Your wrong. It's usually done with games that have problems. 

I was right but you obviously missed the point with your eagerness to try to prove me wrong (better luck next time).  All three of those games had embargoes that were lifted.

Those of you waiting to find out just how awesome Super Mario Galaxy 2 is gonna be can find out on Monday as the review embargo is lifted at 6am BST. All initial previews have been positive and it's due for release in Europe on June 11th.

The review embargo has officially been lifted for those websites that received early copies of Mass Effect 2 (not GameBanshee), so it comes as no surprise that a couple of critiques are already online.

Uncharted 2 review embargo lifts...


Lol you do know that reviewers recieved review copies for those games weeks beforehand and the embargo put on the games where lifted over a week before the games released. I'm not sure on Mass Effect as I didn't follow it but that news article you posted on SMG2 was writen on thursday may the 20th, it said the embargo was lifting on the following monday may the 24th and the game was released June the 11th.

Thats over 2 weeks before the game released. Secondly for Uncharted 2 this forum had an official thread and reviews started coming in on the 27th of september for that game. Check here   http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=2653604

 

It seems microsoft don't want any reviews getting out until after the device releases which wasn't the case for those games. Yes they had embargos for stopping reviews leaking too early but thats because review copies were sent out about a month before the games released. Thats not the case with MS.
