The Deal Factor reflects the value of a deal: it's a score ranging from 0 to 10 that is based on the game's average review score, the percentage of the price drop ("savings"), and the game's age. Deals with the largest savings on the best-reviewed and most recent games have the highest Deal Factors. Since we're snobs, we give more weight to the review score than the savings or age (a bad game doesn't get better just because it's cheap or new, and our goal is to help you find the most attractive deals, not just the cheapest or newest games).

GameSpot 7.0 The Darkness II (PS3)

The Darkness II is not the revelation its predecessor was, but ripping up occultists with your demon arms is a blast anyway.

1UP 6.9 The Darkness II (PS3)

Developer Digital Extreme's Darkness sequel is equally parts inspired as it is bloody.

Wednesday, February 01, 2012

Another year...and an even better Call of Duty.

Thursday, November 03, 2011

GamePro 7.0 GoldenEye 007: Reloaded (PS3)
