You know at least PC Gamer stated why they didn't like OFP. They felt it was too real, not enough action...etc

So they have an opinion, so what? I disagree with it, so what? They liked action and GR does that quite well. It also has very tight multiplayer and if they were all playing together on a LAN they were probably having a blast. Good for them.

It cracks me up that so many of you get your nose bend out of shape over the fact that a gaming mag has a different opinion than you. I still read PC Gamer, I read the articals, often comparing the reviews to CGW (the most pestimistic gaming mag around, everything sucks ) and from that I can get a pretty good indication if a game is good or not.

Now is PC Gamer on the payroll of publishers? I doubt it. Look at Motor City Online. It's a huge venture from EA and they pushed it continualy and it was previewed often in the mag. There are ads all over the place and it is obvious EA, one of the largest and richest publishers, has spent a lot of money on it. Now in the review PC Gamer hated it. Are you telling me that Redstorm has more money to throw at the mag than EA to get their game a better rating? I don't think so.

Redstorm isn't throwing money,  they're "throwing" sperm at the guys at US PCGayer.

I don't really care that OFP got a poor review.  But 6 months after it's released, OFP keeps getting dragged thruough the mud, being made fun of, and any GR mention is always followed by more OFP put downs, why can't they just stop talking about OFP?  They don't keep mentioning other "bad" games months after it's first review?  Why OFP keeps getting put down?

I've been a avid reader of PCGamer for years, and often would make a decission if to buy a game or not from the review/preview/demo cd that I got from the mag.  But now they've gone to far, now, it's personal.

Well, they gave it a 70% rating. In their book, thats supposed to be a good game, but not an earth-shakingly good game. I was pissed off because I tend to disagree with that assessment

simple...they are in denial...they can't accept the fact that OFP is better and they made mistake in reviewing.
