No, it isn't that it doesn't count, it's that I hadn't read it at the time I posted this topic since I don't get any gaming magazines. And oh, you were talking about OPM UK's review. Nevermind then. Disregard my previous post.Kermi said:

I changed my avatar to a Helghast stormtrooper yesterday so people would know that I'm not a 360 fanboy (look at my IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD topic).Pyronox said:
ACtually, no. The PS3 is capable of so much more than the 360. Look at Gears of War 2 and compare it to Killzone 2. The guys at EPIC games say they pushed the 360 to its limit with Gears 2. Sure, the 360 can probably do better, but probably not much better. It will never get anything approaching Killzone 2. And about that "graphical comparison" thing... I was too busy being depressed to laugh at how pathetic it is. Surrealist is such a blind fanboy, it's just sad. Halo 3 is by no means the "360's Peak Potential."Pyronox said:
halo 3 got 100 person in early reviews
so did far cry 2 ( i love far cry but it doesnt deserve a 94 from pc gamer)
world of goo got an 80 in early review ( only game that deserves a 9.9)
and who really cares i love lego star wars and it schould get a ten if i reviewd it but it doesnt matter wat i care or wat people care its wat u care!

It's times like these that I wish I had a PS3... looks amazing and will probably live up to the hype.
To be perfectly honest, I don't see why people care so much about the scores that games get in reviews. All that I care about is that it's a decent enough game that I can enjoy playing it and not finish it in some crazy time. I can't wait to be able to play it, unlikely as nobody I know actually has a PS3 afaik, most are 360 fanbois which is why I bought one. Want a blueray player so may actually buy one but who knows.
It also recieved a 5/5 in the official playstaion magazine review. Imo, official reviews never count for me, they all seem to give very biased reviews, ignoring flaws and longetivity. Happens on all consoles though.
It looks great, graphics look most likely best i've seen seen on a console etc. I just hope gameplay issues weren't forsaken for graphics/atmosphere. I still can't take any FPS on consoles seriously, I despise playing them with an analog stick, I don't mind third person shooters or action games but FPS make me want to drill my own head in with a tooth which I have plucked from a squirrel. Too used to using a mouse I guess. But then again i couldn't play the game on my PC.
PS Comparing Halo 3 to Killzone 2 graphics wise. Really, how low can you go.

I'm just very skeptical about games given that high a score. I've been disappointed by games with scores like that. The first Killzone's quality just fuels my skepticism towards the second. Due to high scores being "bought" I also tend to disregard any sort of score based system given by reviewers, a simple BuyIt/RentIt/LeaveIt system the Escapist used along with a reason why is a much better approach in my opinion.Ago Iterum said:

And I highly doubt there was a minor issue that was only worth a tenth of a point. The 10 point scale is such a crock.Credge said:
Also please remind me why everyone is suddenly going so ga-ga over one friggin review.
No. I don't know why but I just don't. Sure it has relatively pretty graphics but it's not gonna be that movie they showed at E3. Not gonna revolutionize the FPS genre.
