One of the biggest things i use review sites for, is to see whether or not the game in question is structurally sound. Had i read a review prior to purchase, I wouldn't have faced the debacle that was FF7: Dirge of Cerberus. I would rather not play a game that feels rushed to market, made just to capitalize on a name, completely glitchy, and so on. Gamerevolution.com does a pretty good job of this. When you see a glowing review on their site, it usually is pretty legit. On the other hand, word of mouth is EXTREMELY important as well. It helped me purchase one of my most favorite games: Shadow of the Colossus. So, game reviews are like movie reviews- you take them for what they're worth. Not much.

i think i'd pick it up...if the collection were held together as a theme. I kinda liked Gaiman's Smoke and Mirrors, but was turned off of the majority of Fragile Things..
