It's not like they start with 10 points and remove some for each thing they don't like... IThe rest of the game isn't perfect and utterly flawless..

It's not about IGN having a different opinion, it's about them giving an unjustified score.

People are really trying to defend IGN on this one. I wonder how many of them would still be, if this game was a Vita exclusive instead.

IGN gave the horrible porting mess that is Silent Hill HD collection a 9. They gave Master Chief Collection a 9 too, and it's main attraction hasn't been fixed yet. I think the Agenda it's obvious.

How are they full of idiots if they gave the original 9.9?

Also how about reading the full review and not just the bullet points at the end?

You do realise those were different reviewers who actually played Nintendo games for over 15 years. IGN is jsut a shell of it's former glory.

However, I do agree that he shoudl read the full review.

What about the score is unjustified?

Oh boy, we still have people trying to paint IGN with an anti-Nintendo agenda?

Oh no, a 8.7... at least Galaxy got Game of the Generation thanks to IGN and thank goodness they gave Smash WiiU a 9.8 and Mario Kart 8 a 9 or even thanks that they gave A Link Between Worlds a 9.4.

iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.
