Default Re: Are Video Game Reviews Broken?

One criticism of No One Lives Forever on the Playstation 2 was that it removed the Quick Save feature present on the PC.

I can't recall, nor do I give a shit to look it up, which site had such a differential in score....but I think it was Gamespot. The PC version of NOLF received something like a 9/10 and GOTY recognition, and the PS2 version got a 4/10 or something and was deemed unplayable. The absence of Quick Save makes certain parts of the game excruciatingly difficult. I believe the Quick Save limitation may have had something to do with the console vs. PC tech limitations...so to interject between this debate:

What do you (Vampyr/Typhoid) think about this example?
