Insomniac really blew it out of the water with this game, it was absolutely incredible. They took the best parts of the first 2 (already great) games and pushed them to the max, while still adding so much more to make it easily the best by far. The story was also just so well done. Definitely a game of the year contender, and I have no idea what that IGN reviewer was thinking. Can't wait for new game plus later this year, I'll definitely be replaying it.
