XD Sorry in advance if this has already been made into a topic.

So IGN US has reviewed Monster Hunter Tri, giving it a reasonable score... I won't spoil it, I'll let you see for yourselves :D.

I was actually expecting far less, so I'm very happy ^_^.

Damn, i agree with the rabid ign comments

“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

I'm somewhat annoyed as well, though it could have been a lot worse.

Though I'm more annoyed (and I normally hate to make comparisons) about how highly they scored Splinter Cell: Conviction in comparison to this.
Splinter Cell: Conviction - Presentation: 9 / Graphics: 8.5 / Sound: 9 / Gameplay: 9 / Lasting Appeal: 8.0 - overall 9.3
Monster Hunter Tri - Presentation: 8 / Graphics: 9 / Sound: 8.5 / Gameplay: 8.5 / Lasting Appeal: 9.5 - overall 8.8

Oh well, I guess it's personal taste. Still can't wait to get this game :D .

It's odd that "lasting appeal" don't make the overall score higher.

And also,

like who can point out the difference between a 91 game or a 93 game? That's too precise and incorrect. So I don't think ign rating a review 88 makes it any worse than rating a 92. Because it's also not by the same reviewer everytime. Review scores aren't exact. They just get happy and put a number down thats in the ballpark
