Although the game is months away from our borders, Destructoid's Jim Sterling has some rather nasty(Not safe for 14) things to say about Edge's review of Sega's Let's Tap.

Namely, the 8 out of 10 score is too low. By about half. And he wants this travesty to be repaired, somewhat like other console exclusives being released this year (but not on Wii).

Let's Tap, buy it for the glorious exclusivity, keep it for the amazing audio experience.

Yuji Naka is truly a man among boys in the game industry. I can't wait to see what he comes up with next.

I still don't get the point of this game and can't believe it got an 8 to begin with.

Can someone explain this to me? I really don't understand. What's wrong with an 8? Was this a joke or something?

For those of you who don't understand, the article is a satirical reference to this article:

I think the Destructiod article is a joke of this article here.

Yes, it is a joke. Brought on by PSXExtreme article criticizing the score of 7/10 for Killzone 2 from EDGE magazine. Whether or not this is Sony marketing is unrelated to the fact that said blogger decided to spin it by hyping a game that most people have never heard of, but scored higher than KZ2 in the same issue.

Let's Tap speaks for itself, as it does things Nintendo didn't even intend the Wii to do. This game is unlike anything else out there, plus it is coming out overseas, unlike 428.

Who cares about some person's opinion? Seriously, I'll play it for myself and make my own judgment; one review means nothing nor is the ranting of another person's opinion about the review.

Pointless fussing over dumb stuff.

Got it. Now it's funny. Let's Tap IS original and might even gather a following, but it's certainly not for everyone.

I'm quite surprised Lets Tap got an 8 - I'll have to get me that.

As for Edge's score for KZ2 I've never played the game but if I listen to everyone else it's got to be a solid 9.

I lost respect for Yuji Naka ever since he abandoned his own creation and left it to rot.

Edge magazine doesn't hand over high scores so easily. I think only 6 games have ever scored a full 10 and very few earn a 9. Make of them what you will, but in terms of publishers, developers and industry insiders, they're one of the most respected gaming magazines in the entire industry. They know their stuff.
