It's also pretty fun to play so far. The combat is no-less deep than any traditional action game like Bayo or DMC, only with a musical timing hook to it.

And there are multiple options to make the rhythm part easier if you want to.

Fantastic sound track to boot, as you'd expect from a game designed around music.
NFAK Qawwalis or bust.

I say this game is a W for MS. One thing that's nice about the sudden drop is that no one judged the game, no 'flop' just release. I feel like a lot of negativity stems from all the waiting / review scores and previews telling people how to feel about it.

Will update as more come out.

i have spend more time with the game ( also the game have spanish vo,thats rare from ms)

game its pretty decent,its good,and looks very nice with excellent animation,its a doble AA but with some good touchs here and there

but man its pretty obvious what its going here,as usual the fanboys are so starving for a win that overhype (in this case being a sudden drop they havent the time to spend months doing that) or overinflate game the game own merits doing a disservice.

already goty for some morons,look here real gameplay not like these movie like third person games,its always fucking the same
they turn a pretty decent game into a meme,something like that happened with stray too,a decent game overype because the fucking "internet llves cats" thing.

also,are people seriously posting reviews from xboxera like that mean something? also the same bufoon who laughed at people posting impressions from double screens now putting reviews of altchar? seriuosly XD

what would you rate it out of 10 if you had to score it?

Those are some pretty ridiculous scores.

Outlets giving 10/10 should be discounted as joke or shilling sites.

Elden ring was like 95% or something for reference and is considered one of the best games ever made.

Elden Ring deserves it though? lol We gave Elden Ring a 10/10.

I am giving you a comparison of arguably the best game ever made vs scores of those.

something does not add up in regard to those two scores (y)

And yes, considering the number of performance issues on launch, you should not have given ER a 10/10.

You are basically telling people that it is perfect, which is not true.

10/10 score doesn't mean its perfect. TLOU 2 and GoW Ragnarok are both 10/10 in my eyes but they are nowhere perfect. But they are Masterpieces and masterpieces also have problems. There are always going to be occasional bugs here and there, but my personal experience of Elden Ring that none of those bugs hampered my experience, nor was there anything game-breaking.

It's a trend I don't like to see. Yes, announcing a game at a show and saying is available right away is neat, it's been done before, but the reviews should come at the same time too. For now, all type of reviewers will come out the woodwork to overinflate this to boost a flailing XBOX......The first reviews of this game are bound to be overinflated and I'm sure from persons who'd hardly been able to finish the tutorial in Splinter Cell, yet they have already finished it and posted a review......

To a reader who sees your review being advertised on your site, they are seeing a perfect score, you should start factoring in performance and bug issues into your reviews.

Games should not be given a pass under any circumstances because they have a host of technical and performance issues.

Just like Bethesda games especially fall-out games, people giving them a pass for being a buggy mess on release, It has now become widely accepted because reviewers have let their standards slip, They should always be held accountable especially since they are charging 70 bucks plus for them.

Maybe its not a lot of money to you but to me it is and i accept high standards from them.

I would be more inclined to cut an indie developer some slack or a game that is selling at a much lower cost but these big studios make hundreds of millions for some of their games, no excuses from me.

True, 10/10 does not mean a perfect game.

But Hi-Fi Rush already has more 10 on 10 scores than another console exclusive that came out a few days ago.

Fascinating stuff. 💚


To a reader who sees your review being advertised on your site, they are seeing a perfect score, you should start factoring in performance and bug issues into your reviews.

If you go by that Elden Rings should have scored a lot lower cause it ran pretty bad at launch on almost all the platforms its on.

But to the reference of this topic, this game (HiFi Rush) does not exhibit any performance issues.

In fact, the PC version ships with no shader stutters and runs great on Steam Deck out of the box as well.

If technical competency is an important criteria for you, this game is a 10/10 so far.

Could be that chapter 8 might run like shit, but I haven't seen anything like that so far from what I've played.

Oh trust me - we do in fact factor in performance and bug issues my friend. Here is the the thing though - Elden Ring never gave me issues on PS5 with performance. I am not going to be taking points of for not holding 60 FPS when the game dipped to 50 or 45 FPS out of my 60 hour playtime. That just makes no sense.

And here is a review of a game that we indeed took off a lot of points for awful performance and technical bugs. I been doing this for years my friend, I know how this works lol.

So you are basically all over the place with your judging system, not having continuity with your judging standards. penalizing one game while letting another slip on by.

We need better reviewers in today's world, standards need to be improved.

As I said, I think you need to readjust your scoring system and be better for the buying public and less friendly towards the game's developers.

And I also know how this works, less of a condescending tone would help a lot.

Cheers friend. (y)
