I never liked IGN reviews anyway. Obviously they love DLC as much as the creators do.http://www.ign.com/articles/2015/02/12/evolve-review
WAIT WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YES I WENT MAGESHADOW HD FOR THAT ONE.
As someone who has listened to Vince on a ton of podcasts, the dude is legit and not the type to be bought out or bribed. He's an old school gamer and super super friendly. I trust him. A 10 is sketchy for a game like evolve, but I don't think he was bribed. Also please don't judge IGN as a single entity when it come sto reviews, different people within the company will review differently.It's a big budget title backed by a big developer (2k), so it was only natural that ign would give it a good score.
Upon reading the review I find that they are too positive about this game. The only negative point they had, they shrugged of as a mild inconvenience, while I think a lot of people will find the hours of grinding needed before the full potential of the multiplayer is reached is more than a minor inconvenience.
In the dying light review they say that the game is beter than dead island, but give it a way lower score. That's inconsistent reviewing.
You know what they say, you can't ignorant without IGN. They are paid to review and they will inflate the score as long as they are paid, just checking the recent Evolve review lately with that inflated score is a testament to their idiocy.In the dying light review they say that the game is beter than dead island, but give it a way lower score.

"Borrowing from the old" isn't necessarily a bad thing. I'd buy a resident evil 4 clone any day of the week. Back in the day the innovations in these games were revolutionary hence the higher scores that you think were deserved. But if they didn't exist, these games would still get the scores they got now and you would agree with them because you haven't experienced gameplay like that before. It's how ass creed 1 got 10's everywhere but now you look back and its like a 6 at best. It's all opinion in the end, and a game doesn't necessarily have to make huge innovations to get a perfect score imo. It just has to be incredible and a must-buy.Evolve and Dying Light both did receive fairly high scores. Shame because the games are great but not worth a 9/10.
Back in the days a 9/10 meant revolutionary, Like GTA 4. While they both do things great, it's simply doesn't warrant such a high score. Dying light is what Dead Island Riptipe should of been, while Evolve borrows alot from L4D.
There is nothing revolutionary here, hence not worth a 9/10. I'd rate both of these games around 7-7.5/10 at most.
Developers are getting lazy imo, borrowing from the old and calling it new. Sad thing is most of us are falling for it.
Problem is there is nothing incredible about either game. I bought both games on day 1 and I'm very disappointed in both. To each their own I suppose, I'll be trading in Evolve this weekend and holding onto the credit for The Order."Borrowing from the old" isn't necessarily a bad thing.

I was REALLY excited for this and almost pre-ordered it a couple of weeks ago... until I found out that it contains NONE of the previous DLC. Given that this is the 3rd release of the game they could have at least included a good deal of it. Although I understand they didn't because why lose out on hundreds of $'s per player for those who never bought the game the last two times around and any of it's DLC.New Blogcast ep 153 (Feb.17)

I'd trust an MMA fighter saying they're clean before I believe these reviewers don't take bribes/favor.As someone who has listened to Vince on a ton of podcasts, the dude is legit and not the type to be bought out or bribed. He's an old school gamer and super super friendly. I trust him.

Shadow Of Mordor Borrowed heavily from it and outclassed it enormously."Borrowing from the old" isn't necessarily a bad thing. I'd buy a resident evil 4 clone any day of the week.

Haven't got the chance to play SoM yet. Is there a specific reason not to get it on the PS3? I read vague things like the nemesis system is watered down but nobody went into details on the sites I checked.Shadow Of Mordor Borrowed heavily from it and outclassed it enormously.
apparently theres some frame rate issues too :/Haven't got the chance to play SoM yet. Is there a specific reason not to get it on the PS3? I read vague things like the nemesis system is watered down but nobody went into details on the sites I checked.
I can deal with that.apparently theres some frame rate issues too :/
It's hideous in comparison.Haven't got the chance to play SoM yet. Is there a specific reason not to get it on the PS3? I read vague things like the nemesis system is watered down but nobody went into details on the sites I checked.
I was going to jump on the PSTV until I read that there are numerous lag issues, even when hardwired. I wanted it for something like Destiny on my other TV, but the lag just makes it unplayable.i would think the ps4 version is visually satisfying also
