Good riddance to everyone who does "core game tests."

Even so, reviews are there to speak for whatever quality the game has.

If it can get an 83 despite having some large bugs... It definately has quality.

That would be true if videogame critics had any sort of critical standard.

They don't however... reviews don't count for anything.

Videogame reviews have no credibility unlike reviewers of movies, cars, literature etc.

 

Additionally, videogame reviewers get their income from one source more or less.  Videogame advertising.  Which makes it even less credibile.

If you look at other critics, they are usually paid via advertising from things that are NOT movie advertisements primarly.

Videogame reveiwing is a sham.

  EA bribed reviewers to give it an 83? Wow, they must have had a BAD quarter...
