Also just for people to note, PSM is not owned by Sony.
I'm pretty sure its part of the 1UP network, but I cant be arsed checking.

It's owned by the same people who make "The Official Playstation Magazine" in the UK. It basically beat the one owned by Sony out of buisness. Considering it's a magazine soley about Sony stuff however it relies on the good graces of Sony to have a magazine worth reading. So they likely do have some influence.

More likely however it was just the head of the publishing company realizing that bad reviews for games that are supposed to be big titles is bad for the magazine as far as readers go, and with there relationship with Sony.

I don't get this. If I was reading a magazine, I'd want them to tell me truthfully whether a game is good or bad, not just sit there and say how great Sony is.

If a game is bad I need to know, so I don't waste my money buying it.
