Wii Fit IGN UK Review<\/a><\/h3>\nIf you want to skim though then just focus on the intro and conclusion as that is where the meaty bits lie.<\/p>\n
If you have read my previous article and then the review you should be able to very easily pick up on the connections. The reviewer, self admiringly has a hard time dealing with the fact that he is reviewing Wii Fit under the requirements of a video game review. He doesn’t even consider Wii Fit to be a video game! There is a great misunderstanding of audiences going on here which is why the reviewer is so dumbfounded. Instead of continuing on and deeply analyzing why this review is so problematic (which would just be a whole bunch of regurgitation anyways). I want to leave this with you readers and let you think about what this represents. Here are a few quotes which I find most interesting:<\/p>\n
\u201cDespite certain similarities, this isn\u2019t a game and standard review criteria aren\u2019t going to have much sway here.\u201d\u201cAdmittedly, nothing here really pushes the Wii to its limit\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cBut such is the hard life of your videogame reviewer. Still, for the sake of completion, let’s break the whole thing down into its component parts and slap a great big number on the end anyway. Actually, sod it, it’s going to get an 8.0. Anything else you want to know? Then read on.\u201d<\/p>\n
