I think it's probably because the site is more about statistics than fanboyism, there are not as many fanboys or haters here and is more composed of hardcore gamers in general (which most of the mods are.)
WoW is a good game, I just don't feel like it deserves my money atm because Lich King doesn't really offer anything new in terms of game play and the raids are gimp easy atm which pissed me off. Halo series uh.... I don't know, I'm sure a lot of the 360 owners who are not PC gamers would find it to be good, I just can't help but think it's crap because I'm not looking at the series at a fair view since PC FPS is better in general hence my opinion shouldn't count.
A lot of people on this site own multiple systems and are generally a little older, so it's a little more civil overall.
