum by Saturday evening (6ish.) He didn't play through the night or anything, just regular gaming time, and he's not exactly the most skilled gamer. So IDK. Anyone have any advice?
And WTF is just dance still doing in the charts?
How is PS3 last gen? Its the most powerful console there is.
It remind anyone else of Pocohantus?
My favourite game? Very hard. From the PS2 its probs FFX. This gen...Mirrors edge, BFBC, COD4 or Bioshock. Too many games this gen to choose from.
Uncharted 2 is good, but as an all round package...It hasn't got the best MP. The single player is very good, but again, its not the best. (Prefered Bioshock and MGS4's story)
EDIT: @ truth. The difference between the superbowl trophies and medals is that it isnt subjective to opinion. There is a winner and a loser. Media ...
It makes me laugh how fanboys get called up on something then immediately start backtracking.
"M$ iz robbing sonyz ideaz!!!"
"Don't talk rubbish"
"I didnt say anythingz!!"
There have been loads of people saying MS is copying Sony. Everyone of them an ignorant fanboy. Surely 360 slims are a good thing? It gives gamers more choice and a cheaper way to play this gen titles.
West and Zampella should set up their own development team. They turned Call of Duty into the best selling franchise ever. CoD4 and CoD2 were amazing. The only time they dissapointed was MW2. They are more than capable of setting up a new franchise as good as if not better than what CoD used to be.
Dying at the same time you kill someone isn't because of lag. Its because actual bullets come out of your gun. All COD's weapons are Hitscan (as soon as you fire the shot hits, whereas BFBC2 the bullets have to go through the air.
If theres one thing that annoys me its losing connection to the game server. I had like 30+ kills with the XM8 after 30 minutes in the same Rush game. Then suddenly whilst attacking the last base me and all the people i entered the game with were kicke...
IGN are idiots.
They've only made one sh1tty game.
You know what. If Take2 had actually made a game better than it's predecessor then maybe I would have thought differently about this. But the fact is they took a three year old game added a story worse than the original and lost the atmosphere and epic characters. They don't deserve any more money.
Yep, reviewers wont give hyped games anything other than great scores. The big reviewers dont want to upset anyone by giving the games low scores or saying one hyped game is better than another. LBP, Halo3, MW2, Resistance 2, Gears 2, uncharted 2 plus a load of other hyped games got 9.5 from IGN. Reviewers like IGN lack any kind of backbone and its more much hype and perceptions people have of the game before they play it than quality that dictates what scores the game gets.
