The Let's Tap review is up there with the worst reviews they've ever printed, only one mode in that game was any good, and that was only good for an evening or two in multiplayer - even if the race mode had been released as a stand-alone downloadable title for 500 points, gamers would have been right to feel short changed. Poor show by Edge with the 8. But having said that, they weren't reviewing a £44.99 system seller, they were reviewing a £19.99 party game - not quite baragin basement territory, but as cheap as a store release gets. The score was way off where it should have been, but you can't compare budget game scores to those awarded to blockbusters, otherwise every XBL/PSN/VC title awarded a 7 of above could be moaned about in reference to Killzone 2. It doesn't work like that - otherwise a fun, throwaway 800 point downloadable title like Alien Hominid, weighing in at a couple of hour's play, would automatically have to reveive a mid-range score in concession to reviews for everything-but-the-kitchen sink epics.
