I dunno. I love Yahtzee as much as the next guy but part of what makes him so great is he's a refreshing cynical bastard in a sea of brown-nosing reviewers who aren't critical enough. He even jokes about how people only watch his reviews to see how he tears the games apart. If all reviewers were like that it would just get annoying, not to mention piss of the developers like crazy if a major player spent the entire review tearing apart AAA games like yahtzee does. |
I was generalizing critics there. Look at movie critics, there are about 10 or so well respected critics. There are the other reviews but the real reviews on movies fall to people like Ebert & Roeper. There needs to be more critics that will straight up tell it as they see it.
