The review embargo ends at 2pm tomorrow UK, source gamingbolt. Not a great sign I’m afraid. Gamespot probably a 5/6, ign 7, pushsquare 6, amongst many other average scores. Maybe a 8 the highest it’ll get from someone.

And Dead Space Remake doesn’t have a review embargo date either and that’s not great.

Tend to think if reviews come out nearing a week before main release it’s a good positive sign, any later, game is garbage.

A day-before-launch review embargo is not a great sign. : \

@mogan: Considering Square gave review codes only to outlets that usually write very soft reviews that may criticize, but never rate below a 7, did Gamespot even get a review code for this?

This is Cyberpunk all over again.

@mogan: agreed, my initial hype for this title is now just a nervous eyebrow raise. I can see it being average at best. Fingers crossed I'm wrong but no way a day 1 purchase.

They're hiding this one from reviews for as long as possible. Almost no review codes sent. Embargo removed like a day before launch. This is EA/Ubisoft level of a shit game they want the clueless public to buy before seeing/reading anything about it. A real dumpster fire game.

@hardwenzen: Yeah, it is messed up by not giving any reviews, but it does not matter for me as I rather wait and see how it is received.

I don't know about this one. Sometimes it looks cool, but sometimes it definitely doesn't.

@thecupidstunts: Which means to me to wait and if it is not too bad wait for a drop in price and a good one which may mean a long one but that is okay.

@thecupidstunts: Exactly how i feel. The combat and world look interesting, but some of the dialogue i heard in the demo just doesn't sound good.

@thecupidstunts: The story sounds fresh to me and the combat mechanics look good too. It's everything in-between that I am like meh. I'll follow this game to see what the reviewers say when they have a chance to check out the full game as it is. Very curious for sure.

@gamespotter_198: I'm thinking 6-7's on scores, but it's always nice to be pleasantly surprised.
