Once I see a 6 on a new game I leave well enough alone.
Pity really as it looked promising.

awww .. but wait lower scores means its better game for more of the hardcore fans.. look at ARMA II for example. to game reviewrs its not a AAA title, but for me and all the ARMA fans, we love it! Same thing with this game… as well 1st assasins creed.

THE game looks like a turkey-probably will be similar to that other turkey Pandemic made, Mercenaries. The vehicle handling was terrible in that too-looks like they just ported it over from Mercenaries. I will avoid this one

An 8 is not bad. I still want it. Don’t care. I try not to let game scores interfere with my decision making process – just whether I get it used or not.

I’d say 8 in a ‘good’ score.
If you really want it go for it, plenty of averge games are ok, i even liked abit of Velvet Assassin, not ALL of it, or half of it but SOME of it was good… Well, ok…

VA was really bad I thought, for a 2009 game anyway. I’d give it a 4 or 5 at best.

IGN is showing a 8.2 overall, not a 7.5 if you follow the link. Lasting appeal got a 7.5.

I think that spread’s pretty much good enough for me to check it out once it hits the bargain bins. In about a week.
