@Sarco: That's the thing with reviewers: There isn't a complete set of standards that all critics are supposed to follow, so technially every game reviewing website can be allowed to review games however the heck they want, so naturally you can assume opinions to vary greatly with certain titles. A common misconception is that people seem to think that reviewers are the most truthful and fair people that can critique things when in reality they're just people paid to give out their personal opinions. They're really no different from you and I, although they do deserve at least a little credit because they were supposedly trained to review things.
