PS3 Game Reviews Coming In
November 16th 2006 00:18
Well as I'm sure you know November equals PS3 release in the United States, and whilst this doesn't mean much for us poor Aussie gamers (unless you're importing, of course) it does give us a chanch to find out just which launch games will be worth buying when the system makes it to our shores sometime next year.
Gamerankings.com is a US site that compiles, sifts through and sorts game reviews from websites and magazines alike, and is normally your best bet if your trying to find out if a game is any good. Although not all launch titles have been reviewed yet, here are the ones that have, with their average review score.
Resistance: Fall of Man - 90.3%
Marvel Ultimate Alliance - 85.6%
Genji: Days of the Blade - 58.0%
Madden NFL 07 - 75.0%
Tony Hawk's Project 8 - 78.7%
NBA 07 - 72.7%
Ridge Racer 7 - 82%
Call of Duty 3 - 88.3%
Although boasting four games with an average score of over 80% is not bad for a new console, PS3's baby, Resistance: Fall of Man, looks like it's going to do wonders for the system. With the Xbox 360's Gears of War becoming the 18th highest ranked video game EVER (on gamerankings.com) and selling like hot cakes, MS have the perfect antitodote to the PS3 launch. Sony execs would be feeling the heat, but Fall of Man should relieve some of that. After all, its taken the Xbox 360 until a year into its lifespan to get a true killer app. Will Fall of Man really prove to be a system seller though? Guess we'll have to wait and see.
