Couldn't care less about "official" scores on metacritic, or Gamerankings. Almost every game I've played that's been reviewed has gotten much lower scores than they deserved to, thanks to a systematic attempt to raise the xbox 360 up as the console of choice by "journalists", (i.e. internet fanboys), by giving the "HD" systems higher ratings, and deriding the Wii with shit awful ratings on solid games. Don't give a rat's ass about "AAA" anymore, as it no longer means anything. Don't follow the herd.

Reviews used to really mean something back before the industry became a multibillion dollar business with money flying everywhere to get a game to sell well, so now you get sites that have game ads that completely fund the site and employees, yet these ads are run by the publishers that say if our game doesn't get good scores from your site we pull the ads and therefore people lose their jobs.
Reviews are still good for general purposes and from smaller sites like ours, we're funded by ads but not the game publishers, and you've got our staff that buys games out of their own money to review for you guys, so if they think, hey this is a waste of money, then hey it was a waste of money for them and they're trying to warn you.
