Let me channel my inner knight's shovelry ... digging commence!
You're going to be popular...Could you add our review too?

FYI we gave it a 6.5/10, mostly because the controls aren't as tight as they should be.
Thank you

Out of curiosity, did you have vsync on? I found that by disabling vsync, there was still no tearing, but the controls felt much better. Not sure if D3DOverrider was taking care of triple buffering or not. But the way I'm playing it now, I definitely disagree with the controls not being tight. They feel fantastic.
Wait, what? The controls aren't tight? I don't mind negative reviews whatsoever, don't get me wrong, but something must have been wrong with your setup in that case. There are plenty of things that can introduce input lag on a PC, especially badly configured V-Sync. Maybe something got borked on your end?
The controls in this game are 100% spot-on when running at non-vsynced 120fps here. Like, the tightest controls I have ever played with in a game of this sort. Hell, possibly in any game.
I'm going to mention this to him and see if this was the issue. From what he told me this was his main gripe with the game, from what it seems - everything else were more or less just pet peeves. Our reviews aren't final either, so we can definitely update it if this is simply just an issue with his rig.
It could be anything really, but the game should have no controls issues whatsoever when working properly. Sad to hear that ended up being his experience with the game regardless, always frustrating with those kinds of technical issues

I STRONGLY disagree about the controls not being tight. I personally found the controls to be really great. This is from my experience playing the 3DS version since last night.
If somebody would've asked me about the controls I would've said "Really great, really really tight."
I know, it just seems like an odd way to present it. Having nothing in the 'bad' column makes it sound like the game has no flaws. The reviewer should have at least put some of the negatives (not that great on 2nd/3rd run, too easy, etc) into that column. Seems weird to leave it blank.
It's not a AAA game, so obviously they can't give it an 8 or higher, come on man.
Has Projared ever given a 10/10 before? He generally gives lower scores and explains why.
Reviews don't work by starting from 10 and "taking away points" like some think. Like most grading systems, it's about points EARNED, not points lost.

These guys... it's the downward stab from Zelda II, not the pogo from DuckTales.
I'll get this on sale. It's sounds like a one and done deal, despite having NG+.

I initially had that exact Bad entry. However, I was convinced by my coworkers that it would be unfair to list that as Bad (the capital B is serious business) since we don't often play games multiple times before we review them. So, I talked about that element in my text but didn't single it out. Was that a good compromise? I'm not sure. But I really don't believe there is anything necessarily Bad with this game; it just wasn't quite as good as I wanted it to be.
Where's the Escapist review, Jim?
:/
Yes, the 3DS version has stereoscopic 3D running @ 60fps.Will 3ds support 3d?
It's glorious.Has there been any mention of how the 3D effect is on the 3DS version. Due to this factor, I am torn on whether to buy it for my 3DS or PC. Decisions decisions....
When's this going up on Steam?
Yes, the 3DS version has stereoscopic 3D running @ 60fps.
It's glorious.
They have no announcement yet or at least that's what the Yacht Club twitter replied to me when I asked them when they'll release it over here.No Euro release date then? Any rumours?
Jim's review has been up for a while now, don't think it's been posted here yet:

3.5/5
Even if that score is updated after some controls tuning, people need to stop riding the asses of reviewers who dared to score a game lower than they think it deserves. Reviews are opinions, not rules of law etched in stone. Fucking pathetic shit in every single review thread.

Until I see a spreadsheet for a review with a point-by-point breakdown for what each part of the game is worth, I'm pretty sure no one reviews a game like that.
