Oh come on.. they overrated it a little but it was a B-quality game at worst... maybe low A...
Sure I can pull out all kinds of games I dislike Gamespot's reviews on... like most anything from Midway that was released on the N64 (and isn't a sports game)-- Gauntlet Legends, Rush 1, 2, and 2049, and the Cruis'n games are all greatly underrated there (IGN incedentally has a very good review of rush 2049... and give it a score over 9, as opposed to Gamespot's which was a 7.something...)
Oh, and when Gamespot gives those big games lower scores its usually because they deserve it... not always (Mario Sunshine didn't deserve it that harsh) but sometimes.... like MM. Their review was very, very good for that game... right around what I'd give it...
