Thanks JayWood and Euphoria!

Review embargoes are getting pretty stupid when you don't get a single review one day before release.


You're welcome haha

Seriously though review embargos does kind of suck but I see why they do it too. They want to get those 1st day preoders/sells and if the game ends up being below expections for people then they wont buy it.  I've heard some people on this site predict a 90 metacritic or high 80s so if it doesnt get that then will those people be upset? It was kind of like the Halo thing where we had some people predict a 96+ so when it got an 87 everybody threw a fit. People really care about reviews so with some games especially  a new ip has to really depend on good reviews.
