PSM UK - BiA, TFU, Bioshock PS3 and More... - Sep 20, 2008 14:26

Bioshock: 93%.
As fresh today as it ever was, Bioshock's an essential PS3 play.

Pro Evolution Soccer 2009: 88%
Sterling footy action but the lack of new ideas is starting to grate.

Brothers In Arms: Hell's Highway: 70%
Inconsistant, but the tactical play will appeal to some.


TNA iMPACT!: 69%
A sillier and simpler game than Smackdown but a viable alternative.

SBK08 Superbike World Championships: 54%
Ugly and uncompromisinly tough. One for bike fanatics only.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed: 59%
This is just another mundane Star Wars game to throw on the pile.

Pure: 75%
You'll love it at first but Pure soon becomes far to familiar.

FIFA 09: 83%
The best FIFA yet, but EA are still a few goals short of the title.

Mercenaries 2: World In Flames: 76%
Technically weak and slightly scrappy but tons of simple fun.

The Last Guy (PSN): 80%
Small but perfectly formed arcade for a bargain price.

PixelJunk Eden (PSN): 76%
Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian: 37%
Hail to the Chimp: 43%
NBA Live 09: 63%

PSP Games

PDC World Championship Darts 2008. 43%
International Athletics: 71%

0-29. Rubbish. An absolute stinker and an insult to gaming. The makers should be ashamed.
30-49. Poor. Why did they do that? Some simple playtesting could of worked wonders.
50-69. All right. Hey it works, and we can see what they are tryin to do. And thats about it.
70-84. Good. Worth playing, especially if you're a fan of the genre. It just lacks that touch of greatness.
85-89. Superb. This is the sweet spot. If a game scores in this zone then it's definitely worth your money.
90+. Amazing. You must get this. Failure to do so would mean missing out on a real console classic.


Gearbox, ye have failed me! WHY?!?!?!

Here's hoping that by some stroke of luck, the official console magazine review was just an outlier...

According to the launch trailer OXM gave it a 9/10 so it could just be PSM who hated it

I hope there's a demo coming so I can try it for myself because I'm becoming more and more interested in it

Has PSM ever been taken seriously?

No more than OXM, or Nintendo Power.

One UK site gave it an 8.5 (incidentally thats the same score they gave CoD4) so  with OXM giving it a nine that PSM review seems like a outlier indeed so far.
