Marqui's profound display of fail
Sáb, 09/10/2011 - 14:10
A ways back, PC gamer gave Spiral Knights a 5.1 score, which got on pretty much everyone's' nerves - especially since he did a terrible job of reviewing the game in the first place.
thought everyone would be happy to know that PC gamer redid the review and gave the game an 8.0 score, saying:
"Our original Spiral Knights review was found to be factually inaccurate and so it has been redone with a different reviewer. We apologize for the confusion."
and
"The original review was factually inaccurate. The reviewer failed to follow proper reviewing procedure and has since been let go from the review staff."
So yeah. The more you know.

I can't find the original review, even cached pages have been updated already :(
From what I've seen though, Spiral Knights originally didn't get a 5.1 -- they got a 4.1.
/edit: Here's the review from PCgamer, that did give it a 5.1. Apparently the grade is heavily influenced by the reviewers' annoyance with the energy system: http://www.pcgamer.com/2011/07/26/spiral-knights-review/

@BiggestLoser: I meant the original review from Gamrreview, not PCgamer. The OP made a mistake confusing the two.
@Marqui: ImageShack isn't a popular image host, because of all the advertisements and pop-ups they host.
I personally recommend Photobucket, or imgur if you don't want to sign up anywhere.
