There is no such thing as objectivity when it comes to a qualitative measure of artistic merit, come off it. Even if I were balking at the critical consensus (and I'm not, not necessarily) that does not invalidate my statement - we are not obligated to agree with Metacritic or gamerankings in any fashion.

If you don't want to continue the discussion, I will gladly respect that, but do not think that you can get the last word in if you want to go down that particular road, because I will do my level best to prove my point.

And I'm sorry, if you characterize Wii owners as buying "nothing but shovelware" then I have trouble taking anything you say seriously.

You don't have a point.  You have yet to make a valid point.  There is no quantifiable evidence to prove your point.  Just like I could sit here and say till I'm blue in the face that the Sega Saturn is the most advanced console ever released.  I wouldn't be right ofcourse but I could stubbornly stick to that assertion even in the face of being proven wrong.

You certainly don't have to take what metacritic has at face value.  But again,  you have absolutely no proof of the opinion that you hold.  If you really believe what you said (Which I really don't think you do),  you just have bad taste.  That's all there is to it.  You've stated in a very factual manner that the Wii easily has a better lineup in the first 27 months.  Yet you provide no proof at all.

Wii owners do buy quite a bit of shovelware.  As evidenced by their lack of quality titles yet solid software sales.  Hell, practically half the Wii games that I own are shovelware.

So are we not dropping the conversation? If we're continuing, just let me know.
