I agree with the OP.
I can't count how many times I've said something critical and been blasted as some kind of hater.
I can say I don't like Kinect and enjoy Halo. I can say the Wii U is underpowered and still look forward to Mario U, Zelda U and Metroid U. I can say the PS3 controller is uncomfortable and still want to play The Last Guardian.
Just because somebody has something negative to say it doesn't mean they have an agenda.
