I can't believe IGN's opening statement

"By the look of the game it's pretty obvious, but it definitely needs to be mentioned: Kirby's Epic Yarn is a younger skewing game, and as such, experienced gamers might find less of a challenge here than in other high profile games. Kirby may take a hit from an enemy or fall off the world, but players are not punished with the finality of losing a life. So, with that said, beating Kirby's Epic Yarn is not a challenge, and you should know that right from the start."

I mean, the guy must not have played Uncharted, Assassin's Creed II, or Prince of Persia. All of which he probably considers a high profile game. In all 3 of those when you "die" you only get sent back a very small portion of the game making the experience overall fairly easy. But then again, if they ever made a game as hard as the original Super Mario Bros most media outlets would probably claim the game was too hard.

And you surely haven't played Uncharted on the hardest difficulty. Prince of Persia was still rather challenging even though it didn't matter if you died. Haven't played AC2 yet but the first was sometimes hard.

But it's not the first I hear Kirby is easy. I read it in a preview once.
