Real reviewers gave the game such a high score, so that they don't miss out on any of the goodies that cone with rating a activision game highly e.g. money, free games to review and of course an invite to the big free Dev party every year... They are frightened to be black listed as activison owns a lot of the industry.
People aren't stupid though... You can't give a higher score every year for a game that's fundamentally the same without having reasons.... The reviewers should be ashamed of themselves... Games are starting to turn pop like music and movies, where we are dictated to about what to buy and what is good...
Don't get me wrong MW3 is better than MW2 and BO but it doesn't deserve a 9.5 for any aspect of the game... Look at it this way Skyrim will be the game of the year but what will they score it 10? There is no way in the world MW3 is a .5 off being anywhere near Skyrim... I havenr even play Skyrim but I know it will be breath taking
