*CHOKE*
That does it. Death to IGN!
That's two crappy reviews in a row that I've read from them.
Lots of the writers there seem to way too set in their ways. I don't think this guy even understands that Platypus is meant to be a retro sort of game.
(Although Anthony says they screwed up the gameplay, so I guess it's not as bad as I thought...)
As usual, the person who reviewed the game doesn't seem to understand the ratings system. He decided that since he didn't understand it, he would just bring every score down to 5 to rub his opinion in.
Waiting for Gamepot's review, which will hopefully be a lot better.
So far the user reviews, made by people who aren't paid by big organizations that spam even their paying users with advertisements, are looking good.
(Although none on IGN or Gamespot... you have to hunt a bit)
Edit:
There's a nice post here by the lead programmer for the Platypus PSP port at MJ.
It's a shame that nobody seemed to check Wikipedia to see the title's history (including a link to Squashy Software).
