Yeah, just listening to everything that was said made me think it was getting a 9.5 or at the very lowest a 9 so was pretty surprised at the 8.5.
I've seen that prediction floating around several places even before the review embargo.Didn't they? Seems pretty clear to me. Why would they predict something like this
Nah, I get it. Waiting for scores must be extremely stressful for the devs, only for you to see a post like that, haha.
Huge R&C fan here, just not my favorite one, even though it's still a great game. Genuinely glad people enjoyed it more than I did.
All he gave was his opinion…….
Not a good look. Brazil wasn't disrespectful or anything, just gave his honest opinion.

Glad to hear it :)He already apologized. He didn't know the poster was a reviewer.
Meh. Let jstevenson have his fun.Not a good look. Brazil wasn't disrespectful or anything, just gave his honest opinion.
It's all good, they've already apologized. For all they knew I was just someone with an attitude talking about a game I hadn't played :PNot a good look. Brazil wasn't disrespectful or anything, just gave his honest opinion.
lmaoWhat kind of person participates in a guessing thread with inside information? Are you also the kind of person who cheats when they play games with kids?
"NintendoLife"Why is everyone dunking on this post? Reviewer gave their opinion and assumed others would feel similar problems they did. Not everyone will resonate with elements in the same way and it's weird to discourage a perspective that will be helpful to some.
Yeah that's how averages work, but this does not explain why more reviews mean worse average. If that part is true that certainly does not happen because "how averages work" but because later reviews are giving worse average score than early reviews.
I don't think this is true anyways but even if it is, it does not come from the rules of mathematics.
And Ghost Hunter
And Downhill Domination
And Arc the Lad
And Gravity Rush
God, I wish games didn't cost that much to make :(

I have zero idea what you're trying to imply here
Nice, almost perfect length for me.
Congrats Insomniac on yet another hit!
This is the sort of game that everyone can play and enjoy, and although it's a shooter through and through, it's not violently graphic and the storyline is lighthearted and easy to get along with. The world, characters, and gameplay are all gorgeous. It's maybe the most impressive game I have ever played.
Haha I knewWell I was limiting the list to first-party platformers, but sure, throw those in if you want.
(maybe leave Ghost Hunter out tho)
Weird that Washington Post has 2 reviews, but only 1 (the 7/10 review) was added to MetaCritic:
