GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con

Ok, so as the title states, im getting kinda annoyed now. The thing thats really cheesing me off is the way that players review new games. I swear, the first ten reviews of a game I see are not credible at all. Its all a bunch of guys (and i have a bunch of other words instead of guys but lets leave that to another site) who only played the game for like 30 mins and havent even gotten past the tutorials and are already giving it a 10.Honestly, is it so hard for people to split their reviews into properly written paragraphs that actually have something to do with what they are reviewing. Like a review of a game should not include "go buy the game now because im tired of typing lol" How does THAT justify buying a game? I swear the first ten reviews of MP3 which i read ( and no it wasnt the actual first ten player reviews and i cant say when because people will come back at me with pitchforks) were completely meaningless because the people who reviewed it hadnt even gotten to the first main battle. I swear how am I supposed to see how an average player feels about a game from each aspect when these people keep on flooding the reviews. However, im not saying that players dont write good reviews ( the good ones know who they are), im just saying most of them are lazy and shouldnt be allowed to post at all.

On a happier note I bought MP3 yesterday and 2000 wii points. The game started off fairly well for me but if its gonna be like the second game again....lets just say i didnt have a pleasant time (neither did the wall lol) Well ill have to wait and see. I bought fzero x and paper mario with the points. I never beat paper mario when I rented it all those years back on my N64 so nows my chance to redeem myself. Im going for all 3, I already beat the thousand year door, and im currently playing super paper mario right now.

Congratulations on getting Prime 3! And I completely agree with you, I only writereviews about games after I either finish them or play them for more than 20 hours, there are some reviews that gave the game 1.0 just for the sake of lowering the average score for the game, that's really stupid.

I know what you mean. And it's funny because those reviews will get 8 people preferring it for some odd reason. its rediculous. My reviews are always very long and in seperate paragraphs. usually 2-3 pages long. you cant just give a game a 10 without breaking it down into its categories. If people right a review they need to spend time to tell why its bad/good.

I also bought MP3 and i like it overall. Definetely the most fun i have had with a metroid game, but i most certainly wouldnt give it a 10 right out the game considering the game does have its flaws.
