7.5/10, and everyone else scores it in the 90's, with some giving 10's.
I'll trust everyone else, thanks. | Mr. Boffo

And it's worth pointing out that gamespot gave it a 7.5, which they call good. Only in video games do people act like anything below an 8 / 10 is an insult. | wmatistic

I wasn't saying it's an insult, I haven't played the game to know, but considering how glowing all the other reviews were it was a bit suprising. When IGN is saying the controls are a revalation and it's the best Zelda game ever then Gamespot drops in with a big ho hum, something isn't matching up here. | KJames199

Was not referring to you. I had heard of people like this one.
I had really high hopes for this game but like many others, I'm cancelling my preorder after that 7.5.
I've been depressed lately and I was hoping this game would lift me from my low spirits but I guess I was wrong.
This is the first time I've felt like crying in a long time.
