Strangely, this holiday line-up could be categorized as "The Year of 9.0" at GameSpot.com.If you look at the year's top holiday releases, GameSpot has given nearly every one the same score - 9.0.
Checkout the list below:
Gears of War 2 - 9.0
Resistance 2 - 9.0
Fallout 3 - 9.0 although 8.5 on PS3
Dead Space - 9.0
Little Big Planet - 9.0
Is it merely a coincidence that each of these high-profile games are equally well crafted? Or is GameSpot having a difficult time debating whether they want to hold one title higher than the others? Maybe they are just afraid of the backlash from fanboys?
Perhaps financial constraints have some factor if one developer purchases ad space over the other. It could also be likely they purchase the same amount.
With two other high-profile releases this week (Call of Duty: World at War and Mirror's Edge) launching this week, it will be interesting to see how the reviews turn out.

China's economic growth slowed to 9.0 percent in the third quarter of this year, down by about 1 percentage point from the first half as the economy took a hit from the financial turmoil triggered by the U.S. subprime mortgage crisis, the government said Monday.
