Not in PC Gamer uK it didn't.

It got a 90% score in PCGamer Sweden (Doom3).
That's REALLY bad if you remind yourself of the fact that they rate "HL" class games with 97 and 98%. No game I've ever seen has gotten 99-100%.
 
yeah, doom3 got 90% in pc gamer uk, heh no wonder that poor delusional doom3 fanboy that used to rant and rave here about doom3 doesn't come around anymore.

so, pcgamer us gave doom3 94%, do you think hl2 is going to recieve a higher or lower score in pcgamer us? or the same?..hmmm
 
Hey can someone tell me wat the orignal Halo rating was? I didnt want to make a new thread so I asked here. I got some guys telling me it was like 99% which has to be bs.
 
Do you guys realize how great of a score that is? Think of how much the standards have changed since half life 1, and for half life 2, to get a 96% in today's gaming community is a feat not easily done. It looks like Half Life 2 will be even BETTER than half life 1, which is no surprise.
 
Uh it might be worth putting down the country your in when citing rating. PCgamer UK != PCgamer US

I think Warcraft 2 got a 96 from PCgameUS
And it is true, 90% is 90/100, not 4 stars out of 5, not an 8 out of 10, but a 90/100 or 9/10.

Just because we've seen most games get over 70% doesn't mean most games don't fall in there.

And an FPS game is expected to have a deathmatch/Multiplay much moreso than any RPG and to some extent, RTS game. Especially when it has this much hype behind it : / . some great games get 80% scores
 
PC Gamer UK Mag.

yepp. in PC Gamer UK Mag. we trust..
and if you still think that the game is only worth a 90%..
well.. to bad man... it's official.. 96%.. you cant change it.

96% what? 96% to perfection?

Example:
If i Loved DOOM3 and just was a real DOOM fanboy and was working on a mag... i would give DOOM3 99.9%!!!!!! OMG!!!!!
GO F**KING BUY IT RIGHT NOW!!!! I TELL TEH TRUTH!

what im trying to say is.. im negative. it's all Valves fault..
GIVE ME HL2 YOU BASTARDS.. GIVE IT TO ME NOW!!! :p ;) :)

(I'm not sure if I agree with the Quake II score, though. But that's from a pre Half-Life time)


Yeah. Quake 2 was THE game back then. And Half-Life = based on Quake 2 tech.[/QUOTE]

No, HL was based on Q1 tech.
 
Look all, just click around on the excellent link posted early on and you get all modern games PC Gamer UK has reviewed:

http://www.gamerankings.com/itemrankings/SiteDetails.asp?sort=4

96 Civilization II
95 Command & Conquer Red Alert
95 Quake III Arena
95 Deus Ex
95 Medal of Honor Allied Assault
95 Super Smash Bros. Melee
94 Golden Sun GBA
94 Imperialism II: The Age of Exploration
94 Unreal
94 Total Annihilation
93 Grand Prix Legends
93 Forsaken
93 Battlezone
93 Battlezone II: Combat Commander
93 Half-Life: Opposing Force
93 Hidden & Dangerous
93 Half-Life: Counter-Strike
[...]
91 Far Cry
[...]
90 Doom III

Unfortunatly both Half-Life and Quake II are not on that list, so it's not complete.
 
I believe all of this "HL2 got a 1% to 5% better score than Doom3 HL2 pwns j00, Doom3 fanboy!" would make you a PCGamer fanboy. Just a thought =).

Let's wait and see what it plays like people. I thought Doom3 deserved an 80-85, though I really enjoyed the game; I don't give a crap what PCGamer thinks about the game in their little magazine. From what I've seen HL2 has lots of potential still. Guess we'll be finding out soon enough though!
