Anyone esle thinks this guy sounds like Mandark?

Gamespot really does confuse me. Not in the sense that I may think this game deserves higher or lower score, but the fact that it got nothing but praise, no flaws were pointed out, and it still gets an 8 like every other game released recently... maybe Gamespot broke the keyboards so only the 8 number key works?

Why do they keep letting this guy do reviews

[Drstrange]

I don't really disagree with the score, but I am confused on what it needed to achieve a higher score and WHY it was an 8 instead of being lower of higher. I felt the review didn't reflect the score. And speaking of score, I believe they need to go. I saw how Kotaku had their review for Drakengard 3 and it had the best review system I have seen. Instead of a score, they put the pros and cons, who the game is for and isn't for and had it in a way to let the gamers decide. It was extremely refreshing. Plus it didn't entice any hostile arguments. sigh....

Great review, People just need to understand that a review can have no negative and still receive a 8, its hard to explain, but at the end of the day the game is awesome so pick it up when you have the chance.

just finished playing this game and it was awesome.. will play again soon... love the esthetics and combat mechanics once you get used to it..

[KrazyBean]

Why does Gamespot always gush over a game but give it an 8? The same thing happened with Mario Kart 8 and Child of Light...

[pdrozroom]

Just finished the game.
Short but fun and refreshing combat system. 
Mask into Cull (upgraded with ping + void) = one-shot everything including final boss haha

Can't listen to this reviewers voice...

[captainzac]

Such a shame that every time this reviewer posts a review the comments section has to turn into an argument about gender and sexual orientation.

[homedoug]

My only criticisms to this game is the length of the game and the fact that there were a few minor glitches. Besides from that the gameplay is unique and functional, the customization is great and the music blew me away. 9/10 

[Amish_Avenger]

When did Mandark start working for Gamespot?

[FolstrimHori]

I can't listen to this.
Seriously, I cannot. It is unbearable. I give this review a 1/10.

[GhostNoSee]

I'd really like to try it..but does anyone know how long this game is and or does it have side quests?

[orichalchem]

A game with no negatives and still 8/10 ?

What is this, i dont even...

[briepstein]

If anyone's played it, how does it compare to Bastion?

[tristananvilcaster]

Wow.. this game deserves at least a 9.0

[LucyPero]

Don't obsess over scores, people. That's not the important part of the review. I'm actually glad Rev3Games removed the scoring out of their reviews.

[icemanx]

it looks like a good game to me. i don't see why people care of the ratings it should be what you get out of the game so find out how the game is for your self's the ratings is just what they thing. it can be good or bad game to you just play it when you can

[zombiezone]

Guys, get over it. 8 is the new standards of 9 in the past. I'm really happy it got a great score.
