So are we saying that any good review will offer a contrary point of view to the main reviewers? A high score and a low score?

Hmm... I can't say that wouldn't be a bad way to give reviews. A reviewer that states why the game is meh, and another that states why it's A-Okay.

Now there would be a good idea. A two-review system, one to preach to the fanboy choir, and the other to take the game to task.

I don't know how well it would work but it would definitely be an interesting experiment to try out.

The biggest difficulty would be finding two people with varying opinions, or a person that loves to overrate and a person that loves to criticize the smallest details. But having two scores instead of one would be, in my opinion, a better way to know what you're getting yourself into, and deciding whether the problems with the game, however trivial or stupid, would bother you.
