I haven\'t read the entire Vice City review, but I dunno... I don\'t think any game deserves a perfect score like that.  The game has to have some flaws.

And I really, really wish they would have dedicated more space to the Suikoden III review, perhaps allowing three scores instead of the one.  The reviewer gave it a 7.0, and yet his only major complaints that he detailed were based around the game\'s "poor" graphics.

EGM\'s review crew gave Gran Turismo 2 all 10\'s.  It was a good game, but it wasn\'t perfect!  It had it\'s flaws.  I can\'t remember the last time I bought a EGM magazine.  Is Shoe still with EGM?

suikoden 3 should have had a better score ! the graphics are not that bad and for the char they wanted them to keep a certain cartoon feel , so EGM can go to h*ll !

I agree in some way Zolar, but consider the hardware they had to make GT2. it should be considered as probably
the best PS1 racing game (alonside another one of my fave\'s Crash Team Racing).

It easily deserved a 9 but i understand your concern.. if GT2 was the best PS1 racer then yeah, it should have scored 10
as it would technically been the best out of the consoles lifespan. their imho hasnt been a racer on PS1 that has been
better in terms of replay value (you\'d be lucky to complete the game let alone re-play it) and handling.
it had it all.. The hardware was the downfall.. it just couldn\'t handle what polyphony envisioned.

it\'s up in the air.. i\'d say 9 easily but would it have deserved a 10 if technically there couldn\'t have been anything
more that could be achieved due to the limitations of the PS1. GT2 batterd the machine into submission..
i doubt the PS1 had much more in reserve to give.

182, just because they give a game 10, doesn\'t mean they think it is perfect.

I\'ll probably end up picking up a copy for myself soon since my subscription is out...but can you give me some points for deduction on a few games?

Shenmue II~
I read at other forums that the mark downs were mainly for it being a straight port from DC.  Can you verify that?

BloodRayne~
Seems like a decent score...any cons worth noting?

Ratchet & Clank~
I\'ve taken it off my must-buy list, but I\'m still thinking of renting it.  What were the complaints.  If it has anything to do with handling the characters or the camera...I\'m out.

Sonic Collection~
Is there slowdown?  That\'s the only reason I could see it getting marked down for.

Thanks in advance.:)

I\'m also curious about the Sonic Mega Collection and the Xbox version of Shenmue II. Anyone with the EGM mag in question care to tell us why they were marked down?

Wow...

Strange scores...
July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

WTH? Burnout 2 with just 8s and 8.5s? The graphics of this game deserve AT LEAST a solid 9. I own the game and this game beats GT3 in this area. :mad:

Exactly.  Perfect 10s does not mean it\'s perfect.  It just means it\'s one of the best games.  Don\'t they have a ranking system guide that says what each score stands for (like 1= poor, 5=fair, 10=outstanding, etc)?
