And I thought Gamespot's FE review was bad.

[whatever]

I disagree, both with the laughable plot part and your explanation of it. Fire Emblem plots have usually been pretty good. Some parts are a little contrived, but no more or less than most elements of others.

I agree. FE has a very good plot. Especially by modern RPG standards.

FE games do have good plots, and Radiant Dawn is no different.  That is why the GS review is complete junk.

But the big draw of FE is the strategy involved.  Placing all your units appropriately.  Not leaving any holes to your weaker characters while still getting them experience.  It is definitely a hard game, but that's what makes it so effing awesome.  Its very satisfying when you finish a chapter after failing a few times.  Its actually helped me teach my kids a little about persistence.  Even they get it and they are 10 and 9 years old.  Maybe they could do review for GS.
