Here is it for any of you care to read it. 

I don't care what score it gets I can't wait to get this game, Killzone 2 is my most loved game this generation so far and I know 3 won't disappoint.

8.5 OMGWTFISSHITRAAAAAAAAGE

"8.5 OMGWTFISSHITRAAAAAAAAGE "

I do not envy the people who have to deal with the Sony fanboys.

Well i hate Gamespot and i love Killzone so....

8.5 is an amazing score. It doesn't seem like people understand that.

Same score at IGN. 
Probably won't get this. (not because of 8.5 incase anybody thinks that)

"I do not envy the people who have to deal with the Sony fanboys. "

Good to see the story still sucks.

I didn't really care for the second when I played it, but all this talk of the third has me curious to go back and try it again. The multiplayer sounded awesome, though I never tried it. 
 
Either way, that's a good score. I'm not totally surprised given how Killzone 2 was received and what the hype around this one was like. 

aint no thing.  I hear its Killzone 2 with tighter controls (i'll find out tonight when I d/l the MP demo) so that means its good to go for me.  Wonder what Bulletstorm is gonna get tho.
 
"Awful story"...that's a shame but Killzone 2 didn't have much of anything either.  Surprised tho since it seems like the devs had focused more on that this time around.

Yeah I was a little surprised as they hand out 9's to just about anything these days *Cough COD*. "

" 8.5 is an amazing score. It doesn't seem like people understand that. "

Shit was really looking forward to some online co-op. Really disappointed that it's offline only. In this day and age, having no online co-op is lame.

Thou shalt not mention that accursed site on the GB forums... ever. Doing so will get you an eternity in hell!

8.8 = Twilight Princess is the worst Zelda game ever.  Yes, even shittier than those CDi games.
 
Killzone 3 is shit!!!!11

8.5 is a great score, considering how both IGN and Gamespot point out the lackluster effort in the story of the 1P mode. I might give KZ3 a try (didn't care too much for KZ2), but for now I will pass on it.

GameSpot hates PS3.

It's the internet people only deal in absolutes, it's either a 10 or a 0 there's no in between for people if it's a franchise they're attached to. All critics should have the same opinion as the person reading the review at all times. You should know better. "

Hey as long as the story is good I don't care! 

"And for this reason its why I like this forum. The staff doesn't review games often so I don't have to see crap like this. At least I don't have to see it too often.  I still don't understand why people care about a review as passionately as they do . If it helps you to make a purchasing decision, great. That's what they are for. Why does it matter after that? "

Gamespot is not worth the load time.

I await the day when people obtain the intellectual comprehension to read a review and not base a game on a single number assigned to it. This thought probably isn't shared by many, but I couldn't care less about the number, but more about the feelings being conveyed from the reviewer. 
 
Also, I CANNOT wait for KZ3. 

Awful story?  Man, that counts for a lot for me.  What keeps you going in a game?  Might as well just make Killzone multiplayer only and include bots.

I would have bought the game if it got 8.6 or higher from Gamespot. Oh well...

Shitty story? Shocker! I enjoyed KZ 2 despite its own shit story so I'll probably enjoy KZ 3 also, except this time I'm just going to rent it. The multiplayer never held my attention.

Their points seem fair and it's still a good review. Means it's a great game hampered by a few small flaws. People will still get so up in arms about this.  
 
Considering I still haven't completed KZ2, this might be a purchase down the line, as opposed to day 1.

To get an 8.5, and have the story called terrible, says something good for the game surely.

As a PC gamer who has played FPS games for longer than some of your lives, I was very happy about the feeling of KZ3 beta (the one released today, hours ago) with a joypad. KZ2's demo felt terribly sluggish and really un-fun because of it's controls, whereas here it's less churning butter and more "acting like you're suffering from bad physical latency intoxication".
 
And holy lol @ all the people taking 8.6 as a piece of shit not worth buying.

I'm no video game journalist but reading that review and watching the review video was hard. What a crappy review, he must have thrown it together in 10 minutes and he gets paid for it. I'm not even interested in Killzone, but that review is crap.

So its a Killzone game.

" 8.5 is an amazing score. It doesn't seem like people understand that. "

I don't even see why people play this game.

Killzone has never been anything beyond mediocre.  The only thing that makes it appealing is the fantastic art design, the graphics they get out of the console, and the way they made multiplayer dynamic with the changing game types mid-session.  Kotaku has a review on the Move support and actually gives it a good recommendation, making the idea of Move-enabled FPS games more appealing.

When are we going to get over this fascination with linking to other websites about their reviews and circle jerking about how nobody actually cares about the website and review score in question?

You know guys. I really hate to bring old issues here but as far as I recall when Gears came not many of those same reviewers complained about the shitty story and when gears 2 came out they still didn't really say anything when that game's storyline turned out to be a pile of garbage. I am starting to think reviewers are just a bunch overly critical, hypocrites ass holes who just could make it as game designers so they picked the nest best thing (no offense to the GB crew). I know I am going to play the all living shit out of this game and that's what really matters. 

A lot of reviews have been talking how the plot isnt great which is unforunate...

I watched the majority of the first game being played and it was so shitty. However I downloaded the KZ2 demo and while it felt different (guns felt... heavier or something) I loved how the game looked and I think the gameplay is something that would grow on me. I'm thinking about getting KZ2 and 3 when they both get cheaper. 
 
I heard the story for 2 and (apparently) 3 sucks, but I'm over having a good story in an FPS. There are very few that I enjoyed.

Couldn't care less. Still am half way through Killzone 2, which shows my lack of interest in the franchise as I normally eat console FPSs for breakfast. Considering IGN, Gamespot and Joystiq all say the story sucks, the game must hella compensate in other areas though.

I wish we would all just start using the entirety of the rating system instead of this bullshit that makes people think that 8.5 is a shitty score.

only local coop? bummer. i suppose good set-piece battles could offset a bad story.

IGN game it 8.5 also
