So, I find myself to agree with most of the scores Eurogamer dishes out, but I can't help but feel that they kinda missed the mark slightly with this one:

Since I haven't played the game yet but plan to pick it up I want to ask you guys, is this review representative of the game? Does it ring bells?

Ultimately, is it worth 10 bucks?

well I've purchased it, but due to it being finals week I've hardly had a chance to play it. I only got about 35 minutes clocked, but from that experience so far it's a well executed game easily worth $10.

That does seem low. I'm still a little peeved at the low scores that Halo 4 got. It hasn't left my 360, I've played the campaign through on Heroic and Legendary, and I look forward each week for the next Spartan Ops. It's my game of the year and yet it sits at below 90 on meta thanks to a couple hit seekers. I doubt Eurogamer is hit seeks and if they did it wouldn't be with a niche title like Nano Assault, but 40 seems far too low for what the reviewer admits isn't a bad game. Maybe the reviewer doesn't like shooters. If that's the case then they should find a reviewer that does. All the low Halo 4 scores were by people who wanted it to be more like COD. Video game journalism is in a sad state, that's for sure.

F u eurogamer!

.. Interested and will get this game.. maybe Eurogamer also thinks its suppose to be a FPS shooter like COD perhaps?.. just like how IGN reviewed zombiU with COD googles on.. and got disappointed it wasnt anything like COD.

The eurogamer review is ridicolous.

I actually haven't started this thread to bash eurogamer but to get some insightful input on the game. I purchased Shin'ens Fun! Fun! Minigolf and was pretty disappointed by the game so I don't think the developer is without flaw. I just don't want to step into the same turd twice.

it looks good to me but I will have to play it before say if it is worth the price or not

"Eurogamer" is a stupid name for a gaming review website anyway.

It says

"It's not a bad game in the conventional sense - it's not tedious or broken - and it's even moderately amusing, but it's not especially refined and I'm not sure why it exists beyond trying to score a quick buck during a deserted launch window."

To quote only part of the sentence is just silly.

The thing is that Eurogamer is UK based, right? Well here's my problem. Nano Assault hasn't released over here in any shape or form, be it 3DS or - obviously - Wii U. So it's a whole new game for us over here. So I don't see how the game can be a quick cash in if it's fundamentally "not a bad game". I guess I better prepare for the inevitable 1/10 for Mighty Switch Force HD and Mutant Mudds HD, because if they don't score them like this they are pretty inconsistend. IMHO of course.
