It depends on the reviewer and the type of game. If Yahtzee likes an RPG, I'll probably listen to what he has to say, because I think we agree on what should be in an RPG. I would probably discount his opinions on FPS, though.
Ebert, for example, is someone I cannot pay any attention to when it comes to sci-fi films, because I have hated many sci-fi films that he hated and liked too many sci-fi films that he hated.
