As mentioned by Kowenicki in this thread, the reactions, expectations, etc... are the effects of a reviewing system that has broken for far too long.
I long for the day we get rid of scores, that way people need to actually read the reviews. Rarely ever does the writing match up with the final score.
This one is a perfect example. They say it is the best simulator available on consoles, meaning it achieved what it set out to do, yet the scores reveal a different story. It is very confusing to the readers and should be done away with.
That is why I actually like Kotaku reviews.
iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.
