We try to tip our hats whenever we spot a magazine cover that catches our fancy, but after having received numerous complaints from the jerks in accounting, upper management recently revised our office dress code to prohibit the wearing of sombreros, bowlers, and Davy Crockett caps. Our heads have been bare ever since the decree was passed down, and we haven't been doing much hat-tipping as a result. Needless to say, we really miss our silly hats.Edge's cover for its July issue is just what we needed to lift our spirits. The UK magazine has a reputation for attractive layouts, inside and out, and this month's artwork is no exception, heralding Nintendo's victory run on gold. Though the image pasted above captures the basic gist, you can see a shot of the full cover after the post break. Ironically, only one Wii game made Edge's review pages this time around -- Mercury Meltdown Revolution. Ignition's labyrinthine title garnered an 8 out of 10; quite impressive considering the magazine's traditionally tough scoring.

That's not irony. It's just a coincidence.

@hvnlysoldr Its irony. It would have been better if the article stated something about Wii having lots of games released in a short amount of time and then only having 1 game reviewed in that particular month thus showing a different literal truth than what the article portrayed as the truth.
But irony is still implied in the fact that it takes alot of good games to make a winning system and was a good catch by eric imo. :P

Just read it now, excellent article. About the one title, the article does mention the current drought but also points to the DS being similarly slow.
