I must say i usually like gamespot and their reviews r usually fair with games. but i am not sure if its just me or something but i get the fealing they dont really like hl2 for some reason , it wasnt even mentioned in the e3 2004 awards, and its rarely in their top 10 most popular games.

how the feck should we know? Why dont you ask Gamespy?
 
its because HL2 is in a league of its own, :p, and Gamespot just dont want to be showing favouritism after last years wow at E3, so pay no attention., no big deal.

They might be spies trying to stop valve from releasing another game. Nah that can't be right maybe they are just a bunch of whiny ***holes.
 
When Doom 3 comes out, it'll fall / When HL2 comes out it'll rule all !

(Memo to self : Do not try to rhyme on message boards ...)

I really hope you have a generator for that :) 13,000 + registered peeps can't be a lie, and what does "just deal with it" mean? deal with what?

Well, for one thing, it was at E3 last year and nothing really new or amazing was shown this year. Secondly, who cares if it's in their top 10 most popular list (which I've seen it on many many times). The top game on that list for the last few days has been "Singles", some crappy dating sim that's built for loser 14 year old boys to get wood over because there are polygonal boobies in it.

If you're going to be rude, at least stop using leetspeak.

[NOTE, to =1nfiltrat0r=:] It doesn't make you hip or cool, but what it DOES do is make you look like a f*cktard. No matter how sound your statements are, you will make yourself out to be a complete fool if you use leetspeak.

you officially Suck at life...
 
Did anyone else have to read his comments about 1 word per 2 seconds? I understand leet speak easily... but damn...

Truer words have never been spoken. Imagine if the president's addresses were written in leet speak? Would anyone even begin to take him serious? (as if we already do)
 
unlike IGN, GameSpot doesnt give the fanboys what they want to hear. they dont gush on and on about a game just to get the fans to come back to their site. IGN thinks, 'if we tell them their game is great, then they will be much more likely to come back to our site to read about it.'

GameSpot tells you like it is, like real, unbiased journalists.

that list is entirely based on site traffic, not some GameSpot decision
you have only your fellow gamers to blame for that

Did you know that 1337 took birth due to half-life, which is the only language you happen to speak?

Seriously...

Anyway, Gamespot's top ten game is on the basis of pages viewed, so it was actually on number one at E3 days...and yes, it'd be on number one forever if only valve releases a shit load of screens and advertisement campaigns as bungie does + a release date to look forward too.

a resurection of a more "edgey" Ghetto Fab? hmm..

anyway i dunno what to make of gamespot liking or disliking HL2.
i guess pple will go to other places for their HL2 fix.. like this site :dork: :smoking:
 
Other than flaming infultrator for sounding like a moron....

Gamespot reviews are always anal (for every game) and the top 10 is based on page visits.
 
I think a little lowering of the invincible aura surrounding Half-Life 2 was needed. It's still just a first person shooter after all.

It's weird to see the "How dare they not glorify and praise half-life 2!!" opinions....

I think we need more anal reviewers out there. There was far too much praise for Far Cry imo.
 
Gamespot hyped the crap outta HL2 last year, why repeat themselves this year... especially with the chance history might repeat itself again (rather safe than sorry)

Heh..."fealing"...hehenotfunny

I'm afraid we've had a lot of complaints about the way you're speaking. People are finding it a strain and quite annoying having to read your messages. I've got no choice but to ask you to stop it and try to talk like everybody else. If you can't do that then unfortunately, looking at our records you are on your final warning for a number of other incidents.

Thanks.
 
It never fails to amuse me how alot of you fanboys (presumably the younger patrons of this board) think that Gamespot has some sort of bias just because they have an opinion that differs from yours.

You are stupid. Damn retards...fanboys... \o/

Dude, they put The Sims 2 as the best strategy game at E3. They put it above "Rome: Total War".

That, my friend, makes them look like ****ing idiots.
 
I check them all. Really though, If you check out there interviews and previews they all say pretty much the same damm thing. They all have the same pics and all, none of them have anything exclusive. They all get there respective time and demo's with the devs.

The only difference is how slack you feel, if your feeling energetic, you take the time to type g-a-m-e-s-p-o-t, if your feeling slack you can shorten that by one letter and just typ g-a-m-e-s-p-y. And if your feeling lazy like a drugged sloth, you just typ 3 letters, i-g-n.

I just read the post above mine, THEY PUT SIMS 2 BEFORE ROME: TOTAL WAR as best strategy game? wow, they officially suck total ass, because total war, totally rules strategy.

oh my god you sad little boy, learn to speak properly, that looks retarded
 
People, im not worried at all about HL2. Not too many people know about it now, but when it comes out the average age to get a heartattack will be 16...


H3ll y4h! 1m 4 8jll5qj1d!
 
He just uses a translator because he's a retard. He probably hates Half-Life 2 and he's just trying to make everyone hate him.

Mission Accomplished.

speak english. you coulda typed out that steaming pile of a post faster with the real spellings and you probably wouldnt have looked like such a loser in the process.
 
GAMESPOT is for console kiddies. thats why.
