Somewhere in America, a casual gamer will see that NMH existed, and got a 5/5, by accidently watching Xplay, or a ticker at the bottom of the screen proclaiming the games score, and decide to buy the game. It is much less likely that a casual gamer will stumble onto IGN and type in the words "No More Heroes" in the search box, to see that review, and decide not to buy it. That said, in the real world, and not your fantasy land, millions of semi-casual gamers do depend on Xplay for their reviews. Just check the Gamespot or Gamefaqs forums for NMH, and I'm sure you'll find posts proclaiming the 5/5 review. |
Somewhere in America, a gerbil will get loose from its cage, bite a wire, and die from electricution. However, there isn't mass gerbil-icide going on across the US because despite having thousands of gerbils in thousands of cages which are located in proximity to some kind of wiring, the odds are still very low.
Your comment on IGN is a strawman and unrelated so I'll ignore it.
Oh, and we're talking about "casual gamers" not "semi-casual gamers." Don't change the subject. Soccer moms, grandparents, and Tiny Tim don't usually watch G4.
