I think so. I think a lot of games are hyped up by consumers because they receive high scores by the press. Other games get low scores and are automatically labeled as trash by the consumers. High scores can mean it's a good game, as low scores can mean it's a poor game, but people should also atleast do a bit of research and see if maybe the reviewer just wasn't interested in the title, or if the review they were reading "by some chance" doesn't inflate the score all to hell.
The scoring system has also been inflated to ridiculous levels by the journalists. Anything lower than a 7/10 is unplayable to most people, so when I review without a massive amount of inflation, the same people come in every time and cry about it despite repeatedly hearing my explanation that 5.5/10 is average in my opinion. The way it should be. 99.9% of the game library isn't going to be 7/10+. That leaves four games to be between 1-6..
