That's silly. The score doesn't mean much of anything... unless it's someone who completely agrees with you, it's just their opinion. What matters is how much YOU would like it... and scores don't always reflect that, if it's a game that they don't like but you would. Yes, the score matters too... but the analysis of its qualitites, so you can tell if you'd like it, is probably more important.
Though, of course, some of it depends on the reviewer -- how good are they at seperating 'what I like' from 'objective reviewing'? Most don't seem to do too well.
