Er...no.

So reviewers give a high score to a game you hated, and one reviewer gives an average score to a game you like without ever having played it, and you are going to boycott all reviews?

Let's see. I hated Ninja Gaiden Sigma, it has an 87 on Metacritic, I quite enjoyed The Force Unleashed, which has a 70 on Metacritic, and I think Uncharted (with its 88 on Metacritic) is the second best PS3 exclusive.

Honestly, if you want a game enough, ignore the reviews (unless they're all under 5 or something), and go buy it. Reviews don't exist to give fan service (at least they shouldn't), but it's because of things like this that so many games get the scores people want them to get, that they don't deserve.
