GamesTM, a British magazine that generally score lower than the Metacritic average, have given Hyrule Warriors 8/10.
I read my brother's copy of the magazine at my parents over the weekend, so can't post scans. Basically, from what I remember, they said:
1) There aren't as many modes/characters etc as Dynasty Warriors fans would expect, but what is there is polished to a higher degree than a Warriors title.
2) The game is 'as good as' Dynasty Warriors: Gundam 3
3) The elements lifted from Zelda, particularly Z-targeting and boss battles, add a lot to the experience.
4) They call it a surprisingly successful spin off.
8/10 from GamesTM is pretty good, as far as I'm concerned.
