    What do you think of reviews? Do you use them in order to figure out whether you think the product will be good or not?

    Personally, I do read and watch reviews, but only for entertainment purposes, to see how much the critics enjoyed something. If I think something seems really good and seems like something I'd enjoy, I would still get it. On the other hand, if every single review says it's terrible, I'll be a bit more cautious. Razz

    No. I tend to base my decision on if I want to purchase the game based on how it plays. So if I haven't downloaded a demo of it I'll watch a youtube video & see if I like how the game looks. If so then I'll get the game; if not then I tend to pass on it otherwise.

    I never watch/read reviews for a game that I'm interested in, I just go by trailers or responses of people I know's opinions.

    I always just watch or read then to see what they though of them. It never effects me from buying a game.

    I sometimes read reviews after finishing the game just to know what others thought of it, but never before buying them.

    You guys know I'm talking about reviews in general right? Not just for games, or it would be in General Gaming. Razz

    I tend to get what I want to get, play what I want to play & see what I want to see. I never allow a bad review to change my mind.

    80% of the ones I watch/read are for entertainment purposes, but I do also read them to evaluate products that I'm considering buying.

    It's the same either way for everything, if I get it myself and don't like it, then I learn from the item I got/watched not from a review telling me it was bad before playing/seeing or whatevering it.

    I usually read/watch reviews after getting a game or whenever I need to know some information in regards to hype.

    Do I use reviews to judge my choice to buying a game? Of course not. Reviews are just a singular view by different people. I've seen many games with poor reviews, but I've enjoyed them regardless.

    I've used reviews for dentists online before. If the reviews are bad I tend to avoid them. Razz
