Who reviewed the game. Was it an IGN PC staple or a freelancer?

That's a shame, reviewers should be independant. Even if the review sucks, it's the reviewer choice, let him do his job!

No, it is nothing alike. They gave the game a 2, despite IGN UK giving it a 9.1, especially when they have no idea about the game. If you look at gamerankings, the other lowest review is 6.9, but most are closer to 9s

Backpedaling is worse than a bad review.

Worse by far.

lol

did any editors even read the review before it was published???

Not this review, it was appauling

Doesn't matter. This just means their reviews don't mean anything. Their God Hand review still fills my head with bloody fury, but if they changed it it would be an admission of their own incompetence and they sacrifice all journalistic integrity in that scenario.

@ tremble: If the reviewer is too stupid to realize he is judging a game by the wrong standards, then it should be called back.

IGN did the only right thing in this case.

You can't expect a manager game to be compared to a football-play game. Completely different genres.

Nice of them to accept their mistake....
