it deserves at least an 8. nuff said. I haven't seen much wrong with it (just the navigation, I have seen that sometimes blows) Stop comparing it to Simon's Quest or SotN, maybe the follow-up to this will be that good. (I've heard it sets up that this game is gonna be the first of many) But as it stands this is technically a new series, and an amazing first entry, so IGN shouldn't have reviewed it based on the "older series".

30 fps, dumbed down combat, and 1.5 gig mandatory install (for a 5 gig game)on PS3 version confirmed. W00T!
.../s (if you couldn't figure it out)
my Crapcom boycott is going to be running strong well into 2012.
Gamestop "Teir 1 day 1" deal...
utter bs, so the kids who don't have gamesstops get fucked over as everyone else has access to stronger weapons just because they went to a different store!? Fuck that.
If hearing "too many" positive things about a certain console upsets you, you're a fanboy.
I already have Heavy Rain, can't wait to play it with Move, but how long does this fucker take to charge!?
'cept I ain't buying anything they make. borrow it from a friend or rental if "Capcom" is on the front. I haven't seen one game from Crapcom that justifies an installation... Not a one. They don't make games that are actually demanding on the tech, so what is this half of the full game needing to be installed bull?
how about I borrow your wife/gf and "share" her with a bunch of people on the interwebs? I mean you still get her back, I'm not "stealing" her or anything.
The lame excuses people convince themselves to use nowadays...
Much like Comedies don't win the best picture award at the academy awards (Seriously "The Hangover" deserved at least a fucking nomination!), racing sims don't win GOTY. If LBP2 doesn't win GOTY then game devs around the world should just quit trying and just start working for Activision to help pump out COD sequels... Shit Bungie's already getting a headstart.
Mario Galaxy 2 is the only other game that deserves GOTY over LBP2 that's been relea...
It pisses me off too, BUT: COD, Guitar Hero (as long as Rock Band stays relevant and continues to innovate, GH will be there to copy them and sell to dumbasses who only buy "the popular one"), DJ Hero (It sells not COD numbers, but enough to where it won't be dieing soon), Bungie (Seriously that's guaranteed 5 million sales regardless), and Blizzard (guaranteed 8-10 million sells) They have a future, it's a dark and gloomy future (for us) but it's a future (that will...
They're scared cause the cheap phone has better software than the expensive eye toy.
the games at launch for kinect were eyetoy games, and remember what happened last time sony made a game this gen that was only playable with motion control? (You know, didn't give you a choice?) The game was called "Lair" and the reviewers just refused to give the game a fair shake, just because of that approach. Sony patched the game so it's now playable by normal means, but oh no, the game is still crap in their eyes (even though it was never THAT bad to begin with, now si...
Kratos would be proud, but he would disembowel him first.
You know what to do Capcom.
Haven't seen a 360 game who's graphics are on Uncharted: Drake's Fortune's graphics. The 360 has yet to surpass a 2007 PS3 title. Commence the stealth disagree's and report as "Spam".
Remember there was footage of XIII proper looking this good before it was announced MP. check the link.

some gamers may be too young or their short-term memory (or is it long term) might be off, but EA used to be dispised... like universally. Activision used to be awesome (with gamers... like universally... seriously) they've basically traded places. EA still pumps out madden every year, and people are excited for Black Ops (it looks good, you're stupid too say it doesn't)coming right off of MW2's lack of playtesting. Hell, From Software used to make shit games and Demon's S...
if you say new tech wins because it has a fitness/dancing game over the tech that has shooters, platformers, RTSs, etc. You wanna start being the voice of the casual gamer? Fine, send your resume to Yahoo games. GTFO of N4G.
But they'll have a BS excuse like "MS promised us that Kinect has a lot of potential so we have to give it a 9, because you never know it COULD turn out really good."
I'm happy I'm not the only one taking notice of the lack of quality in Crapcom lately. Funny how the money hungry eastern devs (crapcom and Square enix) haven't been making much money by westernizing their games into the ground.
land of the giants archstone gets repaired... A level with worse enemies than giant defiled ones would be frustrating as all get out. Any other King/Kingdom can make a deal with the old one, and BAM, the story of DS2 is already laid out.
you're right MGS3 is better than MGS4, and MGS3 was made on what system?
And when Mario introduced shooting (Sunshine) it was weaksauce compared to R&C:UYA. Mario is good at just doing mario, let's not get ahead of ourselves.
