The Legend Of Zelda Twilight Princess did not deserve anything better as it had to few sidequest, easier than Super Mario Galaxy, little innovation, lack of this Dark Zelda they promised and acouple of more things allthough I enjoyed Horse fighting.

thats a great score i hoped ign woud give it higher though

Sarcasm sure is a bitch isn't it? By yourself a new detector.

Either higher than everyone else or lower.. No respect for there reviews at all. It's all just too get viewers.

8.8 lol

 Meh. I'll probably rent it to see what all the fuss is aboot before buying it. It doesn't look like it'll be that great, though 3rd party games selling well on Wii is always good news.

 Two Words: Lakebed Temple

Innovation? It's a Zelda game come on! What has been innovative on 360 or PS3? That's what I thought

Dark Zelda: You expected them to add blood and extreme violence? This is Nintendo we are talking about! 

I would call Gamespot more clueless and erratic than "hard" on games. They gave Zelda 8.8 for attention, and the same with countless other games. Since then, they've fired the person responsible, and now have to gain their reputation back. This is a way of doing it.

Nevertheless, the game looks innovative from the IGN review, so this could be very good indeed. I just don't agree with your description of Gamespot. 

Wow, everyone was saying prayers for NMH after it bombed in Japan, talking about how it should have been on PS360, how it should have sold more, etc. Now that it's getting some attention due to the American release and suddenly all this pity has turned into hate.
