Skyrim (Gamestop) PS3 Reviews slowly dropping.... : V

They were 9.7 at first, then weeks later to 9.4, then to 9.1, and now to 8.9.

It appears more and more people are finding these ridiculous issues the PS3 version is plagued with. (Lag, freezing, frame rate drop, etc)

They do, actually. It's part of publicity. Video game companies fear negative press because it damages their sales. A large number of the consumer base relies on user and critic reviews for their purchases.

Note: A review can be as simple as Guy #1 telling Guy #2 "This game is X" in a high school hallway.

I traded my PS3 version for the PC version. Even though my PC is on the weak side, it still runs the game better than the most powerful console this generation. It's sad. If you can't program the PS3 to run your game well, then don't release it on the PS3.

Bethesda should of never released skyrim to the ps3. It is a horrible system and skyrim is one of many games that don't work well.

Not all of them. Some companies act like "I got my money, why would I care?".

Infinity Ward. Ever played CoD? If you have, then you know they don't give a sh*t about game post-release.

Thats obviously bethesda, as they then released a patch that made the game have more issues!

Have you ever looked at some of the scripts in these games if you did you would understand how and why these issues within their patch can happen, how trying to fix one thing can break another, although they really should test them before release

Are reviews dropping or is the butthurt rising?

I like how 8.9 is somehow bad now.
