 That way the reviewer goes into the game having absolutely no preformed idea of what to expect or not expect.

I also suggest that reviews are done based on how the game is designed. If the game has a heavy online component, then the review should not be made till the reviewer has actually spent a lot of time online.


If the dude goes into the game without knowing anything, why would you force him to spend a lot of time online in the hypothetical case the reviewer in case does not like multiplayer/does not enjoy this online mode in particular?

 

No thing such as a perfect review because:

 

a) Journalists strive to reach objectivism, but such definition cannot be achieved.

b) Whatever they write is up to their public's judgment.

Couldn't disagree more. Journalist strive to enjoy their work and having litle hassle doing it. 99% don't give a crap about being objective, has long as people like the review (pandering to the audience) and publishers keep advertising on the website (pandering to the publisher), most of them coundn't care less. They're only professional in the way that they get payed to do the job.
