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.

I get where you're coming from. But even if people come to expect Vita to hit an 8, as you say, they're unlikely to it consider it as good as a 10. That's the drawback of making console-type games for a handheld, people will apply the same standards to games of the same style, regardless of whether it's realistic to expect as such.
More handheld-styled game sidestep this by fulfilling different criteria, making an unfavourable direct comparison less likely.

So...why's everyone complaining about the indie resurgance on the Vita?
