" @EveretteScott:  Turned out to be a bad sign in MoH's case. Always worries me be it movies or games if no ones allowed to touch it till release day. "

I'm going with a 4. Oblivion is a decent developer, but they have a habit of making less-good games as a sequel to phenomenal games. Not that they're not FUN, but they're just missing the magic.

We don't hate Fallout, but there are a ton of  good reasons why smart gamers are suspicious about this release. No reason to get excited about a game with such high possibility to cause disappointment. "

No reason to believe it might be disappointing, either.  Except for all the bitching about an "old engine", which I could really give two shits about. "  

4 stars

You really can't blame people for being skeptical after Alpha Protocol. "

 UPDATE: First signs of a review, but no score. Article states that reviewer says after 12 hours he hasn't even scratched the surface, and that it's a much longer game than Fallout 3.

Giantbomb - 4/5 
Gametrailers - 9,1/10 
IGN - 9,4/10 
Gamespot - 9/10

Four stars.

The equivalent of a 4/5 review score citing the game is great but too similar to its predecessor and carries a lot of the jank from Fallout 3 with it. 
 
But it's kind of dumb trying to guess what other people are going to think of a game before you even know for yourself.

I red through bunch of game websites. especially, metacritic gave this game 85 meta score based on 7 reviews. so it's safe. by the way, recently why IGN does worst review on any game? I know I don't care. but they gave new vegas only 85? I wonder what kind of stupid ass sit, and does review recently? anyway, I bought this game today, and ready to play tonight. enjoy you guys !

" 4/5. Marks down for old engine and no continue option after the last mission.  "
