^ I dunno man, Warhawk has shown it's got the legs. If they drop the expansion pack prices even more, it might get people back into it again. I keep wanting to, since it's a great game, but never have the time....

It will be very hard to beat Warhawk, and I don't think it will. Totally different games. But I know I'll be playing a ton of it *goes back to play more of the beta*.
 
Saints Row 2 is a January 2009 game for the PC so I moved it up to the 360-PS3 column.

Also, Red Alert 3 is a 2009 game for the PS3 so I moved it to the 360-PC column, RA3 is not coming out until November 11 for the 360 so I'll only include the game in the PC statistics for October.

I've been playing a LOT of Order of Ecclesia, it's a great game, I also got Far Cry 2 for PC but I've hardly played it, it didn't absorb me, at least not yet.

Dead Space looks JUST like my kind of game though I haven't tried it yet. I also have my eye on Fallout 3 and Red Alert 3 but I just don't have the time right now.
 
Playin resistance 2 right now... so far its pretty sick, but there are visual inconsistencies with the arting of levels. Some areas look amazing and then some are kind of bland looking. Otherwise, a great game! Can't wait to get off work and continue playing it :)

*checks watch*.....
It's not even November yet!....

Gimme one!
 
Added stats for October, I chose LittleBigPlanet over Bioshock for best reviewed game because A) it has more reviews counted and B) it's a new game.

Technically the PC ended up being best reviewed again but I'd say the PS3 was the strongest platform with 3 blue games (one exclusive) and overall a strong selection of games.
 
SOCOM is getting such bad reviews. I don't really agree with them, it's a pretty nice game. And with the headset you can almost consider it a $10 game. With it's issues, it deserves a 7-8. I never would have guessed 58/100.
 
Updated stats for both months and scores for all games, just 'cause I felt like it :)

Anyways, the 360 doesn't have any exclusive blue games for October anymore because Fable II dropped down to 89, I counted Bully for PC so that brought PC average down to 81 but it's still best reviewed, there were some other minor shifts here and there too and LittleBigPlanet is now the definite best reviewed game because it went up to 96 while Bioshock went down to 94.

I feel it's a little unfair that the 360 and PS3 are so bad because of the inclusion of Golden Axe, it wasn't even a hot game, I just included it because it carries the name of what I consider to be a true classic but it turns out the game never even had any buzz or hype or anything.

Also, if any of you feel a game already released deserves to be added to the list then by all means speak, I'm going to add World of Goo later because it received raving reviews even though it's already released.
 
It's a sad day when BioShock PS3 gets a higher rating than Dead Space. I guess the Disney WOW factor is great for some people. Or maybe it's the promise of a pipedream mini-games every 2 minutes, and the knowledge that there are more Vita-chambers than StarBucks. :eek:

The corrupting hand of the console-centric money-coveting market sadly ruins a lot of games... they are still fun (I had a lot of fun with Bioshock) but you always have that bittersweet taste in your mouth that it could be SO much more had it not been made for the average semi-casual console gamer.

Dead Space is great though, the atmosphere is so well done that it more than makes up for the gameplay flaws.
 
Resistance 2 & Gears 2 reviews are coming in and it looks like its a win for both consoles. The PS3 has had a big 4th quarter with exclusive monsters back to back....don't forget Valkyria Chronicles doing big things as well.



Bless
 
Added scores for Resistance 2, Gears of War 2, Valkyria Chronicles and Sacred 2 and corrected a LOT of release dates.

Sacred 2 is now a 2009 game for PS3/360, Huxley is a 2009 title as well

If you see any other incorrect release date or any other inconsistency, feel free to make me notice.

I'm hoping that MS's payola on exclusives won't be as far reaching now, since the 360's hardware is clearly dated and their past actions inadvertently hurt Window's gaming sells.

The average semi-casual gamer that often refers to themselves as hardcore, so 90% of all console gamers. :eek:

Try playing BioShock after playing Dead Space and see if fun is still in the picture. :) Dead Space can be very consuming, where as BS is a rail ride at an amusement park -- it feels fake, but that sort of thing is fun in moderation. :) Anyways, it angers me GRRRRRRRRRRR, because DS is a much better game.

Did you get your mouse control tightened up?
 
Well now, since Mr. President-Elect has shocked the world and everything is almost back to normal....I have two questions:

Who has Resistance 2 and who's playing 8 player co-op with me?


Note: Awesome game

Added scores for Mirror's Edge (81) and Call of Duty World at War (89), Mirror's Edge did a little worse than I expected but still good and World at War on the other hand did a little better than I expected.

Also Legendary sucks, it has 46, no doubt it'll be November's worst reviewed :eek:

Sacred 2 and Lightsaber Duels are also out today.
 
Wow haven't updated in almost 2 weeks :eek:

Everything is up to date now, there have been a few worthwhile games released since the last update (Left 4 Dead) but most have been yellow games...
