Except they did mention Modern Warfare 3 right after Uncharted 3...
Imperial power!
I guess IGN is suddenly no longer "IGNorant" anymore since they gave Uncharted 3 a 10, huh?
Chills!
I didn't defend the score or the reviewer. I explained how Metacritic works...
To all the people complaining about Metacritic posting certain reviews and not others: Metacritic has a list of publications whose reviews they include. This list can be viewed here:
http://www.metacritic.com/b...
They do not pick and choose which reviews to include for each game nor do they try to manipulate the score, raising or lowering it to make a game look better or worse...
"A mere 5 weeks ago Epic and Gears of War 3 set the 2011 record for the highest debut of the year with over 3 million copies sold in its first week on sale. One week later and EA announced that Fifa Soccer 12 had toppled that with 3.2 million in its first week."
That's a funny quote from the article, since Gears of War 3 pulled off that milestone on a single console. The other two titles sold on at least 3 platforms each. Gears 3 on Xbox 360 is still by far the ...

I don't know about that. They gave Gears of War 3 a 10/10/9/10.
Just on this one page alone, I see the game referred to as:
The Elder Scrolls V: Cataclysm
The Elder Scrolls V: Hot Pursuit
The Elder Scrolls V: Severed
The Elder Scrolls V: The Old Republic
Is this some kind of sick joke?!
And only 3.8 GB of data on that disc as well. It pretty much throws any argument out the window about the amount of content in a game versus disc space when a game with over 300 hours of content can fit onto less than half of a DVD.
Yeah, especially with Uncharted 3's "thousands of hours of content".
I thought he meant "Modern Warfare" and I DO know better.
You have no idea what you're talking about. GTA IV's map size has nothing to do with the limitations of any console.
This article is right. Since the announcement of GTA V, there IS much speculation circulating around the village.
You've got to find it humorous that the site he linked to as a credible source to stay away from "these crazy stories" now has this same $5 bill story as its newest headline.

I actually liked that about the game. Sometimes you just want to walk around and be part of the world. Take in the scenery. And with the insane level of detail in GTA IV's Liberty City, there was a lot to see. I hate having to hold the stick half way in other games if I want to walk slowly.
But I'm sure GTA V will handle it just like RDR. It will be like GTA IV where you have to hold A to jog and tap A to sprint, but when you are in a combat situation, you will automa...
Wow! Skyrim has instantly dropped off my radar. Nothing else matters now. GTA V... I can't even believe what I'm seeing. Incredible! There is no other game franchise that can get so many people excited over just a simple piece of title artwork.
Clearly Game Informer rates on their own special scale that goes from the worst score possible being 5 up to the perfect score of 10.
If that's true, then that's great. That's more than Forza Motorsport 3's opening week, and that game went on to sell nearly 5 million units. Congrats Turn 10!
I don't know how the hell Rockstar did it, but Los Santos looks even more intricately detailed than GTA IV's Liberty City. The trailer just goes to show how many light years ahead of every other open world developer Rockstar truly is. GTA V looks like a next gen game compared to the competition.
