Fbos far from original

Well duh! Gaming Age have also gotten their hands on a copy of Fbos (ps2) and their verdict is a C+ (which is about 50-60%) on the overall score, the reviewer wasn't baffled by the game due to it not being original, dull and short, here's the end quote:<blockquote>Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel may appeal to fans of this genre that just can’t get enough of that hack and slash stuff. For you I say this game is worth of the purchase, even with BG2 coming out at the same time. For the rest of us, the game is fun and entertaining, but after a short while you’ll get that, “been there done that” feeling. If you were planning already on buying BG2, then rent this one. If you want a BG title with an edgier feel, then buy this title. The choice obviously in the end is yours. Fallout by all means is far from bad; it’s just far from original.</blockquote>With all this going against it I find it mind boggling that they are giving it a C+.

Odin, you have a broken link to fix. ;) Edit: NM, I see you got it already.

No shit! Talk about grade inflation...

OTB
 
The lowest common denominator rules
Forget honesty
Forget creativity
The dumbest buy the mostest
That's the name of the game

For all of the apparent positive reviews I've seen around here lately, I'm happy to report that GameRankings.com has an average rating of 64.4% for the Xbox and PS2 versions.
 
The grades are A,B,C,D,E and F. where the grades represent in the order of appearance (respectively): 100%, 80%, 60%, 40%, 20% and 0%.

C-, C, C+ would be within range (55%,65%) where C+ is closer to 65%.
 
OK, this is the real grading system. It is sometimes varied on by perhaps a point, but no more. I don't understand how people can butcher it, but...

A+ 98–100
A 94 - 97
A- 90 - 93
B+ 87 - 89
B 84 - 86
B- 80 - 83
C+ 77 - 79
C 74 - 76
C- 70 - 73
D+ 67 - 69
D 64 - 66
D- 60 - 63
F 0 - 59
 
Why the hell are you guys debating this ? In all fairness the reviewer should have read his own words and understood that it MUCH lower than a C+...

Oh and stupid rating system, a system trying to be something speciaaahl...stick with what works!
 
Here's how it is at my university...

  • A+ 90-100
    A 85-89
    A- 80-84
    B+ 77-79
    B 73-76
    B- 70-72
    C+ 67-69
    C 63-66
    C- 60-62
    D+ 57-59
    D 53-56
    D- 50-52
    F 0-49 -- Failure
