It was almost three years before Edge gave a game a rating of ten out of ten. This score was previously defined as "revolutionary", with the other ratings having similar labels. However, with issue 143 the scoring system was changed to a simple list of "10 = ten, 9 = nine..." and so on, a tongue-in-cheek reference to people who read too much into review scores.[11]

The magazine has only awarded this score to nine games:[12][dead link]

* Super Mario 64 (Nintendo 64) - E35
* Gran Turismo (Sony PlayStation) - E55
* The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (Nintendo 64) - E66
* Halo: Combat Evolved (Xbox) - E105
* Half-Life 2 (Windows PC) - E143
* Halo 3 (Xbox 360) - E181
* The Orange Box (Windows PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360) - E182
* Super Mario Galaxy (Wii) - E183
* Grand Theft Auto IV (PlayStation 3, Xbox 360) - E189


Guess that makes LBP the 10th 10

Oh wow....WOAAAAH...
A 10 from EDGE. Now that's impressive. Anyone who knows anything about EDGE, knows how harsh and biased they can be.
Now that, is awesome.
Thanks for the info Rabid.

P.S: They gave Saints Row 2 a 5 XD

Probably didn't have the review code in time to play the game and write a review before deadline.

Another 10 out of 10 for LBP.
Oh and while we're at it, when I was at a local game store today I picked up a gamin-magazine and they gave LBP a 10 out of 10 aswell! The magazine is called "GameReactor" if you have ever heard of it...

No joke. If anyone was going to give this game an 8, it would be them. This game had to have totally floored them to give them a 9, let alone a 10 for a PS3 exclusive. Edge is reallllly bad at times when writing a balanced review for PS3 games. Same with Gamespot.

That's also a really harsh review for Lego Batman! I didn't think it was great, but would have given it a 6, 5 if I was harsh! So 10 for LBP is great.2008-10-17 15:07:00
