It's bad that everyone relies on reviews to buy games. Reviews are such checklist affairs that TONS of great, fun games get ignored because it got some 7/10s, so someone buys the stale, safe-bet title instead. I've had more fun with mediocre reviewed games (NiGHTS, Ghost Squad lol, Chromehounds, Sega Superstars tennis) this gen and been disappointed by almost every AAA title (outside of Mass Effect, Valkyria Chronicles, Dead Rising)

At least XBLA allows people to take chances on cool-looking games easier, cos they're so cheap.
