    This is really fucking low of Kotaku. If they had been granted rights to an exclusive review, they wouldn't have hesitated, but now it's been given to IGN and now they want to shit their little underpants.

    Fucking sensation-seekers.

    That's not to say I agree with exclusive reviews, but the way Kotaku and its writers have been shitting their pants about it all over twitter and their site is pathetic at best.

    I'm not going to lie, I found the review to be rather funny, I also think it may be in simple jest. Although, if they also made a noise about it on twitter, well, that's another story.

    I found it funny. Although I don't really follow or read kotaku at all so I didn't catch it with all the peripheral nonsense in the background.

    Yeah, the review itself would have been funny had I not known the context within which it was written. Basically a bunch of gaming journalists from different sites lambasted IGN for getting and taking the exclusive review. Now this isn't a bad thing, because I think exclusive reviews are pretty shit myself, but none of the sites these journalists write for would have passed up the opportunity for an exclusive review themselves.

    The comments section is full of gold

    How are those fat checks from IGN working out for you Jason? Should've expected a "YES" from you. I swear all the review reviewers on this site are being paid off.
