That's hardly an embargo, that's just an extreme version of "not having a crazy hype-campaign"

I'd say it still counts, since the question was about review embargoes OR no pre-release copies provided to reviewers. Hype or no hype, you'd still be asking gamers to buy it based on nothing but previews, trailers and/or developer rep.
