Re:Guess I'm the only one (Score 1)

I've been reading Game Informer since it was held together with two staples and luck. Back then it was owned by Funcoland and not Gamestop. I still like the magazine and I do agree that the reviewers generally do show disdain for bad titles, even for some of the big shiny ones. I do think it's true, however, that their previews have always been overly positive. There have been numerous times that the previews were stuffed full of praise but when the time came for a review they would bash the game. I wish I could remember the title for sure (I think it was Azurik), but I remember one time in particular they had given a game a front cover of one of their issues for the preview and when the review came out they mentioned how much they regretted the decision.
