It seems that there are two of them. One at Gamercenter/Reviews >> and another at Gamecenter/Xperts. Oh well! > >Seems the regular GameCenter reviewer is smarter than the "Xpert"? There is no "regular" Gamecenter reviewer, as far as I can tell. Gamecenter employs several reviewers. I suspect "GamerX" is not actually a single individual but either a group effort or various reviewers taking turns writing editorials under that pseudonym. After all, each game review receives a "GamerX Rating". In any case, I think you guys are reading too much into the brief article by GamerX on Diablo. It seemed to me that it focused SOLELY on the multiplayer implementation of the game, nothing more, nothing less, and as such isn't a formal review at all.
