Rock Band 4 has received positive reviews on Amazon, but some of these comments have been linked to Harmonix, the studio behind the game. This was first discovered by a Reddit user, who found that the names of some of the reviewers match the names of the developers.
The developer made a response to the situation, saying:
"Harmonix has clarified its internal policy about posting reviews of our own products on retail sites, and we've asked that existing reviews be edited to identify Harmonix employees or be removed entirely. While we believe the reviews posted by a few employees were sincere and without ill intentions, as a studio we don’t believe these are appropriate actions. We appreciate the feedback from the community, and take our relationship with our fans seriously."
The affected reviews have since been edited to clarify that the author worked on the game, but it is still a shame that this kind of thing is allowed to happen.
