Ubisoft games are never terrible, not amazing either.
7/10
Agreed. I'd say personally an 8.5/10 lol I don't really know of a game by this publisher recently I'd ever give a 10/10, but I've seen that score thrown around for much worse titles that are barely functional. Maybe its just me, maybe we are so use to just expecting a 7 or 8 out of 10 title that we don't see it as "amazing", maybe that amazing part is that they are extremely consistent. That has to count for something with titles coming out damn near unplayable. I try not to be as harsh on this publisher when I realize some of my worst experiences last gen, have not been with Ubisoft but.....other teams and publishers.
I'd say they might be the most solid 3rd party publisher in gaming. Consistent, strong quality, timely releases etc. I try my best not to make it a personal thing simply cause I like other titles more, they put out strong titles of games that work, look great etc. I say again...it must count for something in a sea of releases that over promise and give you broken games. This isn't a day 1 for me, but its a buy down the road because of that trust that we are getting a working game with solid design.
Far Cry 2 was the last good one.
Is a gem, but after playing 4 and 5 a year or so back, they have had many good ones. I like the concept of 2 a lot, but I can never say it was the last good one, the rest are pretty solid.
