IGN's latest Review Debacle: Unless it's above an 8, kill yourself

Gamer Limit writes: "This is a direct response to the hundreds of comments that IGN received recently due to their Prototype review. After giving it a 7.5, which is a respectable score by their own standards, IGN received a myriad of these types of choice words:

"kongii29: go review something else pussy u dnt deserve to review a great game like Prototype...go fuk urself..hahahahaha..."

Really? Run for the hills, reviewers! If you give any popular game less than an 8, prepare to be assaulted over the internet (and physically, when the fanboys track you down..and they will). So what exactly goes into scoring a game below an 8? Is a 7.5 really that bad?"
