!!SPOILER ALERT!!

Got me copy of issue 77 through the post today...yes, the one with the review of Zelda: The Wind Waker in it!
So, for those of you who don't want to find out what it got yet, close this window now!

It got...








96%

Haven't had a chance to read the review just yet, but from the glimpses I've had, the NGC lads have got plenty of criticisms for it! The main one seems to be that it's only 40+ hours long due to the fact that Ninty have dragged it out a bit with all this sailing back and forth. :/

Still, I'll let you lot see for yourself.
Oh yeah, and is it just me, or does that score for 'Behead the Undead' for TS2 seem a bit low? Mine's over double that!

The free gift is a tips book, and a Metroid Poster.
The Star Letter was something to do with storylines, I forget.

Luigis Mansion was given a high score simply because it was a launch game, and they had to give SOMETHING a 90% score.
And Tony Hawk's 3 is the worst in the series, by far, as it was just THPS2 with rubbish levels.
And NGCs directory is so very messed up.

Luigi's Mansion certainly didn't deserve 90%.

80-85% but rating it higher than Pikmin, Resident Evil, Eternal Darkness, Monkey Ball, Tony Hawks 4 etc etc is just retarded.

Another thing, NGC seem to have the strange idea that Tony Hawks 3 is better than 4.

WTF?

I don't have a problem.
I just don't think Mario Deserved 96%, is all.
It wasn't THAT good.
There's a game they rated TOO highly, because it was the only really must have Cube game.

Becuase they are lame in comparison.

96% is quality. What is your problem?

I doubt if CUBE even have a copy of the game. There review was more of a preview with a score.
