Latest 360 Reviews from OXM [update]GameInformer reviews as well - Aug 22, 2006 06:50
I didnt feel like putting all the reviews go get the mag if you want (has FEAR demo)


Dead Rising - 8.5 ( a better save system in my opinion couldve upped the score)

Saints Row - 8.0 (this even surprised me...I enjoyed messing around in the Demo but I expected no more then a 7.0, we' ll see what other reviews have to say.)

Enchanted Arms - 6.5 (I never followed this game much so I have no opinion)

Madden NFL 07 - 8.0 (Im renting it should be here soon, I completly skipped the first one, maybe 08 will be a purchase)

Ninety-Nine Nights - 7.5 (2nd highest score I seen so far...its ok Quez...)

Lego Star Wars II - 8.5 (I sort of enjoyed the first one and will probably pick this one up)


So I guess its a decent way to end the summer and start the Fall.

Yay!!!
Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.

Evil man has never helped anyone,nor has he written about any intresting news,nor does he create something people can discuss about.

All he does is telling people to fuck themself...

I' m gonna ignore him also.

It' s better to leave topics alone than start lots of retarded threads.I' ve been ignoring him since he came here and I don' t need no special functions for that.

Here we go a multiplatform mag for comparisin reasons

Dead Rising - 9.25/10

Saints Row - 8.75 (im still surprised by this for some reason I never expected higher then a 7)

Ninety Nine Nights - 7.5 (see quez the magazines are where you need to be not online)

For anyone whos curious, they gave Yakuza a 6/10

Concept: A deadly dull would be crime epic that combines all the bad elements of the RPG and Brawler genre

Graphics: Pretty enough, but the loading times between screens gets very annoying

Sound: Some of the worst voice acting you' ll hear this year, notable only for a ridiculous amount of cussing

Playability: The fighting is painfully shallow

Replay Value: Low


Other reviews:
360
Bomberman: 3/10
Over G Fighters: 5/10

PS2
DoC:Final Fantasy VII: 6.75/10
Disgaea 2: 8.75/10
Xenosaga Episode III: 8.5/10
Flatout 2 (also on Xbox): 7.5/10
Super Monkey Ball Adventure: 4.75/10


Anyone else got any other magazine reviews? Maybe make some comparisons to web reviews too mag reviews.

Good idea. I' ll pick up a couple of the more respected multi-platform magazines tomorrow and we' ll see what the brits have to say.

Dead Rising still isn' t out here. Not for another 2 weeks! I seriously can' t wait and would have imported if the US version wasn' t region encoded. N3 came out today and i' ll probably pick it up tomorrow (maybe) and Saints Row is out next Friday and i' m actually considering buying it which is really odd!

Change is inevitable. Except from a vending machine.

Viva La Revolution! erm, I mean Viva La Wii!

When my GI subscription comes through, I' ll be glad to post stuff. I don' t think I have much recent, my last issue was a few months ago. There doesn' t seem to be much difference between web and mag reviews. If a game sucks, most people will take it at face value, and not look deep for redeeming qualities. There are only a few titles that really conflict when it comes to the web, and magazines that I' ve ever seen.

Ignoring me doesn' t change the fact that those games suck.

It' s like, if I ignore you it' s not going to change the fact that I live in planet earth, I mean that' s now how things work, sorry kids. The games suck, get over it new ones will come out.

N3 seems to be doing a tad better (maybe a point or 2) in megazines then online. Im still waiting to see what Saints Row gonna avg out with. I know Gamespot will drop it down to a 6 or 7. Either way I find myself picking it up tuesday. Oddly enough the reveiws dont talk about the mulitplayer, so Im waiting to see what thats all about. The MP modes altho silly sounding actually have a decent amount of depth to them.

Well n3 got 7/10 in scandinavians biggest magazine too.

Anyway,as i said famitsu has 4 people who review each game,and it got 8/8/8/7.

Basically 3 of these reviewers gaved it 8/10.

And famitsu clearly doesnt like xbox.

Its all about taste,and why does dynasy warrior sell like crazy in asia?
Cause they appeal to these games that let you be like some crazy hero/god like person.

yes you' re right :)

Anyway it' s silly to call them fanboys.Apple had no problem in penetrating their market with iPods so saying that they hate everything that gajin made is nonsense.
