Forums - Gaming - What gaming editors opinion do you actually take serious anymore?

none..they've become corrupted...

I read reader reviews..or people's reviews...always like this: a few high scores (8-10)

a few mid scores (5-7)

and low scores (1-4)

and then look at WHAT they liked/ disliked..

and THEN make my decision

Why would anyone's opinion matter more than anyone else's? All opinions should be taken with a grain of salt. That is why information from all news channels must be scrubbed clean of their agendas before the facts can be gathered.

 

Try telling that to Fox News haha.



Daemon Hatfield? I don't like him at all.



the words above were backed by NUCLEAR WEAPONS!

I am saying that ALL news channels have agendas.  Right and left. A conservative station just so happens to stick out like a sore thumb in a liberal medium.



I think GameTrailers are the best for reviews. Always spot on.



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

I couldnt disagree more with the scores they gave to Fire Emblem:Radiant Dawn and MGS4.
In MGS 4 they bitched about the story and cutscenes.....I mean seriously? They also gave gameplay an 8.?
I honestly believe whoever played it sucked(The reviewer). But they gave these games low scores and gave Assasins Creed a 9.7 or somewhere up there. That really put them off my book.

Hahaha defending Fox not such a good idea.  I have a feeling which way you lean on the political spectrum.

None any more.... I look for consensus among reviewers -- i.e. good/bad things that seem consistent across all reviews. Those things are generally spot-on.
