Even then, common sense should come into play. No matter what Sony or anyone tries to tell you, a handheld will not give you the exact level of experience a console will.

That should be obvious.

I agree, but the way Sony and devs have approached the Vita generally seems to shoot for this unattainable goal.

So...I aim my arrow at the bullseye worth 10pts, I say I'm gonna hit 10pts but you and I both know I'm only capable of hitting 8 on a good day no matter how many times I've said I could hit 10 and boast I can...If we both know this, why are we surprise when I do hit the 8 as predicted?

Surely the smart move would be to ignore my boasts and expect an 8 each an every time?

I guess I'm just not getting this because to me, it sounds like if Sony's PR told everyone that the sky was filled with onions and a unicorn farting out rainbows, we should believe them regardless of the fact that we can see for ourselves that isn't true.

If you are going to criticise a game, criticise it because you think it's not good in its own right, not because it's not good when compared to a console counterpart. that is just stupid.
