It's because 99% of the console war is generated by buyer's remorse.  You talk yourself into thinking the "other" console sucks because you don't have it.  Anything that comes out for that console is then instant garbage.  The better the game is, the more the opposite camp rails on it.  It's a defense mechanism to keep yourself from thinking that you chose the wrong console.  And it fuels the console war.  The hardware manufacturers live and breathe on it.

On most games, if somebody thinks a game absolutely sucks, I can just chalk it up to "that's your opinion".  With Uncharted 2, I find it really hard to believe if someone thinks the game sucks.  If someone is of that opinion, I'd be willing to bet a good amount of money that he or she simply has not spent very much time with the game.  (If you spend at least 10 minutes with it, you will be wowed.)  The Uncharted series in general has a little something for everybody.  If you can't at least admit that the graphics are amazing, then you just simply haven't played the game on an HDTV.  Simple as that.

I personally think every hardcore gamer should now own a 360 and a PS3.  It's kind of like if you don't vote, you don't have a right to bitch about who gets elected president.  If you haven't played any of the PS3 exclusives or especially if you don't own a PS3, you really have no right to bitch about it.  If you do end up owning both eventually, you will see the error of your ways and feel like an idiot for any past comments you made.  I know first hand---it happened to me two months ago.

I agree with @CGI-Quality.

Again, excellent post!
