While you were sleeping last night Gamespot finally reviewed Rachet and Clank for the PS3. This was thought to be the killer app many PS3 owners were expecting. The game got some pretty good reviews from other gaming sites.
But Gamespot gave an average score....7.5. The entire Sony Nation are up in arms agaisn't gamespot. According to some fans....Gamespot hates the PS3.
Whachoo fellas think?
(I personally find it funny all the screaming fanboys e-mailing the gamespot site.)

I actually disagree on the last bit, as the reviews are pretty much based on whether or not the reviewer liked the game or not - it's not all about the technical aspect.
I don't think it's so much as bias as not everyone likes the same thing.
They all are bias
Every single one
Games, Movies, they all support ones that have some connection with them or if they don't like something then they will trash it
Alas this is the way of the world

It's too easy, the story falls flat, and the "throw everything in including the kitchen sink" style of gameplay takes too much of the focus off the tight platforming and fun combat. That said, the gorgeous visuals and generally fun gameplay are enough to make Tools of Destruction worthwhile for the series' fans and newcomers alike.
Seriously, though, there are a few reviewers on the Gamespot staff that have all but admitted to hating the Wii. I'm sure there are a few that feel the same about the PS3.

The guys at IGN rated it a 9.4, which judging by the rest of the media reviews seems like they rated it too high. Overall its prolly in the 8.5 range. Needless to say once I get my PS3 this is a game I'll pick up for sure. Gamespot is pretty bias towards the Wii though (and the PS3 to a lesser extent), Zelda got an 8.8, Metroid Prime 3 got like an 8.5, makes me wonder what they'll rate Galaxy. Nevertheless I doubt this game is a 7.4 seeing as everyone else is rating it like 1 or 2 points higher then that.
I read the review and I can understand where they're coming from. Havnt played the game but if the review is true, I would totally give it around that.
If Gamespot kept with its old score then it would of probably gotten 7.9 or something similiar.
I also agree with its Twilight Princess review. If I remember correctly, the main problem with tha guy that they had was its basically another Zelda game. Great game, but nothing original.
Kinda similar to what happened with them and Twilight Princess. Gave it a score that the fanboys felt was too low and instinctively called bias, without even considering the possibility that the reviewer raised some perfectly valid points as to why the game didn't get a higher score. I like that Gamespot doesn't cater to the fanboys and reviews a game honestly, not taking into account hype or any of that.
