Of course I do a personal research. My brother saw NFS Underground at my cousins house and he said that it as a good game, so we bought it, and it turned out to be good game.
I heard bad things about NFS Underground 2, and when I saw the game on Xbox, it was ugly. I also heard that once you finish a race in NFS U2, you have to drive through the whole city to another race, and again and again.
But the problem with console game is that there usually is no demo for the game, so it is risky. However, I bought a jam pack and it had very good demo of Killzone, a game that I have never heard of before, but I liked it, so I bought it.
When Renegade came out, I did not read reviews about it at all, I downloaded the demo immediately.
So you see, I don't always read the reviews, I only read them as last resort.
