I don't find website game reviews appealing because their criticism is summed up under the umbrella of the score.
Metacritic is not evil. It's just a collection of numbers by certified websites, but art and entertainment are too objective for the consumer to form his own opinion on how good a game is and how he might personally enjoy it based on numeral values.
Gaming journalism is moving away from game scores, and now you can find reviewers on places like YouTube that talk about their taste and are more sincere in judging games. I also find pseudo-reviews like Zero Punctuation and Super Bunnyhop just more informative.
It's also annoying when some argue that "Gamespot" or "IGN" says this game is better than that game because of the score when two different people made a review based on their own experiences.
