There are way too many dubious reviews out there these days. I often wonder how much time these 'journalists' spend with a game before they assign a score.

So...

Why don't EDGE, IGN, Gamespot etc all have PSN and Xbox live accounts so that the gamers can actually see how far the reviewer has played through the game. Of course they wouldn't want to do this, but if someone is brave enough to do it then they would have set a higher standard and we could take them more seriously.

What do you guys think?

 there are alot of issues with that. embargos is the biggest. trophies and achievements are typically embargoed so companies want to less people knowing they are playing game xyz before launch. We at VGC tend to use our personal accounts since we are small, larger companies like IGN have "review consoles" which tend to have no friends other than other reviewers on them for testing online.
