IGN just dropped another shameful game review. 5/10 for Mario and Luigi: Brothership. We need to talk. This is getting out of hand.
When games like Dragon Age: The Veilguard and Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 score high with 9’s, while Dragon Ball Sparking Zero and Mario + Luigi Brothership receive surprisingly low ratings given their high quality, it raises the question: is it time to stop clicking on IGN’s reviews and move on forever? Let’s break down what’s going on with these ridiculous review scores and why IGN’s credibility is destroyed.
Links to things mentioned in the video:
My Sonic X Shadow Generations Review:
My review from 10 years ago about GameSpot’s 5/10 review for Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (they later changed it to a 6/10 due to backlash):
My Nintendo Alarmo review:
Credit for Dragonball Z Sparking Zero…
2:08 insert Spider-Man laughing meme with J Jonah Jameson as the Pokémon community. I genuinely couldn’t stop laughing. Also they gave transformers one like a 6 or 5 out of ten when it had like 80-90% on rotten tomatoes. IGN IS A JOKE they don’t care about backlash they just want to make money they gave garbage marvel movies like the marvels a 3/10 movie a 7 or 8 out of 10 same thing about she hulk they gave that garbage show like an 8 out of 10.
6:49 IGN confirmed to be on team magma’s side lol.
Very high chance they just didn’t actually play the game since if they actually did that they wouldn’t have given it such a horrible score.
Nintendo Unity did a YouTube community post review of the game and posted gameplay footage I’m certain IGN used footage from trailers and tv spots and such and didn’t actually play it and since it leaked like a week before Halloween they probably used leaked footage from YouTube or something.
I think you should take a break break from the internet.
its a bull shit review iplayed the first game and it was good idk why they gave it a bullshit score
The bad IGN's Mega Man Star Force 1 and 3 reviews are also awful. IGN ruined Mega Man Star Force.
I'm brazilian.
It’s middle of the road for a mario and luigi game, but still fantastic.
1:53 You mean late next year? There’s no way they release it Early next year at this point.
What pisses me off is that after sonic x shadow gens came out Nintendo fans have been bittersweet for no reason.
Looks like IGN is giving nintendo unfair scores for suing palworld. Even if they dont explain why
These IGN fans at the bottom of these comments sure are IGNorant 🤣🔥🔥🔥
No, it isn’t just Sonic Generations. Its Shadow Gens and Remastered Sonic Gens. Both amazing games in one package which I think deserved the 9. IDK why you just said its just Sonic Gens. Maybe you have only played Sonic gens idk.
But I see what you mean.
0:12 they were rushing through the game. Yet another god hand situation
sonic generations is not above sparkling zero
but shadow generations
Why is everyone so bothered with the IGN review? Bit pathetic if you ask me. Just one review guys..
You can't bring up the review scores of other genres of games since they're nothing like the Mario and Luigi game. Black ops 6 being a 9 out of 10 to ign can not be compared to Mario and Luigi since they are not the same genre of game.
IGN continue to go the way of Kotaku and prove just how low their credibility is.
My man sounds like Moist Critikal and I'm here for it
Who knows, it might actually be mediocre as the 5 implies. It could be the same situation where so many were overrating Wolf Children because it was made by Mamoru Hosoda, in this case it'd be mostly-trustworthy Nintendo, when in actuality it's a kitsch, mediocre cash grab of a film.
Aliens Isolation still stands as IGN’s Worst Review.
Dramaqueen!
Omg you people are total clowns. Game deserved the 5. Guy gave valid criticism. Take it or leave it. Anyone man cause they gave game X a 9, but gave game Y a 5 or 7 or whatever needs to learn how reviews work. 🤡
I really hope that this game isn't worse than Paper Jam, with IGN giving that game a 5.9/10
Bruh ign is so biased and honestly this new mario game deserves a 8 at least
HOW DARE THEY GIVE MARIO AND LUIGI A 5/10 THE NERVE OF THEM!!!! every game in this RPG series is great even paper jam for its flaws is a good game I already didn't respect IGN but now I really don't like them at all and will never watch their reviews again
sounds like you need to stop watching IGN. I quit giving them clicks and views back during that Tropical Freeze review. Good video man!
Im not buy this game cuz the game is not fun because for me is the performance issues i see alot people complaining dock mode and i don't like to play hand held mode.
I kind of agree with the reviews tbh
I thought people go by user score?
More reason not to trust IGN besides the Sonic was never good nonsense
Alien isolation deserves at least a 7 or 8 the AI in that game is through the roof the amount of times I died in that game I lost count tried to not get caught only within 2 seconds the xenomorph caught me off guard
8:03 need we forget fossil fighters frontier
IGN gave age of calamlty a 9, even though that game has the worst performance from nintendo ip games.
Remember when IGN review Sonic games like Unleashed and the Black Knight? That was 16 years ago and people disagree.
Ok can we leave sonic out of these videos plz. Thank you. Like reviews aren't a who's better then who. It's just a review. Like don't get ur panties in a bunch over it.
You are just as bad as every other moron that makes irrelevant comparisons to other IGN reviews instead of actually addressing what was said in the review.
I would respect half of IGN's review but that's their only opinion so it's okay for me to let them criticize Mario and Luigi Brothership but they'll change their minds after giving Mario and Luigi Brothership another chance.
Some of his reviews were a bit harsh while a few of his were somewhat true probably.
ign often gets backlash but this time people are really angry, they're probably going to give it a 7 or maybe even an 8 out of 10 because there isn't a single person on the internet that agrees with them
If the game isn't gay it is awful to IGN
