Rules are simple, no unknown sites with a questionable reputation.  All sites can be viewed upon their relevance in the industry a bit by looking at their number of visitors: http://www.alexa.com/browse/general/?&Mode=general&CategoryID=117059&Start=1&SortBy=Popularity&R=True. Not all sites with a lot of visitors are trustworthy, arumnets can be added why you think a certain site ca be biased.

Sorry but a quick question...can't we just use metacritic for this?



All the reviewers that I trust the most have said this game is terrible. IGN in particular. Sony rolled out another Lair here. There goes another exclusive just like 2007.

 Famitsu has a terrible reputation. Many people think their reviews are based on hype and what their customers want to hear than on  the actual game. Also an official magazine is a bit dodgy for exclusives - they occasionally review them better than they deserve based on the fact that their fanbase is for that particular console.

 No, that would kill the point of weeding out the reviews that may be biased. Metacritic isn´t as critical as its name may suggest. They also are not independent.

This game will fairly average when all is said and done, since it seemingly collects the very high's and the very low's simultaneously.
Personally; I think it is very, very average, like all console FPS' after Perfect Dark on N64.

 I'm not being sarcastic here:

So you didn't like Halo, Bioshock, CoD4, R6V at all?

I would have thought the introduction of dual analog sticks would make games "better" than perfect dark, that is, if you were to compare the ~10 year old perfect dark to the relatively new CoD4 TODAY you'd say CoD4 is better because of the control scheme.



I can see this thread being trolled like GT.

Lair was a third party game. If you want to call it 2nd party because it was published by Sony, then fine, but Factor 5 might be making a Wii game now. That's not Sony. Sony had nothing to do with Haze's development.
