in that context, every decimal place matters.I wonder if Dan says "My penis is 5.9 inches long" instead of just saying 6.

I think that he decided that it was not worthy of a 9, but better than an 8.5.
A .1 makes a difference, a very small one, but a difference nonetheless.
There's a couple of wrongs from both sides on this:
- Quoting preview commentary that does not represent the game's final judgement is misrepresentative.
- 8.9 is essentially almost a 9. It's a very high score. Trying to argue otherwise is highly pedantic.
- Angry Joe's constant namecalling and colourful insults during the whole Twitter exchange paints a terrible picture of him. He's the one that needs to grow up.
Another casualty of people acting dumb on Twitter for the whole world to see. Merrhh.
I think the mystery question that most people want answered is exactly what that difference is.
This is a bit of a "really grinds my gears thing" for me, i really don't like it when someone tells someone to grow up then they immediately follow it up by being childish. If your telling someone to grow up, it really does help to act more mature than the person your telling to grow up.That Angry Joe guy has no manners, at least reply back in a professional manner. He tells him to grow up then resorts to name calling.
IGN arguing over 0.1 point. Jesus Christ.
Could someone for the love of all that is good in this world explain to me the difference between an 8.9 and a 9.0?
Who's Dan Stapleton and IGN?
Ive heard of Angry Joe but not of the them.
Man this guy is a moron. But that doesn't let Joe of the hook, either. He's a moron for fueling the fire; for fueling the fire to every business out there just so he can 'get the point across' or 'do a service for his viewers and the gaming world', so I don't support either of these idiots.

Glad to see where America is headed.
What reputation?
two primadonnas arguing about who matters most. Where are my 4.9 minutes?
8.9 is a good score.
9.0 is an amazing score.
He said it right there!

Seems like Dan is upset about Joe using an over the top quote from an IGN preview of Titanfall and implying it was from the review.

Godamn the fear the "real" journalist are displaying lately towards prominent youtubers/bloggers is so weird. I am not sure if there is a big drop on their sites or they just see guys like joe getting a million hits on their reviews but it's repulsive.
Do your jobs better , stop parroting whatever pr the companies hand out to you and maybe people will start taking you seriously again.

It's pretty much as close as anyone can realistically get in practice.Angry Joe is the definition of the term "man child"
And why did he start it like he did, anyway? Months after the facts. Why now?
