They do include foriegn reviews though. I've also heard of GameReactor, so I don't see why it can't be included. Nice see finally see a couple reviews though. Here's to hoping the positivity continues. I'm going to write-up a user review myself once I finish up the remaning levels of fail and play some more, hopefully get a decently well written user review to a few sites.

IGN is down a staffer right now on the PC channel and currently operating without an EIC at the busiest time of year. Also the Editorial Director of the site just left. I've been twisting their arm to cover it, but it's an uphill battle right now. I'm going to try contacting the guy who runs the XBLA/WiiWare content and see if maybe he'll pick up the slack.
Some other publications told me straight up they're not covering it because they can't afford to cover every game this time of year and "it's just another shooter."

Yeah, I kinda hope that the approachability of GRR and the availability of SG as a bundle for just a little extra will generate a little more love for SG along the way. The PC version is really very nice, and the NUXX mix addresses a lot of the criticisms levelled at the 360 version whilst still being a damn fine game. I'm really very proud of both games .
I've been trying to play SG again today on my oxboxen but still can't get my brain around it I'm afraid, I wish I could. It took me about 10 attempts to get past level 13.
It's great to see some good reviews appearing now. Encore! Encore!

I'm in the same boat as you, although I have the PC version. I can tell that there is a game in there that I would absolutely love, I just suck so badly at it that I can't seem to get to the point where I get lost in it. Gridrunner is a whole different story. I can't tell you how many hours I've pissed away in the past week just having one more go.

I suppose I should not say a thing like "I picked it up again since about 6 months I wasn't playing it, I just had "a go" a night
while chatting things with Jeff and I've done 30 or so levels in a row
Mind you while testing/doing things I got a point as "I think I had enough ( for now ) of SG"
