You work with games right? Tell me, if a preview says the game is trash but the end review is a 9/10 because the game ended up being great after polish, would it still be fair to quote the preview in contrast to the review? They are not in the same context because they are done in different situations or times, even if somehow the opinions didn't change much from preview to review, you just can't use them in the same context because opinions can change at anytime.

I can't argue with that, however this is not to that extreme.

When someone goes from saying the game is trash to 9/10 it's pretty obvious they changed their mind; they might even go on the record of saying how wrong they were in their first impression.

I haven't read the IGN review completely, but did they ever say "We thought it was worth the hype, but actually it's not?"

Let's just say that I stay the fuck away from previews these days for good reasons, they never really mean jack shit until the game ships or the final product is in my hands or HDD/SSD.
