Well, some games they can - those that last about 6 hours. The majority of reviews are done to make money, which we cannot blame them for - everyone needs to eat. How long would you guess it would take to full experience every facet of GT5? It's just impractical to expect a reviewer to sink that much time into a game, especially when they need to get the review out as soon as they can, in order for it to actually be useful to anyone.
When reading reviews (and I do hope you read reviews in their entirity) you must always be aware that the reviewer did not play the game as much as you will over your life. |
I agree with the above. Can you imagine waiting a couple of extra weeks to read a review. Can you imagine how few hits the last to review site gets.
To my mind having a damage system that is progressive is all well and good .
Not bothering to tell the reviewers about it is either stupid or deliberately disingenuous.
