I try very hard to find reviews like Blistered Thumbs used to do, which gave you a score, but also a recommendation of, "Avoid," "For Fans Only," "Try it Out," or "Buy it Now." This freed up the reviewers to give the score they felt best without worrying too much about encapsulating the game into just that number.
Alas, BT is now defunct.
I usually read reviews looking for a few answers.
What gameplay can I expect? (I'll know if I will enjoy it just from hearing the outline).
Will the story be interesting? (Again, I'll know if I'll enjoy it from the blurb).
Does this reviewer share tastes with me? (Almost never happens).
If I spend more than 2-3 minutes reading at a review and can't answer at least two of those questions, it's a VERY BAD review.
