Meh, not too out of sorts. There's a couple I'd argue the score when comparing to each other but broadly not too shocking

[capcom_suicide]

Except to give tareaway 8 means you have no soul! . But yeah, nothing dramatic in those scores .

[rmoxon]

Don't games TM review the multiplayer part of games seperate to the single player? If so that means they thought battlefield 4 (which has a crap solo campaign) has a better single player than CoD Ghosts (which has a good solo campaign)....

Or don't they do that anymore?

[Mr Ono]

Single review scores. Review summary:

BF4 review - crap single player and decent multi which hasn't really moved on.

CoD:G - both single and multi add nothing new to the series.

[rmoxon]

COD Ghosts does nothing new but the single player is still a lot of fun. I don't even play the multiplayer and id give it more than 6. It's certainly a much better game than Black Ops 2.

Battlefield 4 has a terrible single player that's just thrown together and from what I hear the multiplayer is a buggy mess that doesn't work more often than it does, so I have no idea how they work out those scores.

[Golgo]

7 out of 10 for Lego Marvel is wrong - it's a clear 9 if it's a day. I know that for a fact and I haven't even played/had it off Santa yet.

[Guts]

It's funny that Knack and Ryse are scoring so highly. If those two were 360/PS3 games they would be deemed total s***.

[Strider]

I thought knack was an average platformer? 5 sounds right.

[speedlolita]

Surprised Forza got an 8 out of 10 TBH.

Giantbomb guys seem to hate it.
