haha I could imagine that very well.

If there is a blonde girl in the game d21lewis will buy it no matter if the game is good or bad.. You're like saving the entire industry by yourself..

The embargo is said to be midnight tonight.

It's always a bit worrying when the embargo is lifted the day the game comes out but then again there might be a good reason we just don't know about.

from what I read the game is only 4-5 hours long. so value is only $5. I wouldn't get it.

I've been playing it over the weekend. It's every bit as absurd as I was hoping for. I'm at the start of level 3 after finishing the first boss.

if you trust famitsu:

"Lollipop Chainsaw" (PS3/Xbox 360, Kadokawa): 9 / 9 / 9 / 9 - (36/40)

game looks pretty bad from that video.

I didn't have this game on my radar at all.... until I watched that trailer you just posted. It actually looks kind quirky and weird in a good way, so I'll give it a rental.

I would say this type of attitude is one of the industries biggest problems and the reason why developers get bonuses paid on metacritic ratings etc. 

You don't want to pay full price if it's less than 6/10. That's not 6/10 in your opinion but 6/10 based on the aggregated opinions of reviewers who are taken into account on websites. In fact I would say most gamers wouldn't even think of a game on a 10 scale in their own head. You don't finish a game and go 'huh that was about a 7/10'' or when a friend asks go ''Yea it's a 6.5/10''. You think about the experience as a whole.  I just finished spending around 50 hours in Dragon's Dogma and not once in my mind did numerically grading it pop up.  

I'm not even entirely sure what being less than 6/10 means. So if you liked it but it got below that on metacritic you would be annoyed you paid that price?

It's a Suda 51 game. I can probably write the average review from sites like ign etc for you right now. Weird and interesting experience, solid if unspectacular gameplay mechanics, some very funny bits and some bits that fall flat, graphically okay but has nice style, light on content - 7/10. 

Although you do possibly have grounds to be annoyed at paying $60 anyway. Over here in the UK it is launching at £30 instead of the normal £40. The equivalent to a game launching at $40 instead of $60 in the US I suppose.

Heard the game is shorter than a CoD campaign. Someone also leaked footage a few days ago, the gameplay looks stiff and clunky. I'd be worried too.
