A recent thread got me thinking about the need for reviews. Since most games release a demo before or soon after release, why bother relying on reviews to make your decision? I can't think of one game that had a demo that impressed me and a full product that didn't. Vice versa on that point, too. Some might complain that demo downloads are too big; and if they have dial-up then it's a valid point. But those of us with broadband should never have to rue the day we spent money on a dud. Just download the demo, and go into the store with eyes wide open. Enlighten me as to why I should bother reviewing another game.
