I can't add anything to the "avoid" list, but I'd suggest taking a look at a few reviews for each game before making a judgment call. MANY times, I've read one review for a game that made it sound horrible, then wound up playing the game later by chance and being pleasantly surprised. Then, I've looked around some more and discovered that the review I read was the only one out of the bunch that had bad things to say about it. In fact, I'll often read multiple reviews and wonder if they're even reviewing the same game.

I used to review games back when Medaverse was a gaming news site, and while I did my level best to stay objective about the reviews, I still found that my own personal preferences crept in and skewed some of my scores. It's a guiltless act. After all, it's your passion for what you love about games that causes this skew. It's ironic, but the best reviewers for games would actually be people who don't play them.

So, as far as literary devices go, would this be considered more foreshadowing, or irony?
