I agree with you on the gamers prespective rol. I just find that the really big hyped games are becoming like hollywood blockbusters. What I mean is the pressure on the sites is too much for them to give anything but a glowing review for said game. So how do you distinguish the good from the bad? Even taking it to a different level us bloggers are getting as bad. I mean if you support a particular console you will go to hell and high water to defend it and its exclusives. I do not disclude myself of been guilty of that on ocassions. (Dont know if that word disclude is legit but I like it.) |
The hollywood blockbusters line isn't very good, since movie reviewers have tons of integrity and will slam the shit out of any movie they want to, regardless of it's budget or status. If you look at the Oscars and the movies that get represented, it would be the equivalent of games like Demon's Souls and Scribblenauts being top contenders for GOTY instead of Uncharted 2 and MW2.
