    sDon't really know a whole lot about gaming politics..

    But People are legit pissed at them for Giving RE7 a 7.7 while everyone else gave it an 8 at worst and mostly 9s and 10s

    According to a friend, they did the same thing with Doom...but gave call of duty a 9 or something...



    Is journalistic dishonesty present in the video gaming business?

    IGN has been dead to me ever since they gave that piece of GTA IV a score of 10/10.

    I dont get the hate that Mass Effect 3 got. The ending of a game doesn't make or break a game. Besides, they fixed it by expanding, defining and explaning it better.

    The story is important but a game should really be judge in it's gameplay imo.

    They gave the first Watch Dogs an 8.4, and that game is completely ing unplayable. I got bored with Watch Dogs 2 after about 8 minutes, which is still better than the first game I suppose. What did Ubisoft do on this game, accidentally add extra-aliasing instead of AA on all their geometry? Also LOL at Ubisoft making a game about attacking big brother when they're the ones putting always online crap in their games. Have you seen how bad games have to be to get 6 from IGN? They gave The Order 1886 a 6.5.

    The game wasn't a 9.6 even ignoring story; if you do ignore story then you gotta judge more critically on its gameplay as a third-person shooter. The shooting mechanics, especially for a third iteration was clunky (compared to for instance Gears). Online mode was boring and repe ive. Choices carried from other games were in many cases, moot due to redundant characters (alternate Rachni Queen? Really?).

    That being said, I can't ignore story for a story-driven RPG. I'd give the game a 7.5.

    Graphics wise, they skimp on the PC version, it's pretty hilarious. The patches help though.

    Gameplay I heard is the same though

    You are all re s if you use any magazine (especially IGN) employee's opinion to determine if you should get a game. They're all paid off. Read user reviews on the forums to really see what a game is about.

    ah ok

    Yes the XBOXONE version could have been better graphically, but still, nice presentation with the outside view of the stadiums and the club chants

    then why bother? I mean, if the floor is 7, then do a 3 star rating system and be done with it

    I was shocked to learn they were making a Watch Dog 2. Given that the first one was utter and was not well recieved at all.

    Even NBA Live 2016 got a 6. I think they'd have given NBA Elite 11 a 5.

    I played a couple of hours of Watch Dogs 2, which is more I can say for the original.

    Agreed. Steam user reviews are pretty reliable imo
