And IMHO that seperates a good reviewer from a crap one. YOu dont need to like a specific genre or game to understand that some kind of quality went into it. For example, I dont like Xenoblade, found it to be quite boring, but alot of people like it. Now I would never call it a bad game, hell no I can tell it was greatly made, just not my cup of tea. I think their is a barometer for quality, if your game constantly glitches, framerate drops, screen tearing or just flat out is unplayable then thats a bad game by basic standards (steel battalion comes to mind) |
My only experience of that was the demo from XBLA and my god that was amazing to play, I would especially love to personally thank who ever it was decided to put the self destruct button inside the cabin next to about 5 other major controls and then make it a kinect only game.... I say kinect only, I mean you need to use kinect while holding a controller.
I'm honestly keeping my eyes peeled for a cheap copy of both this and sonic riders kinect just to have the 2 most broken games of the generation in my collection.
But yeah regarding the rest of your post I do agree that a good reviewer should be able to see that there was an amount of work gone into something such as a fighting game, but I don't believe someone who isn't a fan of the fighting genre would ever really get balance issues which are clear from the get go.
