Naughty Dog are amazing developers but the others are only average at best.


You're definitely wrong on that score.  Dave Halverson, Founder of America's Greatest Video Game Magazines Diehard Game Fan and Play Magazine said that Ninja Theory's "Heavenly Sword" was without a doubt the Best Game of the 1st Half of the 7th Console Generation.  That Game Company's Journey was the Overall Game of the Year for 2012 ( http://youtu.be/gEERLu_brSs and http://youtu.be/Atyttw6pvjw )  MediaMolecule has produced Games that have a higher Metacritic score than any Xbox exclusive since 2001 as have Sony Santa Monica and Team ICO.

So what that Dave guy says is fact now? Anyone that thinks otherwise is 'definitely' wrong?

 

Certainly what Dave Halverson ( http://www.gamesetwatch.com/2009/02/column_game_mag_weaseling_dave.php ) says can be taken as Gospel.  Going back to 1991 or so, he's basically ( there are a few exceptions that have usually been part of his staff at his magazines like Nick Des Barres whose statements can also be taken in that light, Raychul Moore seems to be doing a good job ) the only American Games Journalist with a mind of his own that is unaffected by corporate dollars ( which is the only reason most Xbox games have scored as high as they have )
