There could be 5000 free maps incoming and that still wouldn't matter because you can't review something that isn't available. Reviewers can't add points for content they have yet to try out. What if the new content is bad?

You know your post doesn't change anything I said. Reviewers can use whatever excuses they like, but it's simply a fact that what they're reviewing is not everything people are gonna be paying for so they need to accommodate accordingly if they want their review to be relevant.

But that's the game they are playing right now. They can't score the content that isn't there. 

You are saying they should review games and score them according to the improvements that might come down the line, not review the game that they get. 

The fault is not on the reviewers. It's on Nintendo and its strange release "strategy" for the game.
