That can be true in some ways, but is not always the end all be all. I think if a game is appreciated by gamers and have their approval, that can go often go beyond what reviewers of a game site can write. APF 2k8 has that potential, and I think it will ultimately succeed with gamers telling each other how great this game really is.
