i don't trust any first party magazine game reviews. Even game reviews of sites like Gamespot, I'm still leary about. Thank god for Gamefly

agreed

NP also gave shadow the hedgehog and sonic riders 8's as well.

If anything I bet they're being paid off by sega.

I think they're just massive Sega fanboys. After reading the NiGHTS review it seems like every Sega score is based solely on nostalgia.

These guys are huge Sega fans (if you need proof, check out their reviews for Shadow and NiGHTS) so I wasn't exactly suprised by Samba getting a high score.

Wario Land looks good.

I think so.

But all those games got scores higher than their deserved rating. I know now to not trust NP on their reviews. They'll probably give MadWorld a super high score. Which I don't think it deserves. Yea, I went there! :P

I'm sure it has more to do with Nintendo/Sega links that their own Sega love.

You've barely even seen the game and you're saying it doesn't deserve a high score? Not to mention the talent of the devs behind it...
