Does the magazine need to have the disclaimer in the review if it has it clearly in the magazine? (if it even has it we don't know yet)
Some would say no but it probably hurts both the game and the magazine more for not having it in the review even if it does have it clearly elsewhere in the magazine..
If doesn't matter if they only did the adds because they loved the game(both having the magazine in the game and the adds for the game in the magazine) because it raises suspicion that the score was not from the merit of the game alone.

Maybe they are thinking the amount of people who are suspicious will be outweighed by the amount of people who by the game and or magazine.
