I addressed reviews. It was reviewed on traditional standards for what makes a "good game." The game itself was meant to render those standards irrelevant. It is succeeding. Given that, I find it kind of hard to criticize it receiving an award for innovation.
Edit: and btw, your reference to review scores and comparisons with other games in your first post were, at best, erm, "vague."
P.P.S. Trench warfare? The game just won six awards, and you're arguing it is "bad" based on critical reaction. Sounds more like you're surrendering Paris to me.
