Re: Gamespot - 8.5

How could they possibly rate them both the same? One is 60 FPS and one is 30. Doesn't really make much sense to me. Everyone I have talked to also has said that it ranks well above an 8.5...

Re: Gamespot - 8.5

Seems odd they're the same, you'd figure smoother graphics and a higher frame rate (noted as a negative in the PS3 review) would warrant at least a .1 difference.

Xbox 360 should've got 8.6 instead

Gamespots reviews are good but their ratings are crap. Their ratings almost never seem to pertain to what they actually say in their review. Oh well, I will check out IGN, they usually give the better rating and review.

Re: Gamespot - 8.5

More then likely they were too lazy, and basically just copied and pasted the review, besides the framrate issue, and was in a hurry, and decided to keep the review scores the same.

They only go by .5 ratings incriments, so they obviously didn't feel the FPS difference warranted bumping the PS3 down to 8, or the 360 up to 9.
