I was waiting for you to spot that. In truth, if Edge had asked me to review the game, I'm not sure the score would've been any higher.

Brilliant.
Adding that one to your award cabinet, Rik?

You wound me.
I
cannot wait to read EDGE's no doubt excoriating review of LotR: Conquest. I
love reading reviews that stick the boot in, even if it's a game I'm quite fond of myself!

I often find that, when reading a review of a bad game you love, the negativity and flaws just remind you of why you like it so much. It's like when you find that you really do love that beautiful girl in front of you, despite her being a little bit racist.

One person going through Haze is bad enough.

Rik will just have to accept that Killzone 2 is slightly worse than Let's Tap. I know he must be upset now, but once he remembers Halo 3's innovation award all will be ok with Rik.

But what'll happen when Let's Tap picks up the innovation award for 2009?

Surely that's a bit of a contradiction, a demo isn't enough for a game to make an impression or for a player to get a feel for the game
as a whole, but playing for an hour or so is?
I basically agree with what Hero wrote, but you raise a decent point and there's a small chance I just don't like FEAR that much or, even worse, I'm being a arrogant knob and think I know better because of my job. Hopefully, though, I mean that an hour of a finished game is enough to put forward an opinion about the core shooting with some fairly big conditionals attached, but a demo is often put together from earlier builds not representative of final quality.
Or maybe I just have loads of free moron stickers to get rid of.
