^ X-Play isn't exactly the place to go for reviews. They will talk about a game like a dog, but still give it a 5/5 (Halo 3 single player). Then, they will praise a game to the heavens and give it a 4/5 (Burnout Paradise, and a host of others). I place ign above all places for reviews. Edge gives out high scores all the time, and gamepro is a joke. And when you are grading out of ten, anything seven and below is bad. You can see they only use six and below to describe truly horrible games, average games don't get sixes, they get seven point fives. a 7.8 translates to a 3/5 in terms of stars.

Bwhuuuh? You couldn't be more out their.

Edge is the harshest respectable reviewer out there. You owe edge an apology man.

IGN's average review score is 69.5

Edge's average review score is a 63.4.


Edge is far harsher then IGN. This is even more apparent when you consider the fact that IGN reviews more games aka horrible shovelware... making the difference even more.

For example Edge Magazine has 35 Wii reviews. IGN has 165 Wii reviews. How many of those extra 130 reviews do you think were big games? How many do you think have extremely low scores?

You owe Edge a HUUUUUGE apology.
