Title: Gamespot reviews WWF Raw!
Post by: IronFist on February 11, 2002, 04:17:27 PM

6.5 "Fair"

Gameplay: 6
Graphics: 8
Sound: 8
Value: 6
Tilt: 6

Man, now I\'m starting to see why the Xbox is having a better "first few months" than the PS2 was. :rolleyes:

We will see if the other non-Xbox sites agree with this score, or if this low score is a Gamespot exclusive...

And here\'s Xbox.ign\'s score posted on Friday in Insider (Are you sure you want to see this?)

9.1

Presentation 10.0
Graphics 9.0
Sound 8.0
Gameplay 9.0
Lasting Appeal 7.0

And the gap between xbox.ign and Gamespot increases further.  He he he.


And Gamepen.com gave it a 3/5 (mathematically, it\'s the same as 6/10).

Now all we need is TeamXbox and Gaming Age. :D

Heh, I still trust gamespot even moreso than ign.xbox for xbox reviews.  The review I want is state of emergency. :)

i hope it isnt as bad as gamespot reviewed it.  If im going to buy a game, i usually read thier reviews and some other sites reviews, and most of the time they are on target.  If it is true, however, its going to suck for all the people who waiting for it.

I think that\'s a bit high, considering how their rating scale only goes up to five.

Good enough for me.    IronFist, you\'ll get an Xbox one day or another don\'t you think?   So believe in Xbox too.  :D

i\'m willing to bet that it will be a let down, let\'s face it every wrestling game is a let down when it comes out.  i wish just one time a wrestling game was "better" than advertised.

Frankly, all the wrestling game I\'ve tried on all systems are crap. The characters ,move way too slow..maybe that\'s how it\'s suppose to be. Anyway, the real thing is more fun and exciting.

Gimme SC anyday.

all i can say is "Pfft" to XBox IGN and "Huzzah" for Gamespots continued unbiasedness...

They say its a "SPORT" SIM

Pfffffffftttttttt

yeah right

as if the WFF can considered a SPORT, when ever fight is staged and pretermined before its done.

Professional Wrestling is considered "Sports Entertainment", therefore a simulation of such entertainment would be a Sports Entertainment Sim...seeing as no category exists, Sports Sim is the next likliest choice...

So are they unbiased because you agree with them?

...they are unbiased (relatively speaking) because of their consistancy in giving fair scores, rather than exuberrantly high scores

which i guess...you would be correct, it is opinionated  :D

but its all relative, if your an Xbox LOVER and a rview site gave EVERY XBox game 10.0/10.0 then you could claim that they arent biased...  eh... :confused:

kinda...lost what my point was  :(

but to a large extent you were correct.. in the end  it comes down to everyones opinion...it just so happens that their opinions arent consistantly giving out high score after high score...

gah!  :confused: :confused: :confused:

thanks a lot Ace!  you got me all caught up in a circular pattern of thoughts!!

I wouldn\'t call them completely unbiased, but they are a lot less biased than xbox.ign is.  The Wreckless scores proved that, and if more multi-console sites give WWF RAW a low score like Gamespot gave, then it will be even more obvious how biased xbox.ign is.
