Yeah but I can't take xplay seriously anymore (their games of the year show was BS), so off to search for the mysterious other 2 bad reviews then.ma55ter_fett said:

If he had explained why the reviews were fundamentally flawed, like how one of the major complaints GameInformer had was that Predators had to rely on stealth (no fucking shit; really?), it wouldn't sound like Mr. Kingsley was bitching.
As it stands, that's exactly how it sounds.

Even the full game takes a bit on matchmaking, silly you, when you have dedicated servers, it always better to browse. Trust me, browse, it takes about 20 secs, and if you don't connect once, maybe a few minutes, but nothing compared to matchmaking.Reeper0278 said:
"We're also in discussions with Sega about ongoing support for AvP, and also about a sequel to the game," he continued. "I won't say what stage those negotiations are in, but we would love to revisit the franchise. Fox are excited about what we're doing, and we feel we've added value to the franchise."

Those of you saying "you can't disregard scores" are aware that disregarding outliers is pretty common in statistical analysis, because it whacks out the data, right?
This game has been reviewed dozens of times, with most scores falling between 65-85%. those three scores are WILDLY out of synch with the rest of the reviews the game has recieved, and DO artificially drag down the average. They aren't representative of the general opinion of the game.
In that case, it's totally reasonable to ignore them to get a better look at how the game is being critically recieved.

Three bad reviews what about the handful of reviews that are lukewarm at best calling it average or passable at best? It's not like they are a super good game where everyone is giving them a 9.8/10 and some twats are bringing their score down with ridiculously low scores.
The game is scoring fairly low, and 3 outliers aren't going to drop the score as much as it would a game that was overall rated highly.

To be frank, if these are the reviews I'm thinking of, they complained that the Predator relied too much on stealth and the Alien was too fast.uppitycracker said:
If these reviewers think that makes a game about fast Aliens fighting stealthy Predators BAD, then they probably need complaining about, especially if they're making a significant dent in review averages.
Gamespot was another one of the trio. They didn't say anything positive at all about it.ma55ter_fett said:
As well as these three.shaun832 said:
Ah well, yes, they may be outliers, but you have to keep the perspective of the number of reviews the game is recieving and how much influence the reviewer has.
From what I've read uin this thread, the nay sayers have been Xplay, IGN, and 1up.
Those outliers have a pretty heavy influence and a large fanbase; maybe these reviews cannot be excluded as an outlier.

Yeah, I saw that AJ video too and I facepalmed at the reviewer. I'm guessing that reviewer never played AvP2 in his life.thenumberthirteen said:
Man it's almost as bad as the MW2 bashing - I've read a couple of the bad reviews and tbh they all seem like they were written by kids that are scared of the dark...One was moaning the levels were dark and the flash light did shit - Yeah a 701231 lume torch wouldn't ruin the atmosphere much.
Compared to the older games it's not a lot like them which has got a lot of fanboiz crying that it's not AvP2...Which might also be a reason people are bashing it (not being arcade-y enough?)...People have gotten soft with CoD style game play.
