No Episode 5: No Going Back Review from IGN?

LilacsbloomLilacsbloom
in The Walking Dead

I was just curious, does anybody know why IGN never did a review for No Going Back? They reviewed all the episodes of the last season and then did a full season review of it after that too...but I'm just finding it odd that about two months down the line after Season 2 finished, they still haven't done any kind of video review on the finale, despite having covered every episode until then and being the ones behind the Playing Dead shows too.

Does anybody know why? o_o

    Its not like IGN reviews aren't paid reviews.

    IGN writers are paid for giving good reviews. I wouldn't trust their shit.

    I never believed that to be honest, even if one reviewer gives the game a way too high of a score for it's quality. Every reviewer there has their own opinions.

    There was also an instance where an ign employee wrote a bad review of Kane and lynch while they were advertising it on their main site and lost his job over it. It was quite controversial.

    I know many people hate it, but to be honest, I know many people who LOVED and didn't shut up about it. Think implying that was a paid review is not really nonsensical. Especially since that's your opinion on the game. Having played it, I do think it was a waste of time. But many people thought the unravelling aspect was very enjoyable, although it was pretty shit.
