Yesterday marked the release of the newest Medal of Honor title from EA Games. This is in fact the second title since the reboot of the franchise which came out during October of 2010. While reviews of the game were mediocre it was a big step for the franchise after ditching the WW2 setting to directly compete with the Modern Warfare title Activision publishes.

I've seen games being advertised all over IGN before, only to receive a 6/10.
Except when it comes to big games like Call of Duty, they must have been paid off to give COD 9.0+ every time.

That's a nice personal eoukdbt score imo.
I guess the article can't speak... so maybe you're right.
1. lacking intelligence or good judgment; stupid; dull-witted.
2. lacking the power of speech (often offensive when applied to humans): a dumb animal.
3. temporarily unable to speak: dumb with astonishment.
4. refraining from any or much speech; silent.
5. made, done, etc., without speech.

ps3freak, afterlife was obviously using the first and most common definition of dumb.
Dumb move bro, no offense.
...You mean buy? I'm sure the article made some decent points but I stopped mid-way. Just seems like the article is trying too hard, riding that IGN is corrupt bandwagon. I just use that site for news anyways.
Actually it has been proven time and again that IGN is corrupt. They have been caught lying about titles for site hits and that's at EIC and Senior level writer levels.
They have bee caught doing stealing other sites articles and being riddled with grammatical errors.
Don't be a follower and learn to think outside the box.
So many reports and graphs are funny to look at. They were bought out and the new company took the community out and replaced it with "lets hope your article gets seen by us" formula and the site hit rock bottom.
Mike Meyers is Dr. Evil. He also is austin powers and fat bastard too.
Because perks and money go to those who engage in legal fraud.
Because 'thats how the world works', 'it's part of being and adult', and a million other sophistry filled reasons to justify doing the wrong thing.
I'm not anti-IGN, but when people do stupid things, they should be called on it.
also happy wars is a turd thats why it scored low.
i have little doubt ign reviews some games fairly and bumps some scores for money but calling them dr evil is a bit of a stretch lol. read/watch the reviews and use the info they provide in any way you want. its just their opinion, we typically dont see eye to eye on games but their reviews do what i personally need them too more often then not and thats a description of the final features and gameplay.
also i like greg miller, i think he is pretty funny. brian altano isnt so bad either. i mostly just like up at noon
Look at what the gave Ravaged.
http://www.ign.com/games/ra...
A 6.7. So let's see what they give MoH
Because I guarantee you that even though it's 2x as much it's 100x better than Ravaged.
The initial reviews were good for Ravaged, but you know how there's lots of games that don't get reviewed by a lot of sites, so with it being an online only PC game, I decided to take the plunge.
It sucks. Only about 30 people playing it, and only on the 'demo' version. So you buy the game, and can basically only play the same version as the free demo, as that's the only map they allow, and the only one that has people on it of any significance.
Meanwhile I booted up MoH (multiplayer) on PC, as I could care less about FPS campaigns to be honest.
It was good. I played the 360 demo before my 360 crashed lol that's a 360 for you, and thought it was fun.
On PC the game looks much better. It doesn't have quite the same look as BF3, overall it's not quite as good. In some ways it's better, but all of this could be on the style of how it's played. It's definitely a more linear online shooter (where linear isn't a good word). But you run around more like CoD then Battlefield 3.
So it's a smaller map that you run around in like CoD, but using BF3 engine, yet still different.
When you spawn on your squadmate, you can only do so if he's not in trouble/spotted. So that's a good change from BF3 so you don't spawn on your team and take a bullet meant for them lol.
Lots of unlocks. Interesting maps. While I've only played a couple, I really did like how they are multi layered you can run inside buildings, and there are alot of different little holes (for lack of a better word) where you can see inside of a building, or even be on one side or a building looking into a window able to shoot in, or even shoot through the window on the other side. Good sightlines, but not necessarily for the long sniper. Good medium range sightlines.
I was expecting something different than BF3. If people were expecting more BF3, then I can understand your complaint, but it was pretty obvious it was going to be more like EA's CoD...but different too.
I like it. It's not perfect, but I'd still give the multiplayer an 8.5, which many people would consider a 10. An 8.5 is a very solid score, and well worth the purchase.
I haven't used IGN in ages for much
Oh yeah, IGN is being hated on over at Gamefaqs, better get there ASAP.
Just because I say I like IGN doesn't mean I'm going to become a keyboard crusader for them. I can see why some don't like them, but I do.
And when I said "attack another gaming website" I didn't mean go attack a DIFFERENT one. I meant its a bit unproffessional to write an article about a fellow gaming outlet. Sorry if I sounded like a fanboy, trust me, I'm not.
Is the engine still that buggy?
Some just love Call of Duty games, and some hate it with every fiber of their body.
Everyone of you beautiful people have all individiual taste, dont miss out on food,music,movies or games becaus of a handfull of people's taste's as reviwers.
You might be missing out on great stuff, dont be a sheep be a individual :)
Then i tried picking games by the simple feeling of --this could be fun to play-- and after that i enjoy a lot of games that get scores like 6/10 or lower.
The word sheep in this situation is just a slang word for liking,buying etc just what "everyone else" is and not listen to your own opinions and taste.
It was not meant to insult either human or sheep :)
!!!!!!!!!! (report you have a ! at the end of your article!!!!!) <-----THAT IS DUMB
Regardless if IGN is "evil", this article and website is immature. I can't believe this crap gets approved
no
Honestly i didn't like Happy Wars at all but that's me. As far as Medal of Honor it's not that good and EA has BF3 and that's enough because lots of people like it. I'll like BO2 better than any of them for sure but that's my taste. I HATE MWF3 but BO2 is a different story.
Their either are too generous or simply trash a game.
If anything, IGN are being decent in this case. Suggesting it would be more prudent to bide your time and make sure it isn't a turkey before you waste your money.
I played and felt the game was at least an 8. I think the lack of enemies design and technical issues were the only thing hurting the score but the overall game is pretty good!
So I will never look at IGN as a good source for reviews! I feel they get people who don't even play the games to even know what the F they are talking about!? Two bad things in the gaming industry. Gamestop and IGN!
And if you don't visit sites that gave GTA IV a 9 or higher, then you only have maybe 3 gaming websites in the entire world you could visit.
Need I say more?
