<p>Eurogamer <a href="http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/lionheads-peter-molyneux-interview_1" target="_blank">conducted an interview</a> with RPG Godfather Peter Molyneux himself.</p>
<blockquote>
<p class="interviewQuestion"><strong><span class="whoistalking">Eurogamer</span>: You said there were aspects of Fable II you weren't happy with. Eurogamer gave it 10/10 and it sold millions of copies.</strong></p>
<p class="interviewAnswer"><span class="whoistalking">Peter Molyneux</span>: I know you did. That was one of the first reviews that we saw. You know, this is what you don't realise being journalists - and you should, you should do this, it would make your life so amazing - when you give a score to a game, you should cherry pick one of those teams and you should go to them with the score. What you don't see is what we do when we see that review.</p>
<p class="interviewQuestion"><strong><span class="whoistalking">Eurogamer</span>: What do you do?</strong></p>
<p class="interviewAnswer"><span class="whoistalking">Peter Molyneux</span>: You know what I'm going to say now: 'It's f***ing amazing!' I can remember getting that Eurogamer score - because remember, this is where honesty comes in - before that you had been really critical about Lionhead. These things hurt, just like anything else.</p>
<p>I can remember standing in the studio holding up this f***ing 10/10 from Eurogamer. Everybody cheered. It was great. It was like getting a huge award. It really was. You never see that. The press never sees what it feels like to get a 10/10.</p>

. It's win-win: journalists make game devs happy by handing out 10/10, journalists are happy because they've made someone happy. Gamers are tricked into thinking the game is worth paying for and worth liking. They enjoy their entertainment experience because they think they SHOULD (the profeshunals liked it!), thus they are happy. The economy grows because money is being spent.
