Regardless of scores, it's going to be really interesting to see what reviewers say about it. People who got the game early have had hugely varying opinions, with some aspects of the game getting a lot of hate, and others a lot of praise.

I do kind of hope it gets some good scores though. Would be fun to see how many posts we get in the theme of "Bias! Paid off! Conspiracy!". I suppose that goes both ways though.

Plus you get to add another game to your thread.

I really do need to update that :p I've been slacking. Hopefully Kirby stays at 75+ too so i can add that.

What again is the POINT in review embargos?
Is there any other reason than "NOT trying to hide bad scores"?

Serious questions.

Edit: Ha, apparently the Kirby review thread has already digressed into the themes i mentioned, but for negatives rather than positives. Oh internet :p

The Kirby thread hasn't had much trolling actually. Oh I'm sure they're saving all their bullshit for this thread. 

Time to get ready.



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

The biggest benefit is they stop sites rushing through games the moment they get them so they can get their review up first. This way everyone has time to play through it properly, and everyone's review gooes up simultaneously (which can also make for a good marketing push). How they decide when an embargo ends is a completely different story though. Often seems completely random, but there are occasions where it's abused (such as ACU).

This will depend on the reviews :)

But some already set themselves in the "no matter what happens, I'll be good with everything"-position which is perhaps the best way to deal with the incoming, biased, unnecessary and totally wrong reviews

Can we call all reviews above 7.5 click bait? Oh please, can we?
