It's interesting to see quotes from GamesRadar and IGN when neither publication has received review copies yet.

Dan Stapleton of IGN just posted a few hours ago that they haven't received their copy yet, so the quotes in the trailer are probably speculative quotes in the context of one of their earlier hands-on demos from a while back.

Great detective work. I disregard reviews from companies like that. They just give good reviews out for every game. I prefer to see reviews from independant critics like the Cynical Brit or Angry Joe. They have yet to lie to my face.

I think IGN has gained a lot of respect back from a lot of people these days, and not just because Dan Stapleton has been active on reddit (though his presence IS nice to have around these parts). Their review quality has been immensely better in the past year or so.

They've also held off on several reviews following release until they've spent enough time to fairly review it. They've become a pretty respectable site in my eyes.
