Professional game reviews are very important ... but I have learned to also read plenty of ordinary game-players’ reviews. These tend to give a more honest overall response to a game and you soon discover which one is or will become a classic. There is not that many of them.

I was surprised to see that GameSpot gave Riven, only a 7.8, for example, when it really is a 9.8 for having fulfilled perfectly what an adventure game needs to do.
