Reviews almost never dissuade me from buying games, because I know what I like and even if something gets slammed, I know what I'm in for and plan on enjoying it. Every once and a while though reviews can persuade me to buy a game I had no intended to. Reading the review of the new PoP game made it something I must buy. It sounds incredible. It leaves behind soooo many gaming mainstays to try and create something more fluid, beautiful, articulate, relaxing and flowing. Combat is rare, death is impossible, button mashing is replaced by calm well timed combos that have to be felt rhythmically. The experience of playing the game is the purpose of playing, beating it is not the priority. This sounds like something I must have and must reward, and that really surprises me.
