Well since it clearly says at the end of the video that the 8.2 was a typo and that it was meant to be a 7.8, simple brain functions can deduce that it is a 7.8
Gotta love people freaking out over a 0.4 point difference as if it changes what was said in the video. Also IGN, anything 8 or more should be considered great not good.
This game is way too entertaining! Trying to run around gracefully, but flailing around like an utter cock. One of the most entertaining games I ever played on a Mac
I love this game! I play it with my little brother and we always laugh our crotches off, it's hilarious. Some challenges can be pretty frustrating, and mouse controls are just plain horrible.
i think games like "the stanley parable" already proved that you don't need challenges in every game... this physical comedy actually works better without difficulty that makes you want to avoid making a mess! but besides that, this review is pretty good.
Says only great things about the game, and his only complaint is that it could've been a little longer. Gives it an 8. IGN, you need to stop doing this. Unless a game is a huge AAA release, you take off 20% of the score for one or two VERY minor issues, some of which are largely preferential, after spending the entire video praising the game. However, when a AAA title does the same thing, you give it a 9.0 or higher. Just because a game had lots of funding shouldn't immediately add 10% to the score, and conversely, a game being relatively indie shouldn't immediately detract 10%.
I hope when it comes out for PS4, it has a demo with it... The game looks fun, but I don't want to buy it without knowing what I'm getting myself into.
Last game I played that had me laughing out loud was Portal 2. Some friends suggested Boarderlands 2 to me but that just turned to be nothing cramming as much references and dick jokes in as possible. This looks genuinely funny so definitely buying it to support more games like this. It's discounted right now on Steam so be sure to jump on it if you're interested.
The 4 hours I got out of this game made it worth every penny. Wonderful, just wonderful. Also, only a true man finishes this game with a keyboard and mouse, controller feels cheap.
Yeah, it's stupid. What could possibly constitute a .1 increase or deficit? Hmm maybe if you could change the colour of Octodad's suit IGN would have given it an 8.3 instead of 8.2.
What's the point in giving a game a 7.8/10? I'm not complaining about whether or not that is a good score, I'm just saying why not give it a 7.5 or an 8? A 7.8 is a meaningless and arbitrary score.
videotroll72 I guess you are correct in a way about that. But to a consumer, there is a difference between a 1/10 and a 10/10. There's no real difference between a 7.8 and an 8, yet it appears as so and this can even detract customers from buying a game The only way a 7.8/10 should ever exist is if a reviewer states a 100 things about a game and says 78 of those things are positive, which, of course, would never happen.
I thought this game was annoying and frustrating. I didn't find it funny in the least bit. It reminds me of that stupid surgery simulator game with similar mechanics. Games like this are why I torrent a game before I actually spend any money on it.
Did anybody notice the 7.8 rating yet final veesict was 8.2?
Mr dodo gaming yeah I was confused lol
It's IGN. What do you expect?
Is it 7.8 or 8.2???? WTF IGN.
Well since it clearly says at the end of the video that the 8.2 was a typo and that it was meant to be a 7.8, simple brain functions can deduce that it is a 7.8
Seemed like an 8.
an 8.2 to be more precise! :D!
So then if it's 7.8 and 8.2 then this is ign's highest rated game. Good job Octodad!
ign have given plenty of 10s..?
Sbrff he believe he added the scores resulting in 16/10
Saberhuman aaaah...pretty stupid joke hahah :P
Sbrff Coming from the person who didn't quite get it at first.
tosspot86 yeah, i didn`t get it because it was stupid
I like to think octodad is just Zoidberg
Considering the creators have already added a human skin in the workshop, I could see that becoming a skin. I HOPE that becomes a skin.
Octodad, why not Zoidberg?
Gotta love people freaking out over a 0.4 point difference as if it changes what was said in the video. Also IGN, anything 8 or more should be considered great not good.
But Octodad is GREAT! I had more fun playing Octodad: Dadliest Catch than I did with GTA V.
If you guys want a 2nd opinion i JUST NOW posted my review for octodad! come check it out! duckscanfly
This game is way too entertaining! Trying to run around gracefully, but flailing around like an utter cock. One of the most entertaining games I ever played on a Mac
I cant wait to get this on Ps4
Likewise
this has been asked already but......WTF is the score of this game? 7.8 or 8.2?
7.8, said in annotation that they screwed up
minglee oh thanks. this was so confusing at first
Can't wait for people to make a stealth-level for this.
This game cracks me up. reminds me of the Tim shaferdays when games on the ps2 and xbox were fun, we had the triple As but we also had FUN
This is the kind of game where you watch Let's Players like Game Grumps or TBFP have fun with it.
This game look's like Friday night out on the town with people drunk stumbling everywhere.
Did you give it a 7.8? Or a 8.2?
The IGN editors are blazed 24/7, they don't even give a shit.
Wait.. 7.8? 8.2? Which is it IGN? Two scores are fine, I guess..
This game is hilarious! You can check out a gameplay video on our channel!
I love this game! I play it with my little brother and we always laugh our crotches off, it's hilarious. Some challenges can be pretty frustrating, and mouse controls are just plain horrible.
“Laugh our crotches off” is not one I’ve heard of before. But yes it’s a funny game.
I just got this gem on a whim.. And I must say, this is wonderfully refreshing! Charming, creative and funny!
Only problem is the length.
Not even a mention for the greatest theme song ever? Truly nobody suspects a thing.
Just finished this game on the PC. I love it and Im hoping they continue the series. It would be foolish if they didn't. Such a fun game!
M. Kirby You can play the first game but its crap
Xd
So is it a 7.8 or and 8.2 WTF???
We all struggled with cutting that damn grass
Wait it said 7.8 at first, but 8.2 later. What's the actual rating?
i think games like "the stanley parable" already proved that you don't need challenges in every game... this physical comedy actually works better without difficulty that makes you want to avoid making a mess! but besides that, this review is pretty good.
I have it on the vita and I wouldn't want it any other way
Why did the score change from 7.8 to 8.2?
Octo-Dad has some moves.
Feels like trying to rearrange plates in Skyrim.
A couple hours?
Hell yeah!
Totally buying this.
how the hell do you mix a 8.2 with a 7.8?
Says only great things about the game, and his only complaint is that it could've been a little longer. Gives it an 8.
IGN, you need to stop doing this. Unless a game is a huge AAA release, you take off 20% of the score for one or two VERY minor issues, some of which are largely preferential, after spending the entire video praising the game.

