What do written video game reviews or video game review scores mean to you?

Reviews can be incredibly useful for discovering games that you never had your eye on in the first place, that turned out to be true gems. That's how I found out about and subsequently bought Persona 3

 

Yeah, me too, I knew nothing about the game (heck, I thought it was in real time), until I saw Gamespot's score (8.5). If I hadn't listened to that review, I would have missed the best game for the PS2

 

Still hope for it to be dethroned come December....I have my fingers crossed that they hit another one outta the park.

 

I know what you mean. I'm worried that I have too much expectations put into that game, with P3 I wasn't expecting a lot (just a good game), and it surprised me. Now I'm expecting a worthy sequel of P3, that'll be hard to do. But if Atlus does it again, they'll be officially gods of gaming
