The only thing that game lacked was a decent story. It was perfection, otherwise, for that genre. This guy is crazy lol.

lmao that is one of the worst reviews I have ever seen its up there with the infamous god hand review.

Complete garbage review

Probably Metroid fanboys. I would have given it a 6 too.

Played it again today though. It's actually a pretty good game.

8/10

I was definitely surprised by the score since I loved the game when I played it. Don't understand why Gamespot disliked it so much

It is just one person's opinion. He raises some good points. Sure the score is too low, but if you look closely at the game, there is not much design which hasn't been done before. That may be fine for you, but some people need innovation. I also agree with boss battle things. Especially in DK returns, I hate how if you die in late stages, you have to redo everything (also for those annoying vehicle sections). I don't mind a challenge, since I adore the Souls games, but seriously, at least put a checkpoint to make it fair and not so frustrating.
