Lost FA status mainly because of poor info on the reception of the game. I'm sure with a little work we can return this to FA status.
Shouldn't the metacrtic review box score be based on reviews, not votes?
IGN shouldn't be in italics in references (etc.) - noticed this on ref 81
"The game was generally well-received by the media, and was given high scores by some of the most prominent gaming critics." - this is kinda meaningless, as the reviews box and subsequent commentary should give this impression...
First para of reception is awkward...basically just listing scores for the first half, then you start quoting etc. It basically needs re-organisation; eg. quote IGN when you first give the score (more than just "incredible")
"Further criticism came from the website Adrenaline Vault" - if it's a website, it shouldn't be in italics (if it's a magazine, it should).
A lot more general receptive commentary is necessary for such a major game...plenty of VG FAs do this well, but basically a short paragraph like that isn't enough...
Hmm that's a bit too different a game really, and it's brand new while this is about ten years old. Any exsample you could recommend?

Interesting - Bole, is this somehow related to why you added Brawl's entire reception section into MGS's reception section (without changing anything at all)? I question that action. --

"Members of GameFAQs ranked it the 8th best" - 8th best WHAT? (same with next sentences)
