Very disappointed of people using reviews to judge a game without playing it...

People that game on a budget pretty much have to decide rather or not to buy a game based on it's reviews. It would be kind of foolish to buy a game for $60 without reading reviews, especially if you already had qualms about the game based on other prerelease information. 

I play video games on a budget but I don't use reviews as a way to figure out if a game is worth buying or not. They're not reliable sources of info and reviews on games. A lot of them have an agenda or bias behind their reviews. I'll do research on the game and read about it's features from a credible source then use my own judgement on whether to get it or not. The majority of the time, I'm happy with my purchases. If I do buy a lemon then I'll make a note of the dev and be more weary of their games in the future. 

I generally trade in most of the games I buy after I've beat 'em or exhausted my interest in 'em since I'm on a budget and all. :D
