Will you be counting Yahtzee, Jim and TB?

Dunno about the other two, but you should not use Yahtzee.  I like Yahtzee, but his primary goal is entertaining.  Unbiased reviewing is a very distant second.  There's nothing wrong with that, but there is something wrong with taking something seriously which was not meant to be taken seriously.

Yahtzee's reviews are serious. You just need to use the right filter because at the end of each review you will know what he really thinks about a game.

He will always say what he likes about a game and then indulge in the shortcomings, which is his thing. But the games he will recommend(after ripping them apart) are always good. I would trust his recommendations over most "serious" review sites.

Is this list of best and worst games really less valid than any other list?
