Well any article from a bigger news site or publication dealing with video games are in competition with EDGE, so I dont see how thats relevant. I just see it as maybe some sort of deal was reached between Nintendo and EDGE. Not necessarily anyone paying anything, but Nintendo cherry picking that review. If EDGE gets to publish their review on October 12th, then everyone should be able to. 

As far as i understand it, EDGE gets 1st review exclusivity with Nintendo. Not sure if it applies to all of their games but i know it did to BOTW too. As for breaking the embargo date, it was a leak, possibly leaked as the magazine went to print. Not sure if the magazine is physically out yet. I went to 7 stores looking for it without any success last week. Am gonna try again today.

and what was the score for BOTW? If this happens all the time, then I guess its just something I have to get used to. Can you name some Nintendo games that EDGE didnt give a perfect score to that came out much earlier than other reviews?
