Metacritic is 92 based on 29 reviews.
I still don't get what this game is. :P I'll go look up some videos.
EDIT: Now it's 93 based on 30.

IGN Uk - 9.1
IGN AU - 9.0
For one time this week, IGN US have the right answer.
I'm going to run out my house on friday and buy the special edition with the book and read it all the way home on the bus. Then play this game like a cunt.

'the hell is with GameSpot? Do they intentionally rate down hyped games to stir controversy and hits?

i just wanted to come here and chime and say this game is fucking amazing.
'the hell is with GameSpot? Do they intentionally rate down hyped games to stir controversy and hits?Reading some of GS's review, it seems the rating is more appropriate than you might think. Seems people think the rating system is 7-10 with anything below 7 being replaced with 0.
We need to remember that everyone has a different opinion on numbers.

Yeah got it today.
Took me about 30 mins to get the bus down town, got the game, come up to the bus station, was right there so no waiting. got home in aout 10mins or so, then i shut the curtains, turned up the sound and immersed myself to it.
You can so feel the resemblence to Knights of the old republic. Its just so much more then what it was. It really is brilliant, and im only 3 hours into it. So theres gunna be alot more stuff happening later on.
I love reading/listening to the galatic codex. Such a deep and historic universe they've created. Really is an amazing game. Really recomend it if you like RPG's, sci-fi RPGs or just sci-fi in general. And obviously if you liked Knights of the old republic.
