Quantum of Solace

You guys are saying that this game is justifiably bad, but the game is better than you say. The multiplayer is fun; with different game modes than you normally see, like the Bond vs. mode. Meghan you said that there is shoddy stealth in this game, but I recall a level where if you take out a guy with a silenced pistol, no one is alerted to your presence, but if you just open fire on him or take him down with the QTE takedowns, other men are alerted. When your presence is unknown the level is a lot easier, but with them on you I found that level very difficult. The train level is different from the opera house. In the opera house (the beginning of the level I just explained) is more of a sniping battle, while the train level can be taken on different ways, from the top of the train or from inside the train. You say all this game is other games with a different cover, but really all games resemble each other. Halo is kind of like Unreal Tournament III, all games have to have a cover system, and using the A Button to take cover makes sense. Of course the guns are somewhat the same, it’s a modern shooter. There are numerous stealth games and saying this is just a hybrid is like saying the rest of the games out there are nothing but knock offs. I am sorry but your reasoning on this game is poor. You never even mentioned achievements. There are the usual achievements for beating the levels, but there is one achievement per level that you can earn extra. Like the satellites on the second level, opening the cellar door on the first level with one shot, etc. Trying to do the levels more conservative, like the cellar door achievement, or just looking closer at your surroundings changes the game for the player. Also the cell phones are like the computers in CoD4 or Gears of War. But do not also tell me that QoS AND CoD4 BOTH copied off of Gears, I mean, CoD4 got a ten, so it was perfect and DIDN’T copy off of another game! Just had to get it out.

To Meghan
Since i find your taste in games similar to mine which games would you recommend to an X-box newcomer?

Sorry, Meghan not Maghan!!! LOL

I agree with Alex Great 75. Why does everyone insist on attacking the one reviewing the games? I posted a defensive comment on the Dead Space review because I didn't like what people had to say about Maghan and it is carrying over to every review she does now!?!?
I happen to trust Meghan alot because she is honest in her opinions, which ultimately that is all a review is!!! If you don't like what OXM has to say, be a conformer and find someone who justifies your own opinion rather than bashing everyone who doesn't.

What is going on here? I’m not talking to you Meghan (or the rest of OXM for that matter), I’m talking to the people like ReignINblooD420 who don’t seem to understand what a review is. The review is the reviewer’s personal opinion, not always yours. Although you may feel different for a game, that doesn’t mean that someone who has a varying opinion is wrong or an untrustibile imbasile. I certainly commend you ReignINblooD420 for getting 44/48 achievements from Dead Space, and from my assumption you must of really liked it to replay it, but do not hold a grudge. I personally agreed with the OXM reviews of such not quite low but not meeting expectation review scores such as COD WAW, Bond QOS, and Mercs. 2. While I disagreed with review scores for Rainbow 6 Las Vegas 2. I wouldn’t blame the reviewers. Vote with your wallet not with your strong words against reviewers. I agree with this review score. The campaign was short, the AI was dumb, Quantum of Solace was almost completely ignored and the multiplayer was nothing but a 5 minute diversion. It had some fun moments but definitely not enough. It was an adequate game with some very enjoyment segments but it had too many significant issues for me to recommend it. Heck the review is even 2.5 points higher than OXM UK http://www.oxm.co.uk/article.php?id=6860.

One small recommendation for OXM. Make your reviews more personalized; recall experiences you had when you were playing. Talk specifically about bugs or your favorite multiplayer experiences. Please stop using the word WE and start using I in your reviews!

Yeah seriously, lay off meghan, I'd rather her give an honest low score than give a bad game a high score that she feels it doesn't deserve

And those aren't the only games I've reviewed (forgot to add that!).

I would personally check the site to see if that statement was true before posting. True, Dead Space, QoS, and War World received scores below 7.0. But QoS got a 6.5 on metacritic and War World scored even lower. Check your facts, ok?

a 6.5 from meghan? i'm pretty sure that means this game is cool. i highly suggest checking out Metacritic.com before trusting any of her reviews. She's famous for her low scoring of Dead Space and has been met with skepticism on all her reviews as a result, with good reason too. she gave that game a 6.5 as well. She's a very negative reviewer and i personally have never seen her score anything above a 7.0.

Alright I love CoD 4 but seriously why does everyone have to copy off of them. Make something up on your own instead of mooching off others.
