Game Reviews

Why do some people treat game reviews as a fact?

I’ve seen this a lot online. If a game gets a bad review and someone has a different opinion on it (for example, say it’s good), someone uses a review to prove that the game is bad. If game reviews themselves are opinion, then why do some people use treat them as if they are fact? Aren’t people entitled to have a different opinion than a game reviewer?

But how do video game reviews affect your purchasing? Do you always wait for a review before buying? Do reviews absolutely determine whether or not you make the purchase?

Classic Game Room HD – PERSONA 3 for PSP review

Classic Game Room HD reviews PERSONA 3 for Sony PSP from Atlus. Part of the Shin Megami Tensei series, Persona 3 is like Dark City meets dark anime, a trippy tale about the Lost Hour, Shadows and Evokers that bring out the Personas in teens fighting for the future or something… Persona 3 was originally released for the Playstation 2 PS2 in 2006 in Japan and 2007 in North America. This version on the PSP has a new female lead character (in addition to the regular male character) that has some additional plot elements. Fuse personas (aka Demons from the other SMT games) into more powerful personas which act as magic spells and weapons in turn based combat. Persona 3 is a JRPG (Japanese style role playing game) dripping with that unique Shin Megami Tensei style which masks its turn based, dungeon crawling heart. This CGR review of Shin Megami Tensei Persona 3 has gameplay from Persona 3 showing video game play of Persona 3 on Sony PSP. Persona 3 is rated M for mature.
