People have different tastes. You can't get people to agree on number of subjects, I can't imagine a group that could somehow review games that would work for everyone. That's the reason I don't like the Edge's policy if not showing reviewer names. I don't read anything they write because of it. I get a feel for reviewers, know what they like and dislike and how that might influence their review. I think that leads to all kinds of problems. People have different tastes.
