As with Rath, I kind of agree and kind of disagree. I think scores DO help to give us a ballpark range for how good the game is and help focus our interests on the game. If there weren't review scores, games like Zack & Wiki would be completely ignored.

But, I also agree you should read the actual reviews of the games you are interested in. The score should attract you to the review, but then the review should be read to determine if the game is a good purchase for you.
