Advice to Sam:

Caution is essential in your circumstance because the data does not belong to you.
As a matter of academic integrity, you must be frank with your audience by noting
any defects in your work, so as to avoid giving them misleading information. It
makes no difference whether you address data limitations at the beginning or end
of your conclusion, the goal is to tell your audience that you are knowledgeable
with different types of video games. You present your work in a way that it
demonstrates your abilities and intelligence in handling and summarizing other
people's work (data), which is what junior graduate students are expected to do.
