Seriouly guys, never judge a game for a single review.
check this out

I AM ALIVE - xbox 360 arcade game

IGN:

Rate: 4.5 Bad

GameStop:

Rate: 8.0 Good

See what I mean, I only tested for like 15 minutes and game looks fine to me. Then why the fuck IGN gives it such bad rate?

The IGN reviewer thought that the game wasn't very good. It was just the persons opinion. Which is why you always take reviews with a grain of salt.

Typical ain't it.. lol.
I have seen scores ranging from 4-8 on this game..
It can't be that bad.

Like darth said, i think it just comes down to personal opinion in the end.
Not like the old days where they used to rate every game great, and advertise it.. lol

I bought the game yesterday... I played it for a while I would give it an 8. It's a good game, we can expect more from an Arcade game that cost 1200 points.

I think you guys should give it a try.

I am starting to get a feeling that IGN have strange rates, I bet my ass they sold their reviews.
