An exception to the rule
I have come to terms with the fact that anything named "badger" is crap, and despite it's continued resistance to termination while its under judgement, I will continue to vote as I see fit.
That being said, this is a welcomed chance from the moronic and misleading crap that is usually stamped if the logo "badger:" though the title of the flash says "Ikaruga Review," I was surprised to see that the flash was centered around the Review of Ikaruga.
I know, I was shocked, too.
So, I listened through the whole thing. As reviews go, I realize that they are mostly opinionated and heavily deal with someone's preferences. Seeing as how the Star Syndicate is not the first that comes to mind when I think "games," I'd take their review with a bit of salt.
Despite that, the review was informative and went through the ups and downs of the game, without giving up too much of the plotline, including little hints and tidbits to help you out. Accompanied with a movie of what appeared to be the full first level of the game was pretty much a dose of ugly. The sound quality was terrible too, as with all of the Microsoft Sam-like voices.
I gave you a 2/5. You should be happy though: that's alot better than what you usually get out of me.
