I just want to point something out, because I think a lot of people are taking this off the topic I originally intended: game reviewers were never the ultimate, final voice in the decision to buy a game for me and I believe I can safely say almost anyone. But generally speaking, reviews lined up reasonably well with general opinion. I might personally think the game was a bit worse, and John Smith might think the game is a bit better, but overall, game reviewers did a reasonably good job of giving a review that represented what would eventually be the opinion of many.

To emphasize: I think we can all agree that critics were never perfect. That's not something I'm trying to argue here. Instead, I want to point out that critics are even less adept now than they were before. Noticably and significantly so.
