New review (i think)

this review contains the slightest of spoilers, but a spoiler none the less... http://xbox.ign.com/reviews/15524.html

7.4/10 - oh dear!

can someone tell me which points are fair and which aren't...


Edit: look, a link to all the IGN Oddworld features: http://xbox.ign.com/games/15524.html

Gameplay
In short, it's just not fun. Actions and goals are drawn out, simple tasks are made frustrating by the controls, and overall there's not enough charm to mask the repetition.
AS IF!!

Actually up until recently the IGN review was a "Insider's Only" review... which meant that unless you were an IGN member you couldn't read the review.

So although it's not new... I actually waited until the 18 November to put the news on my site... which was when the review became public (maybe it was the day before... but near enough).

There's no use putting a link to an article on your site if only selected people can view it IMO.
