Reviews are pretty important to me.
There are some games I know I want, and some I know I don't. I know I'm not going to enjoy the next Assassin's Creed, and I know I'm going to buy the next Mario game. But, for games in the gray area, I use reviews.
Take for example a game like Astro Boy for the GBA. I'm not a fan of Astro Boy, so there's no way I would have bought it. But since it got such positive reviews, I checked it out, and I'm glad I did.
