Damn it!!!! I hoped the picture+title would suffice but whatever.

Here's the deal. Everytime an exlcusive game gets a good review from an Official magazine there's ALWAYS some dude who steps in and says "I'll wait for a less biased review" or something along those lines.

My gripe is, what's the inclination to assume that all review from that Mag is biased? Is it so hard to believe that maybe, just maybe they really did like the game? Why are people so quick to scream foul play?

When the game gets a crap score, the nay sayers are often nowhere to be seen, instead dancing on the game's grave.

Whilst I think it's never a good idea to hold reviews, metacritic and the likes as the word of truth, I do however believee there's no harm in giving credit where it's due. if Mag X thinks game X is good and it just happens to be an exclusive for the console that the Mag is an official representation of, I see no reason for people to disregard it as being biased.

It happens all too much on this site and it sickens me, you get some people who go into reviews of official games that got a 9/10 from an official mag and say "well this mag always gives exlusives higher marks, they gave this game 9/10 so it means everyone else will give it 8 and lower. (point of reference, the thread talking about the 9/10 review for GOW3 by OPM).

My point is, these attempts at downplaying is unnecessary and it happens WAY to much here and it really needs to stop, would it kill you to be supportive? If it would, stfu and gtfo!

I think that covers it.
