Do u really think they have the money to buy reviews?

They haven't even given the game a score yet.

Nah, a multibillion dollar company like Sony can't spare a couple thousand dollars to buy itself a review score.

Oh they have the money, just nothing to put it in. You see, unfortunately MS bought up all the duffles in the tri-state area for their Halo 3 review swag bags. Guess Sony is gonna have to sit this one out, or find briefcases...

Nothing beats Sony paying for IGN's exclusive coverage of GTAIV. I laughed like a mofo when it was proven that the 360 version of GTAIV runs in a higher resolution. IGN am failed.

"proven that the 360 version of GTAIV runs in a higher resolution"

Very true. But unfortunately the 360 version suffers from heavy dithering making it's higher resolution look worse.

I know it sounds strange, but the PS3 version running in a lower resolution helped the overall image. And no this isn't some fanboy statement. It would be nice of the PS3 version ran 720p as well. But my point is that the finished look isn't as bad.

I have no Idea why Rockstar decided to put that amount of dithering effect into the 360 version.

Am I the only one that is surprised how this story got approved when it contains such an obvious spelling error? What the hell is a "Magaine"

No.

And looking at your long comment history of trolling the 360, I assure everyone that your comment is indeed of the fanboy variety.

Is this not the same issue with the Kratos LBP skin code and the LBP review? If so, This is going to be an awesome issue.

Nope this issue comes out at the end of october.
In all honesty I think OPM will give R2 a 9/10.
The game in the end probably will deserve scores like 10/10, but OPM have already given perfect scores to two PS3 exclusives this year.
If they gave Resistance 2 a 10/10, people would probably accuse them of being heavily biased. (Despite giving the first Resistance a mere 7/10)

On second thought, there actually is a possibility that OPM could give R2 a 10/10.
On the "Next issue" page it says...
"Better than Call of Duty 4?"
I think that could be a sign^^.

R1 actually was probably an 8/10 to me. Same with Halo 3. There are some things I liked about Halo 3 over R1.

R2 is looking at least 9/10.

The only game that deserved a 10/10 this year for me was MGS4.

4.3 - """And R1 is a 7/10 game to gamers not fanboys""""
So by your logic ""opinions" no longer mean anything?
People who loved the first Resistance and would give it a 9/10 or 10/10 are now considered fanboys? Even the ones that own all three consoles?
You my friend are a very ignorant person. Just do yourself a favor and stop posting.

When it come to review PS3 games and 360 games, the reviewers rule of thumb are:

PS3 games auto -1 point

360 games auto +1 point

Exclusive reviews are always dumb. Even if they don't buy the review, they essentially take away the review's credibility. Having a bunch of reviews with similar praises/complaints adds credibility to the claim. When you don't have other reviews offering different opinions, it won't really matter how good or bad the review is.
