lol i don't know why anyone takes ign seriously... they've been dishing out some really low scores


...in my opinion that highly boosts their credibility. Hasn't the "anything below 8 is terrible" review scale been criticized for years? Seems like they are using the full scale now. If so, this is a justifiable score. The only problem is not everyone at IGN got the memo

You can't spell "IGN hates Sony" without IGN.



Their BEYOND division really hate videogames lately.



IGN been on a roll lately. Gave Double Dragons Neon a 3/10 for being a Arcade game.

@sundin13

wasn't really what i ment to say. I didn't really mean that because they suddenly started to give lower scores than usual they were not credible but that, in my opinion ign has always been a bunch of immature ckackheads (not that there is anything wrong with that) and not professionla jurnalists.

the "they've been dishing out really low scores" part was meant to be an additional observation



I'm not going to buy it, anyway. At least, with a 5/10 review, I won't feel like I'm missing out on some gem of a game.

Hmm mixed scores so far. Looks like a 7-8 rated game, as I expected. Definitely not a 5 though

A 5 is justified, because it looks notably worse than that other fun racer (calling the genre "kart racer" is heavily Nintendo biased).

Perhaps. Except IGN thought Modnations was great and a 9/10 game, yet this is basically Modnation 2.0 and they gave it a 5/10. Critic inconsistency is a bit of a worry as of late.
