MGS4 is D00MedZ0RZ!!!

Someone who shall not be named is apparently keeping track of the lowest review score for MGS4. Notice how many comments they got on that post? Sure brought a lot of traffic their way. Apparently they didn't get the memo about all this talk recently concerning review scores being not worth anything.
I'm not going to tell you what the lowest review score (it's really not that low) so far has been for MGS4, you can find out for yourself at eurogamer. I don't care what review scores MGS4 gets, I'm going to buy it to see the conclusion of Snake's story. I'm not at all upset about Eurogamer's score either, if they didn't like it, that's fine with me. It's always good to know what to expect. I just can't stand when people use flame-bait to get massive views. (Irony: I will probably get a lot of views for my flame-bait title.)

Anyway, with MGS4 on the horizon I'm willing to bet we are going to see a lot more of these types of stories. Sorry for all the "other website" hate, I just had to get it off my chest.

What type of world are we living in when 8/10 is met with such dismay?

The 9.9/10 IGN reviews comments are full of people whining that it didnt get the full 10 ffs.

I also heard that Blu-ray lost the war because of this and HD-DVD is uniting with digital distribution to create an unconquerable hybrid.

I read the eurogamer review and not only do I agree with the rating based on what the reviewer wrote, his review has honestly gotten me even more excited for this game (as if that were even possible).

I think the idea behind the title was that if the lowest score the game has gotten is 8/10, then it must be badass. Also, why not blog on the reveiwers who were told by Kojima they had restrictions on what could be said if they wanted a review copy?

Hot damn! I totally wasn't expecting 1300+ comments.

I can't believe so many people freaked over an 8/10.

Eurogamer tends to give games minus points for gameplay elements that don't quite work perfectly, while praising everything else in a review. They did the same with Ninja Gaiden II, talking about how awesome it is but ending with a 7/10 review. At least they didn't give Twilight Princess a 4/10? ;)

MGS4 looks cool to me, and that's the first of any MGS titles that did this. Do want!

I could care less about ratings as I love the other MGS games and will blindly buy this one even if it is one loooong movie, with press "x" to live tossed in somewhere.

yeah wtf is all this shit about ratings?

Who fucking gives a shit, buy it if you think you might like it. Or don't buy it if you arent interested.

It's not fucking rocket surgery.
