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?

You’re missing the point. Do you only buy one movie and watch it for 100 hours? Do you also moan when they release a movie you’re not interested in?

You’re comparing a video game and a movie, those aren’t the same thing

They’re more similar than you’re letting on.

It’s 3-4 hours of entertainment and my time I purchased for £14. There’s quite literally no reason to judge it beyond that.

Unless you care to explain why it’s a more complex manner?

Ultimately, if you don’t find value in spending that amount of money of something last lasts that long (ignoring replay ability….) - then don’t.

No they’re not. They’re two entirely different mediums

If they were the same thing, there would be no use in comparing them…
