So how do we tell which reviewers who give it a low score are doing so because they honestly feel it deserves that score and which ones are only doing so because they apparently have agendas or are too prideful to admit they were apparently wrong? And why would they be wrong? Did the game go through a massive design change?

We tell by playing the game itself. Those who don't play it will continue to talk crap about it, but only those who play it can really state how accurate the reviews are.

That doesn't work. A reviewer has obviously played the game, and yet others who played the game will still disagree.

See: Driveclub. According to many here it is a fabulous racer, amazing even. Yet it has a 71% score, and that is with most of the lowest reviews not even taking into account the shitty launch.

What it boils down to is while some gamers are complaining about or making reference to this idea that reviewers already have their minds made up on the game and will score accordingly, those same gamers themselves already have their minds made up that the game is going to be incredible and low scores must be low for some other reason than the game itself. Which they have not even played and the reviewers have. It makes no sense.
