This is not that insane idea, right?Yes, in the case of bigger reviews such as IGN, absolutely. RPS? LOL, right. RPS has a habit of being brutally honest and somewhat anti-AAA. I sincerely doubt anyone would even consider buying them, and it's even less likely they'd go for it.

I'm *still* having issues this morning. This is odd.
