Well Metacritic accepted the review....

Yes, but that's one reason why I dislike Metacritic; they include reviews that are very poorly written. To be fair, let me show you another review that is far better than this one, but is a lower score as well.

This one gave a 7/10

I found that both reviews that gave less than a 7 weren't great, but the one you posted was the worst of the two. In general, I tend to use Metacritic to find a wide variety of reviews to read; not for the average since any average joe can get a review on there (so it would seem) and have it count towards the average. So, I read reviews for content and that one in particular is severely lacking in it.

That was a much better review, but if I had to assign a score to that, it wouldn't be a 7/10. They said the music was brilliant, it was a lot of fun to play, and the Karma was a great idea, but the graphics sucked, and there was nothing that really blew you away. That's more an 8 or 8.5 than a 7. What are these people, Edge?
