In reality, the only way it matters is publicity. Just a thought, but maybe it's better for Downpour to be mentioned on a "dissapointing" list than not mentioned at all. It gets more awareness of the game out there. Even if people expect the game to be bad, just being aware of it is gonna make them more likely to read a review of the finished product down the line, and then potentially have their opinion reversed.

Hmm, I dunno, if I don't know anything about a series, and then I hear it's disappointing, I might immediately write it off. The only reason I'd read the review after that is if I'm hoping for a funny bad review, although bad reviews aren't as funny as they used to be.

That was bogus. Silent Hill Downpour should have beaten that Fable game.

I agree. After playing Fable 3 I have no hope in this new Fable title. For some reason they always promise more than they can give with Fable games.

Yes you are right. He has these amazing ideas that never get put in the final product. I don't believe people take him seriously anymore.

That was stupid. I hate the people who made that. This is not the "end of Silent Hill".
