Does every single high review score have to succumb to these tired old allegations?

Our top story: Internet forum members pre-judge source with cynicism and scepticism accusing bribery and bias...

 

It's a pretty known fact that you can only post an early review for a huge game if it's a high review.  That means they potentially rated the game high so they could get their review out there before everyone else and people would buy their magazine.

So if they were to award it a 4/5 it wouldn't have been posted as early?

I'm just over the conspiracy theory claims that seem to be everyone's first reaction or assumed response when they have a differing view.
