Hmm, some Joker scores in there.

Any particular reason they give SSFIV3D a 6? Can't remember such an obviously contrary score from them in a while.

Dragon Age, I have been 'umming' as to whether to try it as I have enjoyed Mass Effect so much but with this and Edge I'm not going anywhere near it

Fight Night though

They state that the limitation of the controls, due to it being on a handheld hamper the experience and the over the shoulder 3D mode is a gimmick that tires VERY quickly.

Motostorm: Apocalypse- 6/10

So all things that other reviews have praised as great additions then.

Like I said, obviously contrary, seemingly for no obvious reason.

What did they give Dragon Age Origins out of interest?

Around the World with No Money also a Bad Attitude and Stupid Haircut.

Yeah, that can be well annoying.

Another great score for Fight Night, I'm really stuggling to forgive EA for simplifying the controls, but there's obviously a great game still in there so will obviously have to give it a go before completely writing it off.

I still can't believe there's another Dragon Age already. It hardly feels any time has passed at all since the last one.

Just as gooseberry fool as the other two then.

That's a review for the singleplayer, if the rubberband AI is as bad as the other two games then that's a fair score.

However, Motorstorm games are all about multiplayer so that score is meaningless.

Get out of here! Motorstorm is the best off road racer out there, and the latest one is a complete blast.

True, it's so much better than all those other great offroad games like... um...

Seems about the right score for Bulletstorm.

Wouldn't classify it as an off-road racer, to be honest.

Have you actually played any of it online?

yeah that's fair. I didn't think the first two were great at all in SP but if i could take part in any meaningful way i'm sure i would find mp different.

matter of taste again mate.

I don't see how the score is irrelevant.

You saying 'oh but the fun part is the multiplayer and should be judged on that solely' is a ridiculous argument.

Heh.

I bought Pacific Rift purely for the multiplayer and to join in Motorstorm Mondays on here and I know of others that did the same so it's not, really.
