Well that's ridiculous Legend. You found 3 sites who's scores were all grossly off-balance, vs HS's original post which was about the major reviewers in the game industry.

It's not ridiculous at all... If we start removing these minor sites I mentioned with very dubious scoring it would slowly begin to lower the site's average for Wii games and bring the sites HappySquirrel mentioned more in line with the Gameranking's Site average for the Wii.

For example lets look at Game Vortex:

Game	Score	GameRanking's Avg
Avatar: The Last Airbender	95%	63.7%
Call of Duty 3	96%	69.2%
Kororinpa: Marble Mania	98%	71.1%
Metal Slug Anthlogy	95%	73.7%
Spider-Man 3	80%	56.9%
Surf's Up	85%	67.5%
SSX Blur	95%	74.1%

Can they be trusted as a review site?

So.... considering that the sites you posted also gave rather high scores to PS3 & 360 games, it lowers the average score of PS3 & 360 games, making many of the big reviewers higher than the average review. It suddenly makes them simply biased towards the "hardcore" systems.

PS3 games

Armored Core 4	95%	68.6%
Call of Duty 3	97%	81%
Full Auto 2: Battlelines	85%	66.9%
Genji: Day of Blades	70%	58.1%
Mobile Suite Gundam: Crossfire	67%	37.4%
Need for Speed Carbon	95%	74.8%
Spiderman 3	81%	65.4%
Tony Hawk's Project 8	96%	77.8%

I'm too lazy to list 360 games but there's a number of 20%+ and even some 30%+ differences in their rating and the average rating.
