looking at mgs4 it is now down to 92.5,i remember it was over 94,then some sites went and rated it lower,does this happen to all the games and why?

If you checked, the 2 most reputable reviewers actually gave the lowest scores on MGS4: Eurogamer and EDGE.

 

Also, Imo less popular sites/mags are more honest since they aren't as pressured or moneyhatted by publishers.

 

There is no concrete proof that reviewers are pressured to give a game a high score.  Ever heard of Advent Rising and Killzone?  Both of those games received a lot of hype yet you did see them getting high review score.
