There's a hell of a lot I'm playing right now COD4, Orange, Zelda DS plus all the new bits I get for Xmas!!! |

I respect that this is his opinion and everything but it does sound like he just doesn't "get" it. Which is a shame I suppose.
Anywho, it's still mine. |

Expected higher than an eight on this. Should really go back and read the text now.

Excellent review, I guess I'll wait for the PC version next year then. It was a fairly negative review, I guess it needed to be due the vast amounts of hype surrounding it. Still it sounds like if you like Western RPGs and have a 360, you should definitey try it.

Seems that the "green disc" review versions may have more issues than their retail counterparts. Guess we'll just have to wait and see on that one.

Ooooh, "only" an 8. Controversial...
Still getting it. Don't care if the combat's crap, I don't want it for the combat, I want it for the RPG bits and the talky bits and the lesbian sex. |

But if the combat's crap, then isn't that where all of your RPG bits go towards? Just a thought.

Your spelling is worse than usual, bengali.

What an excellent review. The text really gets accross the pros and cons. An eight sounds reasonable given the flaws but this is as close to a ten for me as possible according to the description.

Still buying this even though it's an 8. I take eurogamers scores as a reccomendation scale. Not a perfection scale. I've been reading about the texture problems elsewhere etc. Those things don't bother me as much as other people. Stil cant believe you guys gave halo 3 a ten though. That still bothers me. I take eurogamers scoring with a pinch of salt now. Though the assassins creed review was bang on.

It's always funny when people can't seperate spelling from grammar. ;)

The main story is incredibly short for a BioWare game - having finished the main strand and faffed around a fair bit elsewhere, the game clock said 17 hrs 30 mins. On a speed run, you could easily do it in under 10.
Also, one point I didn't make in the review - remember to keep saving your game. The checkpoints are infuiratingly few and far between, and death can often send you miles back. |

Read like a 9 to me- imo it being dialogue heavy and lacking focus are if anything positives, (the Citadel description reminded me of how they dropped you into Amn early on in BG2 which personally i loved). So to me just about everything but the last paragraph or two was a positive. The technical issues i'm sure i can look past and will hopefully be patched and the combat according to a lot of other reviewers is actually pretty good so we'll have to wait and see there, although admittedly that part of the game has always looked pretty weak to me.
The only major negative to me would be the AI. So reads like a 9 to me and i'm almost certain it will be a personal 10 and one of the best games of the year, if not the best, especially for RPG fans such as myself.
