Default Earned in Blood: Review Scores and Links Thread.

In light of the incoming storm of reviews, and those of us interested in studying every last one, this thread is created. I'll start it off with the first review on the web. All scores are converted to the 10 scale for the purpose of viewing without having to convert fractions on the fly!

cshedd, I've changed your post around a little. Hope you don't mind. We'll keep this as a stickied database for all the reviews.

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice! Boooooooyaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Seriously thats pretty awsome. Although I do need to mention that they did make a minor mistake in that review regarding skirmish. Here is a quote:

"There are five skirmish maps, but in essence you have ten missions because each one can be played from either the American or German perspective. "

I just wanted to clarify that there are 10 different skirmish missions. 5 you can play as the US, and 5 you can play as German. These are NOT the same maps, there are 10 different missions in skirmish.

Yeah, that's me that wrote the first review. There's no doubt Earned in Blood is a great game, but I doubt it'll get the credit it deserves. I suggest everyone that loved the original to go grab a copy tomorrow. And I really wanted to try online out more before I published the review, but I could never find a server, except once. Basically, I played the multiplayer with my room mate and one game online then based my opinion off that.

Thanks. I wasn't planning on buying EiB right away, but I saw Gamestop was shipping it last Wednesday so I ordered a copy and wanted to be the first on the net to review it, and that happened. Hopefully, we'll get some publishers to actually notice our site exists, and send some stuff our way seeing as we can get reviews out. I didn't think Gearbox would pull off a sequel in such a short time, but they did. Anyone know when they started EiB?
