Off base reveiws are a problem in the movie industry also. The original Star Wars (Episode IV) got terrible reviews, and we see the result. Actually there have been quite a few blockbuster movies that have sold very well, but were reviewed poorly (Star wars is the only one that comes to mind though.
Same thing in the gaming industry. Some games are scored very low, yet sell well (Mario Party 8 for instance).
Buy what you like, avoid what you don't.
