TruckOSaurus on 19 November 2012

I'm guessing it's a review embargo thing since IGN mentions their review will be up tomorrow but I can't wait to see how the game gets reviewed. Of course, I'm buying it no matter what but I'm really hoping it does well both in reviews and in sales.

Anyone found an early review of the game in some dark corner of the Internet?

 

EDIT:

Review embargo over!

Metacritic :74 (19 reviews)

It will probably sell 200k ~ 300k first week. It will probably average a 80 meta. That being said, I have not found a single review.

November 20th, so tomorrow. In comparison, Hitman: Absolution, which releases tomorrow as well, has 22 reviews already.

Well IGN is giving it a 9 and the metascore will be 84. Aldo reviewed it at 8. Plus you can check my sig.

Was there a leak of some kind or is that your prediction?

I, know, everything. And they reviewed the game during the livestream. All I needed to do was add a score to their words.

This explains everything lol haha 

Seriosly though has anybody seen any advertisements for this game?  I don't believe very many people even realize it is getting released tomorrow?

Nope, they are hyping up God of War Acension (even on their YouTube channel) as we speak.

Sony is absolutely horrible when it comes to advertising.  This is something they need to improve upon.  Although it might have something to do with the financial situation they're in so that might explain it.

I thought God of War Ascension was coming out in 2013?
