Is this game coming out on the Xbox, it looks great on the PC but my PC probably wont beable to hack the graphics. From what i've hear the story is about a guy that gets stranded on an Island, i like games that are realistic but not too dark. If this is set to be realeased on Xbox i'll be straight up the nearest SR Store.

I might buy Far Cry for the PC now, and then get it again for Xbox if it has Live.

That's another view I agree with - you can only give a ten in retrspect.

it's easy to say a game rules when you've just finished it, but, in 5 years time, will you feel the same.

And 6 for SSBM? See my view on the Mario Kart score...

6, way off I reckon.

True that no game is ever perfect; something which gets a ten should age well e.g. Ocarina of Time (no pun intended), which I played recently and still is worthy of a ten rating.

What did they give SSB:M?

I'd give Halo 9, but, then again, i'd never gove any game 10/10 - that says that it's 'perfect', and all games will always lack on something, or have something to improve on, and, so, a 10 is simply not plausible.

I also disagreed with their Mario Kart review score - if this was by some independant, british studio with different characters, etc., i feel it's have gotten about 7 or 8.

Yup. Their reviews are still the only ones I almost completely trust, and bar the Halo and Super Smash Bros Melee reviews a few years back I've agreed on most. Their news section is great too.

Whenever I've got the money. Redeye is worth the £4 alone.

Although it has been toned down a lot recently, to try and ncrease readership, and it['s becoming ever more obvious.

It's still miles ahead of that GamesTM crap.

Yeah, problem is lack of ammo. And as far as I can tell, it doesn't work with grenades; they just leave a nice charred mark.

And you read EDGE?
