I never really like them since they changed to their big version of the magazine. Also what I find hard to beleive is that they completed the game in 15 hours, that and Eternal Darkness (well it might be possible for ED).
I really hope that they can redeem themselves from this, because the rest of the magazine is good but not the best. I find CUBE to be the best so far, NOM is good because of their walkthroughs and tips section, G-force because of it's free DVD with every issue (hopefully it will have a DVD with Starfox video clips on it).

I'd best go out and find an NGC!
Don't judge a book by its cover, as they say!

> Then how come 3 magazine so far have rated it above 94%
Cos different ppl have different opinions!

As for the scoring system you are right, it is bad. many good games like rsei evil are only 2 points ahead of bad games, making them sound not that good, but if it was 100 it would oh been 94 and the others 78 or something.

> That review stands out like a sore thumb to every other review of SFA
> that I have read so far, even American reviews.
I think its the person doing the review more than anything else, becuase of rare leaving is a sad reason to give it a low score.
I hate racers, and in my view burnout is the best ive played but i still wouldnt give it more than 7. This reviewer could of hated RPGs so he would give it a low score, no one knows, but im sure some people will write in.
