Like what was said already, games has something movies don't and thats Gameplay, now bad gameplay is bad gameplay, but if say a game like oblivion had bad game play do you think it would of got so many high scores both from console and pc magazines/websites? no it wouldn't, would it of sold as well as it did?, nope it wouldn't.

So by one person saying one great game is better then another great game, that is opinion and not fact. as at the end of the day it boils down to what that player enjoys more.

And movies have acting, and books have literary style, and so on and so forth. As for your question, I can find you hundreds and hundreds of high cores for Twilight, so saying something that gets high scores now is just laughable. I mean, according to IMDB, The Shawshank Redemption is the best thing ever to happen to cinema, when it was just a very amazing damn good movie.

It all comes down to player styles and what the player likes, why should a player need someone else telling them what they should like? and shouldn't like?.

It would be like me telling someone who thinks final fantasy 6 is a better game then final fantasy 7 that they are wrong, and FF7 is the better game, both games is loved by lots of people, both games are in the same Genre and from the same series, both the person that likes FF6 better his opinion matters just as much as mine as they are 2 great games in the same series but with theire own style that makes some people like one and some people like the other, both needer opinion would be right or wrong. and you right the Shawshank Redemption is a great movie, and maybe it's so high in the list is cos it may appel to more people then a movie you or i should think should be there, doesn't makeus right or them right imo it still all comes down to taste..

I know what you mean, however The Shawshank Redemption is not the best movie ever made, even from movies I don't enjoy I know that it is not considered the best movie ever made. Just because I like some other movie more though, doesn't make it better than the Shawshank Redemption and that's my point, it seems all too common in video games where opinion is actually defended, when it should be absolutely irrelevant when talking about the quality of a game.
