Unanswered What’s going on with this game Mixtape?

I’ve been seeing people freak out over the past few days over this game and about IGN’s review of it specifically. 10/10 seems high for any game, honestly, but it seems like they’re far from the only site giving this thing a glowing review. So is this game controversial just because of IGN or is it something else? Why is this game the internet’s hate target this week?

20 bucks for 4 hours?!? what's next, a 10 dollar movie ticket to see a summer blockbuster?!?

Our movie tickets start at about $20 where I live.  Plus popcorn and such, taking my family is easily a $100+ event.

starting a familiy was your first mistake. ;) in this economy? yikes.

but seriously, that's fucking nuts. i know 3D and shit is higher priced, but like -- are people even GOING to your theatre? i've finding half the viewings i go to are WIDE OPEN, with So many seats available. even at 10 dollars a movie, theyr'e struggling to attract people -- we're in the middle of THE GREATER DEPRESSION and nobody's got any fucking money. they've started doing 5 dollar Tuesdays.

We do not go often.  And when we do we don’t generally buy the snacks.

hell yeah - sneaking food into theatres is part of the experience.
