Reasonable on 19 November 2009
video game reviews can be very unreliable IMHO. Occasionally they seem to sync - Uncharted 2 being a good example, where almost every reviewer thought it was great and clearly most gamers think so too - which means that a clear majority are in accord about the game.
But generally, reviews can be all over the place for many titles, indicating a big lack of consistency.
Also, as you state, there is clearly pressure for certain big titles and franchises to 'go with the flow' and sing its praises.
Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...
