Ummm no that would be a horrible idea giving shallow games that are still fun great scores/ sarcasm. But no its still a bad idea. All reviewers should be of the same credibility they need a good knowledge of gaming and have to understand what a good game entails. You cant hire a soccer mom to give a thumbs up review to any game just becuase its easy and fun, Wii Play and Carnival games would have gotten good score if that were the case.

People place too much importance on review scores instead of the actulal game. And sorry to say its mostly Nintendo fans crying foul when it comes to reviews. They were the ones gushing when Mario galaxy got scores up to 11/10 and cried fanboyism and hardcore preference when the same happened with GTA 4.

Its time for people to grow up and respect others opinions instead of blastin away ones you don't agree with. A good reviewer can rate a game when they see it. Hell Bloom Blox got a few perfect scores, as did Endless Ocean. Again I'm sorry to say its probably fanboys complaining cuz the library of their console isnt as star studded as the others.

Flame me if you like but thats how i see it.

 

Why is it fair that Geometry Wars got a far higher review score than Geometry Wars: Galaxies even though (in every measureable way) Geometry Wars: Galaxies was a far better game?

Reviewers already (seem to) take into account dozens of factors when reviewing games in order to provide as fair and unbiased reviews when it comes to every platform except for the Wii. Having a lower sale price, being released on a system with less processing power, or being focused on something different from core/conventional gameplay will make reviewers take it far easier on your game for every platform except for the Wii.
