Look at me! I am playing badly reviewed games and having fun!

That's it, I am never reading an official review for the rest of my gaming life.  Finished.  Never again...

Here is why:

I am currently playing the game Calling (50 on Metacritic).  I know it is NOT a masterpiece, but I would give it a 7 out of 10.  In fact, I think any game I finish to the end deserves at least that much. 

Secondly, I am also playing Final Fantasy Crystal Bearers (66 on Metacritic). So far, I would easily give this one an 8.5 out of 10.  Good graphics, story, characters and gameplay.

Finally, I started Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings (55 on Metacritics).  So far, great action, super respect of the Indiana Jones franchise and acceptable graphics.  I would give it a 7.5 out of 10.

I now know that a game is as good as you think it is.  I will soon start Fragile Dreams and it too has a poor metacritic score (64), but I found a cult following on the web who sware only by this game.  I am no casual gamer or hardcore gamer, I just enjoy games that have a special connection with me.  As long as I am having fun, the metacritics of this world have the right to think what they want.

That's it. 

glad to hear it, keep on playing.

if everyone only played the games that reviewers praised you are missing out.
