Go to the review itself. On the IGN page. The only time theyve ever done that for a game, ever. See where theyre also telling you to buy the other games. See where they have that IGN woman actually in the game itself (more time spent on her than Tali). The IGN ME3 review stinks of corruption. |
I've read the review, I saw the new format. Could it not be that they used that format on Mass Effect 3 as it's a pretty big game, will get many hits which will mean more feedback? That makes a hell of a lot more sense to me, and that's what a few other editors talked about (not the reviewer), and mentioned doing it for other major games aswell. Someone recommending buying the other games has a lot to do with the fact that stories are tied together in the deepest way possible and less to do with a corrupt reviewer. I've seen plenty of people say this. Jessica Chobot doesn't only work for IGN, she also works for G4, G4 gave it 5/5, are they currupt aswell? She's a fairly big name in gaming and heavily involved in the industry, her doing some voice work isn't anything unusually out of the ordinary.
Also, many people didn't even have a problem with the ME3 ending, many enjoyed it. Is it so hard to believe that the reviewer just happens to be one of the many who didn't have a problem with the ending? I mean fuck dude, the games Metacritic is on 94, he gave it 95 (9.5), that's 1/100 off the average score.
I've also been listening to the guy for quite a while now, he loves the series, it's clear that he loved ME3 at preview events and it's clear that he genuinely loves the game. if he's been faking everything he's said about that series for over 50 episodes of a podcast, he deserves an oscar.
Here's a relevant video featuring the reviewer: http://uk.ign.com/videos/2012/03/12/mass-effect-3-opinion-video
