Honestly, if the polls at Gamefaqs were an accurate way of gauging how well something is going to be recieved, then the Xbox would have sold all of about 5 units at launch. :P

Those reviewers are just Gamefaqs members. Anyone can write a review if it's legit. Everyone has their own opinion on MK games. Most of the time the newer games are bashed by old school fans simply because of the transition to 3D. MK Armageddon is by far the most enhanced MK game to date. The engine is great and very fun, though not perfect.

Since 2002, GameFAQs has hosted annual (or biannual) tournament contests consisting of daily polls in which visitors to the site choose between competing characters, games, or series. Registered users can submit prediction brackets, and prizes are awarded to those who score the highest. The contest polls are shown in place of or in addition to the regular Poll of the Day and have always been accompanied by an image depicting the entrants in the match. The smallest margin between any two choices in a contest poll was three votes—this occurred in the four-way match between Alucard, Liquid Snake, Ness and Zidane Tribal on September 22, 2007, with the three vote difference between first-place winner Liquid Snake and runner-up Alucard.[82]

A KoS is the worst punishment you can receive on GameFAQs. It stands for Kill on Sight. It happens when a user violates the TOS to the point where the administrators feel they should no longer be posting on his site. In this scenario, the person immediately receives a usermap axe and either goes under "Name KoS" (you are allowed on the site, but if you publicly reveal your identity, you get banned) or "Full KoS" (your IP address may be blocked from creating accounts and moderators are to hunt you down and suspend your accounts whenever they find them). Very few users ever reach KoS status.

On January 9, 2001, GameFAQs ended its association with IGN.[26] To continue generating revenue, an advertising banner sold to non-profit organizations was placed on the top of each page. This lasted until CNET Networks became an official affiliate of GameFAQs; CNET ads ran on the top of the page and links to news articles from GameSpot were shown on the home page.[27] In September 2002, the ad was moved from the horizontal header to the vertical sidebar. This led to changes to the links on the side, as well as the creation of navigational links at the top of the screen.[28] Contributions to GameFAQs continued to increase, and Veasey, as sole operator and administrator of the site, dedicated significant portions of his time to ensure that GameFAQs remained updated and successful.
