There's nothing to worry about, I hope.
I know this isn't the same but Paper Mario 2 received a 6 or so from EGM. People were freaking out, too. But it turned out that EGM was one of the very few magazines or sites that disliked the game or thought it was average.

It'll probably get better reviews in the upcoming weeks. You guys are overreacting.

Paper Mario and the Thousand Year Door got a 9.0 from EGM, which is nothing short of incredible as they are very strict reviewers, especially on RPGs.  No, I have a lot more faith in EGM than most reviewers.  What I find hilarious though is the people using the Play Magazine interview to show this isn't unanimous.... Play Magazine also gave Sonic the Hedgehog a 9, it's average score was a 43% on Gamerankings (a 4.3).  If anyone can find a spec of credibility left in Play Magazine please tell me, but so far I only see 2 reasonable media outlet reviews.  A 5.5 from EGM and a 7.5 from Gamepro.  Obviously we really need some more information but this certainly is not a system saver for the PS3, a tripple A title, or Game of the Year.
