A Kotaku reader wrote in to point out what he calls something fishy at GamePro. Apparently about two weeks ago the magazine pubished a review, not a preview, but a review of the yet to be released and constantly delayed fighter Dead or Alive 4. According to the reader, and Metacritic and Game Rankings, the mag scored the ethereal fighter a perfect 100 percent.
Metacritic attributes this quote from page 38 of the mag s January issue:
If looks could kill, DOA4 would be called Murderer's Row. This game is beautiful; even while you're beating the tar out of your opponent, you'll notice that your surroundings are among the finest you've seen in any fighting game... Hands down the best installment in the series.
I suppose they could have gotten an early version, but could they have received a finished (and apparently perfect) title if it s being delayed repeatedly? Who knows, maybe...
Either way, this couldn t have come at a worse time.
