I have lost faith in the crediblity of reviewers

That is ridiculous if true. That information would be extremely important to someone considering purchasing that game.

I agree that the review system is broken. Scores have been inflated for absolutely no reason this generation. I think that GTA4's score are way too high, and Mario Galaxy's scores are a bit too high as well.

It seems to me that reviewers focus far too much on the technical aspects of games, and focus too little on the fun factor. That is why games in the Wii series get so many points deducted from them. The reviewers have forgotten that good writers are aware of their audience, and write to that audience.

I would rather see a letter grade system, although that could still be susceptible to some of the problems of the current system.
