Review Stuff

Personally I feel that a video game review is a very good way to tell people whether a game is going to be good or not. I feel that it is good only if the person who is doing the video game review is someone who actually played the game and have at least some type of knowledge about what it is they are doing and what it is that they are currently reviewing for the public. I think it is really unprofessional when a newspaper or a magazine get some random person to do the video game reviews. It should at least be somebody who actually plays video games. And have some what of an idea of what it is that they are doing.
I also feel that whoever the person doing the game review should also have actually played the game. It is a waste of time to write a review and base it completely on something that you read or heard about and not focus on the game play of the actual game it self. But that is just one of the things that bugs me. I know how much work goes in to reviewing a video game and all the time that is lost by doing so. The only other big issue that I have when it comes to video game reviews is the scoring system. The scoring system that is used to rate video games can be a very complicated and extremely annoying thing to try and deal with.
I have seen more than one point system that people use when they are reviewing vidoe games. The first one and they most common is the ten point system that most people use for their video games reviews. The other system that I have seen used is a five point system, famously used on X-Play. Now I really dislike both of the systems becase I do not want to grade a video game. I think that if you tell how good the game is athen everything will be ok. People will be able to decided whether they want to buy it or not. I know that the grading system is not aimed at someone like me who will decide whether to buy it or not based on what I think. But for people who need someone to tell them to buy it or who are buy a game for someone else. I just find it stressing.
