Yeah and imagine how much money you'd be throwing away if you played everything gamespot did tell you to play.

The bulk of us are capable of tracking down and reading reviews.

Most also know better than to base our own opinion of a game on anything other than our own experience with it.


Since, I have not played the game, I thought I would throw a contradictory view in.

Contradictory to what?

Me enjoying playing the demo?

:conf:

Because the only thoughts on actual reviews offered thus far was:

I can almost guarantee an average print score of between 6.5 and 7.5, but I think fans of the series will rate it a bit higher.




Regardless, 12 hours to go here... w00t.

Yeah. I am not even sure there is a single site whose reviewers I trust much at all - if anything they at least give you a good idea of what people don't like about games, but in general they rarely echo my own feelings on certain titles.

I *might* trust Destructoid reviews more than others, but even then while I'd say I agree with the majority of them, I certainly don't all the time.

All I know is I love sites like Metacritic. Averages and trends seem a much better guide than long-winded reviews on most gaming sites.

Shame the game is getting average reviews, but seems that poor level designs and repetitive actions are plaguing this game. Im gonna give it a try tho, since I do enjoy the Star Wars story, but gonna give it as much high expectations as a Dynasty Warriors game lol.

i gave up with star wars games a long time ago.

Heading off to pick it up within the hour. :)

Gameplay is as expected, cut scenes are awesome, and some of the environments are jaw dropping (the first mission with Vader is epic - I literally just looked around for quite a few minutes).

I like it a lot, but I like it a lot because it's a solid Star Wars game with a good Star Wars story.

I understand where the 6.5-7 reviews are coming from, but for me it's an 8 (that is, 3 hours in) thus far.

Too tired for any more tonight, will post more after I've gotten a bit more into it tomorrow.
