yeah i looked at those reviews, they really dont count as real ones because you can see they didnt take handheld games that seriously so a really good one was a 10, as youll see, they only give a final score, like they do with mobile games. (perhaps 1 day mobile games will be taken seriously like handheld...)

What about the 7.5 IGN promised me?

Jokes aside, I think it should have at least gotten a 9.8. It really pushed the Wii to limits that no one knew it could go.

Ocarina of Time for the n64 got a 10 from ign

i havent seen any other 10's for games other than handhelds. i did see a 9.9 for san andreas, which, by the way, i have never gotten more than 30% finished. the next chance i get when there arent any good games coming out, ill have to jump back in, i just hope my mem. card is still full.

I thought it was interesting at the very least, and I did notice that they only gave a final score so that was my second hint that they were too lenient back then.

Also, I can't say this is for sure, but I found this on another board in regards to the wiiconnect24 feature:

"To brag to your wii friends when you do something important in the game, it will send them a message and they will have the fancy blue glowing light and then they will see that you did something awesome in galaxy." I won't link to it because the guys who run this board don't like competition as far as I know.

very good score on IGN...very very surprised

this is not fanboy talking but do you think it has a chance for game of the year?

BTW

GAMESPOT PERFECT SCORES
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 PS2 10.0
Chrono Cross PS 10.0
Soul Calibur DC 10.0
Ocarina of Time N64 10.0

I agree with Ocarina but...tony hawk? come on....and chrono cross would get a 9.9 in my books.
