I dont really care about the star system, I'm an avid tripadvisor user though

Turns out tripadvisor has it's flaws too.

sure, there are issues with every system like tripadvisor, but if you're careful, you'll avoid all these pitfalls.

For sure. It's just fresh in my mind, because a friend of mine manages a bar/night-club and was ranting about it to me at the weekend. He knows restauranteurs who have more than 50 online aliases and spend several hours each week writing glowing reviews of their own businesses and damning critiques of their rivals. They consider it part of their routine marketing activities.

Thats why I never believe anyone with 1 review, or reviews only covering a specific area if its a 1 or 5 star rating.

No game deserves a 10/10 or a 100/100, it's a silly scoring system as it suggests perfection and nothing can achieve that.

Completely agree.

GTA 4
Mass Effect 2
MW3
Arkham City

Mass Effect 2 is easily one of the greatest games of all time

MW 2 and 3 were pointless
