I will buy the issue tomorrow. The only gaming magazine I still read.

Xenoblade review, Pandora's Tower/Skyward Sword/Kirby previews, From Dust review, Journey preview. I'm also interested to find out what they thought about Bastion. Looks like a very interesting issue.

Don't trust people with Kim Possible avatars and the upcoming Phineas & Ferb game on their wishlist though. This magazine already handed out two scores of above 90 in the last two issues before the current one. 3 in 3 months ain't exactly "barely anything".

Meh, Super Street Fighter IV AE and The Legend of Zelda: Oot 3D. Can't really blame them for giving out great scores to the top dogs in their respective genre.

Bastion got a 7.

Ha, that's why I love this magazine. They are some of the best reviewers out there in my opinion. Always unbiased and never influenced by hype. Bastion is a good game and I enjoyed playing it but I don't understand why it got an average worldwide score of 88 (actually it's not even the scores themselves that bother me but the ridiculous praise it got from many reviewers for being innovative, while in fact it's not innovative in the slightest, just a well done action RPG like dozens of others before). Must be the Summer of Arcade bonus. Sorry, I won't derail the thread further.
