A lot of the official reviews in some magazines seems like made by the dev, if not at least well paid.

Can you please give any examples? A specific review that stands out a bit, maybe?


Polygon is said to be one of the greatest culprits on this kind of things.

Besides the stealth threats that we hear about devs saying they won't send game to review to reviewers that gives them bad scores.


See I've heard theories about Polygon receiving funding from MS and being expremely biased, but publishing a review written by the devs? I'd like to read that! (if possible without giving them hits).


Owww about them publishing dev written reviews I don't think we could find anything. But probably if you compare several texts from the same reviewer and find one that is really different from what they usually put you can suspect. Other possibilitie is that probably they receive the bullet points.
