Um, it's not like she's going to work on Wii Music 2. If you want to turn this into a scandal, you'll need to find some SEGA games she overrated, mmkay?
Why wouldn't you let a so-called "casual gamer" review a so-called "casual game", anyways?
Wouldn't you guys want a fan of shooters to review shooters? Or a fan of RPGs to review RPGs? And wouldn't you want the scores to go all the way up to A+ or to 10.0 for the best games in those genres? Would you be so aghast if someone who reviewed Halo 3 highly got hired by Infinity Ward?
"Casual games" have been treated differently. They've been reviewed by people who dislike them, and act like they're doing developers a big favor by capping their scores in the mid 8s instead of lower. And it's so ingrained, that somehow it's a scandal when 1up DOESN'T have a double standard? Puh. Leaze.
Once again, find some SEGA games she overrated.
"[Our former customers] are unable to find software which they WANT to play."
"The way to solve this problem lies in how to communicate what kind of games [they CAN play]."
