Only played demo of MGS2, but from the reviews I have read Halo seems the better game. Anyone ever read a bad review of Halo? MGS2 does seem to have a few lower scores though, think Play only gave it 77%.
Not exactly the same genre, so you cant really compare them anyway.

MGS2 realy has very little in terms of originality when compared to the truly ground breaking original. The graphics are better but the gameplay is essentially the same with minor variations. Don't get me wrong, its a good game, but if you're criticising Halo for lack of originality then you've got to take a good look at the just as guilty MGS2, and besides I'd rather be blasting away than sneaking around with a stun gun :)

So, what, are you saying they should just p*ss about and give games any old mark that enters their head?

I am willing to bet every pence I possess (don't get too excited) that you've never played it. Ofcourse, you're now going to 'proove me wrong' by saying you have.

Personally, I have never trusted edge reviews. I buy the mag for their excellent features, but their reviews I often find concentrate on unimportant thing. The example I use is Super Smash for GC. Famitsu gave it 37/40, all other mags rated it really well, I have it and it is AAA, but they gave it 6. For no real reason. BTW what were the other 3 games. My guess is Mario 64, Zelda and MGS1. Am I right?
