Reviews should be released a few days later. Day 1 reviews are actually joke. This is why guys like angry joe has more credibility than ign.

If you still are unsure if your money is worth a purchase you can wait a few days.

Having said that I fully support and appreciate reviewers finally wising up and not reviewing games with such a strong online component before release. Anyone remember BF4? Yep, that's the reason why pre release reviews of online games are garbage.

Well the gaming news industry need day 1 reviews in order to bring in traffic to their sites. I think that for games with online components there simply need to be change to the process. Gaming sites should release day 1 previews and full review release when they have gotten the big picture and online been tested.

To simply disregard the need for day 1 reviews is not valid. On a friday night that I want to go see a movie at the theatre, I check out reviews to get an impression, see which movie spark my interest and know about dud that I should avoid.

And yet the gaming industry did fine long before Day 1 reviews ever existed.  Imagine that.
