What is this, bible class? I have to know when to interpret you literally or figuratively? How about you start actually using the RIGHT words for a change so the guesswork and need for clairvoyance is eliminated when one attempts to decipher your posts? So far you have pulled the same stunt on every single point I have addressed, every post you have You know, saying things like "ONLY", "ALL" and "ALWAYS" will just land you in trouble. Again, if you actually did the right thing and went back to change your absolutes from "ALL Sony" to "MAJORITY Sony" or "SOME Sony" my post wouldn't even have materialized. And I love your power of debate: "1. Doesn't matter if you are, the point still stands." Well, doesn't matter what you try to say to spin yourself around - I'm still waiting for either a valid answer to how, based on your I've presented numerous valid response, if you don't like them then offer reasons why and not vague dodge-the-question statements. Look at the list of sites Metacritic uses... They're all pro-Sony. Seriously, just look at the list. comment, Metacritic only uses "all pro-Sony" sites to average their reviews; either that, or go back and change your very own words to something along the lines of: I said that such a statement was a Hyperbole, not to be taken literally, do you even know what a Hyperbole means? It means that what I said doesn't have to be taken literally. And if you bothered to read the rest of the text, you'd see I clarified that most concisely. Look at the list of sites Metacritic uses... Some of them are pro-Sony. Seriously, just look at the list. Otherwise, my points still stand, and the shame is on you. What points? Notice how your argument is being widdled down to less and less as I corner you? I love the power of debate. Everytime you come back you have less to say because you have less to stand on. Look you've given up arguing the validity of Game Reviewers all together. Now you're just left arguing a statement I have shown was not meant to be taken literally and another statement you've now brought out of thin air that you've yet to make any connection with to this argument. Oh and the allegation of you being a Sony Fanboy, as if that makes the following text in that description any less accurate, I could update it for you if you like? :) Listen all you're running on now is semantics and rhetoric. I've won this debate. Your increasingly weakening responses are proof of it. |
Example F: Troll comeback: Late to the argument, the Troll refuses to acknowledge that the debate has moved on not in his favor. To remedy this he attacks outdated comments in the thread as if to rekindle issues already passed and resolved. To follow up this malicious attack he refuses to acknowledge anything said by the oponent and simply keeps beating the same drum of outdated issues that have already met resolution in the discussion.
there, I updated it for you. :) now you can't argue about the semantics of the word "Sony" being in there.
Also, to adress the rest of the topic, while I'm sure some game developers play the games extensively, I know many who play a game for five minutes, get a feel for the gameplay and graphics then write a review. Either way it doesn't make their review any less of an opinion. You can't measure an opinion, you can't weigh it objectively, you can't use it as a fact. Furthermore if a game is targeted at "A" and the reviewers are only measuring games by the qualities of "C-H" then the game is going to get a poor score, not because its a bad game but because it was being measured for the wrong reasons. It's simple logic everyone.
Also, Movie and Book reviews are just as subjective though a tad more professional in terms of merrit, but a review of any kind is just an opinion targeted towards a specific audience, not all audiences. Why this is so hard to understand is beyond me. The fact people need so desperately to defend Game Reviewers shows a lack of ability to judge the games for yourself or rely on a games success as satisfaction alone. Sadly, as more Sony games sell worse and worse I have a feeling I'll see more Sony fans relying on reviews to justify their sinking ship.
