(2.) But you're going off topic of the original reasoning reviews are were brought up. It's wonderful you love a bad game like Haze, but what makes me think you just don't know what you're talking is that you rank it up with games that are actually critically good titles and someone may purchase a PS3 for.
(3.) Finally, reviews are really the only way to compare the quality of each system's game library. Personal preference aside, the 360 has more games that have scored higher in reviews than the PS3.

I put (#.) for easier replying
1. I was never saying to let the people at the stores be your sole reason for buying something. I actually discuss games with them after I've played them. Sometimes they have good insight and other times not so much. It is worth spending the time if I'm already there looking at games as it is.
2. Have you played the game? If not, despite what popular view is, that dosn't give you the right to say it is bad. I honestly loved the game after expecting it to be the worst FPS ever given the ratings/reviews. Despite that, I still traded it in for store credit after a few months as I had no one to play it with. It is a 2 person+ game to me, much like Halo. I'd have done the same with Halo unless I had the money to play online (as Halo's community is far better than Haze's). Anyways...COD4 is better than both :P. Sidenote...Haze would be last on the list of games I listed, just like Halo 3 would be last on it's list that I listed.
3. I disagree once more, the better console is determined by the individual who owns it. To me the ps3 is better, to you the 360 is better. Either way though, to me great games are of more importance than good games. To others, a lot of good games can beat a few great games. I prefer quality over quantity. It's a personal choice. Furthermore, each person can view the ratings of games differently. While some games might be a 9.5 to some reviewers, other people who don't play the genre or just don't like the style of game could consider it a 6.0 sort game. Really it does just depend on the person.
