Medal of Honor

Alright folks, here it is. A look into the FPS that looks to take over Modern Warfare's crown.

Before I begin, I'd like to make two points, for you fanboys.

A) Being a Call of Duty game doesn't make it good. Put the Kool-Aid down.

B) NOT being a Call of Duty game doesn't make it bad. Grow up and think for yourself.

And yes, I know I said I have zero respect for EA. But I was interested in the game before EA copped out, so I agreed to give the game itself a fair crack.

So here we go, my review of Medal of Honor.

Metroid: Other M

This is one I've been wanting to do for a few weeks now, and I'm finally getting around to it.
Before I get into that, though. Let me explain how my scoring system works.
I grade games on a 20-point scale, rating four different aspects to a game on a 5-point scale, with the sum of each score adding up to the final score.
Here's a general guideline for the 5-point scale for the four aspects.
0-1 = Horrible
2-3 = Decent/Passable
4-5 = Good/Excellent/Perfect, etc.

So naturally, a good way to see the final score is this:
0-5 = Don't even bother. This game is on a level of fail comparable to Jack Thompson's career.
6-10 = You might play this game out of sheer morbid curiosity, or it falls into your niche, but not enough to keep you hooked.
11-15 = Good game, definitely worth a rental, or buy it pre-owned at Gamestop or something.
16-20 = Perfect/Near-perfect masterpiece, definitely worth your hard-earned money.
Without further ado, here's my unbiased, objective review of Metroid: Other M.

Did you also hear that EA is marketing its own clothing line?
Yeah, one of the features is that it automatically folds.

Yeah, EA isn't doing anyone any favors this time. I officially have zero respect for them.
