So basically the moral of the story is: Trust nothing except your own gut. Okay, gotcha.
...Seriously though, I can't help but be fascinated by all this. We have something that could've been an amazing spectacle of good old-fashioned awesomeness, and instead wound up as something that'll probably end up as nothing more than a footnote in the pages of gaming history.
Heck, I don't even need to acknowledge official "reviews"(Wasn't going to anyway...) to do the math here. I don't think I know any other game that managed all this.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't something similiar happen with Metroid Prime as well? Like, I recall hearing that the initial reception wasn't exactly golden at first.

...however, you also have things like Wind Waker which got a lot of backlash at first, but some time later came to be known as a classic.
