Well GTA4 got 10s, and it was pretty much unplayable to me, so reviews aren'e always right, especially this gen.

I see where the "Wii gets bias" thing comes from - there were 3 fake reviews for The Conduit before it came out, along with that horrible Gamepro controversy (boy that was a HUGE day). Also, IGN had the wrong information when they did the COD: Modern Warfare Reflex review.

I prefer not to comment on the whole thing, but when I see something like this, I bring up my trusty ol' Naznatips post:

"People, maybe you can't tell cause you weren't there, but the mainstream gaming press hates Nintendo. It's not something grounded in logic. They complain about Nintendo not showing enough hardcore games, but when they do they complain about 3rd parties getting no attention. Nintendo fills their booth with half 3rd party and half 1st party games, and then the media complains that Nintendo didn't have enough good stuff of their own to show. They announce sequels to games that will NEVER sell as well as Wii series games, just for the Hardcore (SMG2, Metroid, Golden Sun), and people still complain.

As an all-platform gamer who just spent 4 days in a row with these people, allow me to present you with a shocking revelation: the press is biased."

This, combined with their debacle over GTA IV scores (you do not give something a 10 when there are so many objective flaws even if minor ones, no matter how awesome you otherwise think it is), is why I say these people have no credibility.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
