Message: [QUOTE="rootCompute, post: 219081, member: 1829"] I guess to slightly push back on some of the perspectives in this thread, I find games that are reviewed highly end up being great when I'm looking for something outside what I'm used to playing. For example, I'm not usually into air combat/flying games but I recently played Ace Combat 04 Shattered Skies on PS2 and had a wonderful time! The thing about review scores that gives me some pause: if I know a game is highly reviewed going into it, does that color my opinion of it subconsciously before playing? Did I have a good time with it because I liked it, or did confirmation bias set in? (And vice-versa with poorly reviewed games) [/QUOTE]
