Ryse embargo lifted, and I don't know why you were so paranoid - they clearly had nothing to hide. :roll:

Surprisingly, the low scores and apparent repetitive nature of the gameplay haven't swayed me from picking up Ryse tomorrow. I guess those graphics and that ancient Rome setting are big draw cards for me. Still disappointed to see it couldn't get higher scores but it isn't unexpected.

There has to be some technically superior shitty launch game otherwise it's not really a launch. Like the Wii U launch.

So the XBOne Smartglass app (accidentally?) revealed more Forza info - as well as the Car Pass, there's some other stuff going on...

People thinking about picking up the car pass might want to hold off until more details are announced.

Looking at metacritic reviewers have been very critical of all first party titles this time around, you have EA yearly recycled games with better scores.

I guess reviewers aren't giving first party the easy 9-10s they used to get.

Also seems very obvious now we're in a time now were graphics are not enough to carry a game or keep people interested, understandable given the diminishing returns and small leap this new gen provides.

It may be a smaller leap from last, but we've got games like KZ:SF and Ryse looking as good as high end PC games which require a decent rig to be played. And these are just launch games developed on beta kits. Once devs get used to the hardware things are going to look better.

Halo4 scored less than Halo3 even though Halo4 has better graphics. Halo3 was more popular online.

I've just seen this trend, reviewers are not rewarding graphic leaps like they used to when scoring their games. We are probably at a point where most games already look pretty awesome, a couple of extra effects here and there or better textures aren't going to make the game more fun to most reviewers.

It's what I expected, reviewers can't go throwing 7-8-9 at a game with shallow gameplay right at the start if a new generation.

like I said I'll play this for the same reason I played fight night rnd 3... If i'm buying a next gen console I wanna see some next gen visuals, dead rising looks fun but that last gen look can wait while I scratch my itch
