I don't think any reviews ever covered head-to-head, unless they merely listed it as a feature.

A couple of facts I remember concerning the H2H issue:

- OOTP6 was the first version we could pre-order (at a discounted price, mind you). It was listed as a feature during this time, so people pre-ordered the game expecting it.

- At some point, Markus posted a poll - release OOTP without H2H on such and such date or 2 weeks later with H2H - people overwhelmingly and unsurprisingly wanted the game ASAP...



Quote:
Was the v6 demo available to people on or around release time?
The above two points combined meant you could either shell out money immediately for the game and have faith that Markus could deliver a game with H2H, or wait and see if it ever made it in - but miss out on the discounted price. So, although I don't remember if there was a demo or not, it wouldn't have benefited people who wanted H2H and the discounted pre-order price.

I don't really care about head to head, but I do understand why some folks feel shorted.
