I can’t beleive how high this is scoring, some reviewers have seriously let the hype get to them. 97/98!!! No fucking way. This is 80 in my opinion, there are parts of the game that are brilliant but as a whole there’s nothing that special that sets it apart from other releases this gen. madness man.

wow! Crazy! It's almost as if everyone has a slightly different experience with a game and one person's opinion/score may not be identical to another's! 

What a crazy world we live in where an amalgamation of review scores actually encapsulates a range and not literally every single person giving it the exact same score! 

It's almost as if you don't understand how game review works.

That's how the gaming culture has been for a while. The score means a lot to fans. The high scores hype the games, just like great comments and scores hype up movies and TV shows. It's like showing a trailer that shows Nintendo or Rockstar or Naughty Dog, you catch people's attention.

Ultimately, we all need to take things into context, or else we make assumptions that high scores means "that's the game I want." If the reviews themselves do not show anything compelling to you despite the high score, reconsider your decision to purchase the game.