You dont review a game, starting from 10 and going down, you start from 0 and add on to that. AND, read the written review.
Broken Age or Journey aren't AAA games but they gave those games 9.5... Get your facts straight bro.
Great game it comes tomorow on the psn store for only 13.99
Was bummed out when IGN revealed the final level in the review. Kind of puts me off against watching future reviews in fear of spoiling the games.
I hope we get this for ps+ when the os4 version is launched
Saw it on Steam, instantaneously bought it. Nice that it's $3 off too.
is the rating 7.8 or 8.2 ??
is it worth to buy on ios
when I try to invest it says portfolio empty
nvm this was meant for another video gosh im so stupid
Will it be on disc for PS4
I think so.
Is the dude reviewing this also the adventure game geek?
what console is this for?
PS4
really!!! YAY!! ima get it :D
LwSvnInJaz also pc
John Rivera PC
2 minutes in and no mention how the control system actually works... jesus
wanna download this on my droid, oppo r819 but im not sure whether it would work well or not
Looks like one to pick up on a Steam sale!
When will this be on PS4?
***** Nice, it looks awesome.
Today lol
dillon oswalt Just saw. XD
I hope when it comes out for PS4, it has a demo with it... The game looks fun, but I don't want to buy it without knowing what I'm getting myself into.
You can go to Target or Gamestop and play the demo there
Last game I played that had me laughing out loud was Portal 2. Some friends suggested Boarderlands 2 to me but that just turned to be nothing cramming as much references and dick jokes in as possible. This looks genuinely funny so definitely buying it to support more games like this. It's discounted right now on Steam so be sure to jump on it if you're interested.
If I was reviewing this game I would have given it a 5.
THIS GAME WAS AWESOME,I found all the ties and you forgot to mention all of the awesome easter eggs and refrences like Super Meat Boy in 3:03
Lol man you know bout that to huh. Oh the months i had to go through to forget it
The 4 hours I got out of this game made it worth every penny. Wonderful, just wonderful.
Also, only a true man finishes this game with a keyboard and mouse, controller feels cheap.
I prefer console gaming, but we are all entitled to own own opinions. But I agree about you saying its wonderful.
What a wonder lighthearted game.
Definitely going fo buy.
Is this on ps4
7.8? Or 8.2? Lol
Seven point eight point two.
This game had a damn impressive mobile port...
And then the Switch came.
What's wrong with the switch?
So initially the game gets 7.8 but in a matter of seconds the video is telling me it got an 8.2 !! lol
This should be a 10.0
7.8 or 8.0 ?
Man, first it's 7.8, then it's 8.2 and now you bring 8.0 into the game.
When is the ps4 release date? I love that they fucked up the end score SCREW scores! Just listen to what the guy had to say
he doesnt have 8 legs
2 fore each leg 1 fore each arm 2 fore his stash
Another game that is (according to it's score) BETTER than Destiny
Destiny is shit
Free for PS4 PS plus
source?
I love this game at home
cons
*the last level was hard*
first it says 7.8 and then it's 8.2? what??
ign gave 7.8/10 for pc and 8.2/10 for ps4.
but the thing is, that it's not even out for PS4 -.- that's screwed up
Not out for PS4 YET*
Nojus Sustumas d'oh!!! >.
?
Shouldn't 8.2 be great not good
To bad you guys show us mlst of the levels already!!!
This looks brilliant.
1:28 right MINECRAFT
Saw that too! XD
lol uberhaxornova for the win
the way he talks makes me piss my self :P
It took me 1 hour and 14mins to finish
I was trying to beat the last boss fight but it was so fucking hard i started to cry XD I was using keyboard and mouse XD
Octo-Twerking for the win!
7.8. Wait NOOO 8.2. WTF.
FUCKING BULLSHIT! THIS GAME DESERVES AT LEAST A 7.9...
MICROSOFT PAID IGN TO GIVE IT A LOWER SCORE!
7.8... so its basically an 8. I hate the .1 scale. It is much better when its a simple .5 scale, but whatever guess.
Yeah, it's stupid. What could possibly constitute a .1 increase or deficit? Hmm maybe if you could change the colour of Octodad's suit IGN would have given it an 8.3 instead of 8.2.
Man this is the best game ever made ao shut up
Oh my god, I love it! x'DD
Moving around looks very annoying
Believe me, it's really frustrating
this looks more like a fun toy than an actual video game, depending on the price its completely up to the buyer whether this "game" is good or not
Yep.
Them moves

all number scores are meaningless and arbitrary though.

reminds me of chicken boo

it's a trap!
It's a nightmare! If only I would've never went to sleep! Some fear the monster under the bed... I ended up marrying it!!
i give it a 9.8
Played the demo. Dumbest shit I've ever seen in my life.
Is there a demo for PC?
3.5/10 Octodad!
