This is about that GameSpot review: http://www.zeldainformer.com/2011/11/gamespots-tom-mcshea-speaks-about-his-skyward-sword-review.htm

If you're too lazy to read it, the reviewer is a fucking moron. Plain and simple.

I saw that too, what a moron. Sounds like he's trying to cover his own ass for making a mistake and then "changing his mind" about it.

Storm showed me some other Gamespot reviews, it's like those guys don't know gaming at all. Not that review scores are that important anyways, but I've read some really good (and fair) reviews which goes a long way to an indecisive gamer. No review from Gamespot should be taken with any creditability after this... :stare:

Got the game! It's so pretty @_@ The sword controls are really good! Very flexible and responsive. Not that far yet, but I'm really looking forward to seeing what the game has in store! :D

Awesome! You guys are so lucky it came out in the UK today, we still have to wait another day or so. Glad to hear everything's good, I can't wait to get my hands on the game.

@Lotus: I haven't really followed Gamespot before, but after this, I will take anything they say with a grain of salt.

Fuck him. If he doesn't amend his review and admit his mistake he should get fired. It's such a shame that this review will reach a lot of people that might not even buy the game or give it a try because of HIS mistake.

Who really cares? The game isn't going to bomb because a small percentage of the people that read his review didn't realise he's a cock.

Apparently there are a lot of people who said they aren't even going to give SS the time of day because of that review. The fact that he won't change his score even when he's clearly wrong is upsetting people because it's ruining the scoring on Metacritic, which a lot of people use to make a decision. If the game hits bad sales because of this...a lot of people will be upset, and it might influence the next Zelda.

To be honest, I've never even seen its reviews, but it always came off to be as GameFAQS's derpy little brother.
