[QUOTE="bofe1234"]Your statement above says wait until it is reviewed and are sure about it? Why do you need somone else to tell you it is good, and ok for you to buy it? You should buy a game cause YOU like it, not because of a reviewer sayin they like it. Look at Rocky Horror Picture Show --- Nobody reviewed it good and it is still playin all over the world makin tons of money and a cult of fans. And then look at some of the recent reviews sayin a game sucked when it was great, or that a game was great and then it sucked. C'mon reviewers are paid to do a job and are slanted mostly to one system or another. PERIOD. The only review I trust is when I rent a game and try it and then like enough to buy it. I am the only reviewer I trust. And I don't think you should only buy a game when someone tells you it is ok to do so.[QUOTE="dilmos"][QUOTE="thegame458"]Do you plan on buying Sonic the same day or will you wait till it is reviewed and are sure about it?

Because the game could get a 1.0 and suck horribly and be a waste of money. thats why u wait for reviews. and the rocky horror picture show is a horrible movie IMO.
You know what, that is exactly my point... Rocky Horror does suck... to normal people, but to 10's of thousands of others, it is another Star Wars, which IMO sucks more than movies ever released but keeps making money. So a game is rated 1.0 by a couple of people in a room somewhere, what does that mean to me or you? Does it absolutely definitively mean that WE won't like the game? No... take for example all of the maddens and all of the NCAA football games.... they all got big ratings before launch and the only one out of any of them that is aorth its money is NCAA 05 for Xbox... the rest blow. But they all got big numbers, just like Halo, or MP, or any of those other games, that IMO are junk. But it is just that--- "My Opinion" which is all a rating is "somone elses OPINION", and there is no way I base my purchase or time of purchase on wether or not a game has been rated, and how high or low it was rated by one or two different people. Ask yourself this, how many times has a game been rated low and you loved, or even how many times was a game rated HI and you felt like you had been ripped off... that is all I'm saying, and that was the OP question... Wait for the review or buy it opening day. Yeah this is true, reviews shouldn't be meant to completely sway a person one way or another. The whole point of people reviewing them is to give u an idea of what the game is like and make u aware of its ups and downs, but some people take game reviews wayyy to far and completely rely on other people to make decisions for them.
