So the first PlayStation 3 reviews are in, and the verdict? Meh. First Crecente delivered the goods on NBA 07, and now Gamespot, a website I always accidentally go to while shopping for games online, has reviews up for Tony Hawk's Project 8 and Genji: Days of the Blade.
Tony Hawk receives a 7.3, citing problems such as lack of customization options, an unstable frame rate, and most notably a lack of online play. Seeing as the 360 version does support online there really is no good reason to buy this on the PS3 is you own Microsoft's system.
Genji rates a 6.4. While they laud it as a nice showcase for the system's technical capabilities, it's pretty much just another repetitive hack 'n slash game with sometimes frustrating level design underneath a colorful candy shell.
I'm predicting that reviews for most games launching with the system will range from average to very good, with the exception of Resistance, which sites will use to set the bar for PS3 excellence out of the gate. Keep in mind that all predictions I make are subject to retconning in case of horrible inaccuracy.
