What a month for the DS!


I actually can't wait for Bangai-O Spirits. Anyone know if 82% is a bit harsh? (Bearing in mind it is Gamesmaster, of course)


It got the same mark in NGamer. Bear in mind that it got a 10 from Eurogamer and a 9 from both Edge and GamesTM, though. It's basically super-hardcore, so presumably GM just found it a bit too tough to warrant a higher score.


I think GameCentral gave it either 8 or 9 as well. They keep raving about it anyway.

I'm intrigued by VP, I might give that a go. I'll wait for more reviews, though.

Great scores for the DS games, Spore in particular is a pleasant surprise.
Which DQ is that?

The Sam and Max score seems good, as well as Braid and GW2.

I can't be the only one wondering how the hell they've managed to cover all this lot with the amount of staff they have. No wonder there's so many mistakes in GM as that's just strawberry floating ridiculous.

They do have a lot of freelancers covering the reviews. Pell does stuff for GM, and I think Mike Gapper does, too. And the NGamer staffers tend to do the Nintendo games. Then you've got Kath Bryce on handheld duty, leaving a couple of handfuls of reviews each to the full-timers.

Too Human is getting a lot of criticism. And so it should, because there shouldn't be bugs in a game that took so long to make.
