How does IGN get the games before its release

Because they are a major gaming news and review publication, publishers send them a copy of the game before release dates.  Sometimes they'll even get it and have time to review as much as two weeks before street date, as seen by the very early review of GTAIV, for example.

That review barely has any details (oh, I see you linked to the 2nd page), but it does sound good. VT 09 has a lot to live up to.

Nice score. There's a very slim chance of me getting this but the score makes me happy.



Pixel Art can be fun.

Eurogamer. 5/10 Holy crap



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

By the sounds of the high reviews verses Eurogamer, the Eurogamer reviewer most likely has absolutely no hand-eye coordination and barely played the game long enough to learn how MotionPlus controls work for this title. Sad really because the game is getting praised and this'll just pull it down like so many Wii titles before it..
