That said, it's possibly true that certain types of games will never land well with reviewers because they don't "get" the game. Same as movie reviewers, certain types of movie will never get great reviews because not enough reviewers like that sort of movie. However it doesn't stop those movies from doing very well at the box office, because the movie is loved by the genre fans.

True, and good point on films. Transformers 4 is almost guaranteed to be panned by 80% of critics and make millions at the box office.

I wonder, what was the last game to sell really well (say, 1mil+) and be universally (say, 49% or lower) derided?
