IMHO though i see more biased in the user reviews more than anything. maybe ive been visiting IGN too much. ive seen user reviews for games that didnt even release yet. the BS doesnt get any stinkier than that. |
If there was no belief in a connection, there would not be the push for good scores from publishers. Plus I never claimed this was from developers alone. You get the complaining from people writing for blogs or on message boards, and even from people in the gaming companies, although they try to be more subtle about it.
Plus I'm going by use reviews from sites like Amazon.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
