I expected this game to get trashed by most reviewers - instead, it is actually doing quite well so far (presently 81 on Metacritic). Except for two 70s (from NGamer UK and Game Informer), it's all 80 and up:
Nintendo Power, Eurogamer, Games Radar, Edge - 80
Worth Playing - 82
1UP - 83
Official Nintendo Magazine UK - 84
IGN - 85
IGN UK - 86
GamePro - 100 (5 stars, translated by Metacritic to 100)
Even disregarding the last one (given by the same guy who gave Conduit 3.5 stars while completely disreagrding the multiplayer...) it's still a solid Metacritic 8 .
And beyond the review scores, actually reading the reviews, it seems they all actually enjoyed it. I wasn't going to get this one (at least not anytime soon), but I've changed my mind. Let's see if I can get my wife to join me in co-op.
