Though I said I would wait until after Christmas, I changed my mind and bought it anyway.
( Here is what I have to say about it. )
With all of that said, however, I do think it was pretty poor form on the part of some TellTale employees to review their own game on Metacritic. Although, I do think it is incredibly ironic that it was Gamespot of all places that apparently broke this story, given their own lack of review integrity. Also, if you read a lot of the low user review scores on Metacritic, they're giving the 0 scores not because the game is actually that bad, but to "teach Telltale a lesson" or whatever crap. As such, you can safely and completely ignore the incredibly far too low overall user review average score when trying to determine how good the game is. I would personally give it around a 7-8 at least (and that's on a 1-10 scale, mind you, and not on the "7-10 scale" used by most professional reviewers these days).
