When Angryjoe (A huge Xbox fan, who only got into PlayStation with the PS4) ripped apart Destiny it was completly fine, but a Halo fan reviewing a Halo game and suddenly it's not legit because its exclusive to a system. Absolutely hysterical.
Anybody can review, maybe people should make their own opinion on a game if they can't handle a differing opinion.
At the end of the day, does a 6/10 or a 9/10 change the quality of the game? Absolutely bloody not. |
This is true. He has regularly been pretty hard and unwavering on major titles regardless of PS/XBox/Multiplat status. But when some people see him not giving high grades to games that they favor, suddenly it's a big deal.
It's all relative anyway, we all have different tastes and preferences. It's too bad game demos aren't as common as they used to be, they help people avoid bad games and give a look at others that they might otherwise not know about or have given a chance.
To some people, Halo 5 will be a 10/10, and that's perfectly legit FOR THEM. For me, just from the few minutes I spent with it, it would be a 4/10 or less personally. I don't gaf about the story, I don't like the MP style, it's just not my bag. Does my 4/10 mean anything to anyone else? Hell no, and it shouldn't.
As for me, Halo 5 is not interesting enough for me to spend hundreds of dollars on, and nothing else on X1 besides maybe Forza 6 is available or upcoming that I have the slightest interest in. I dumped my X1 after being severely disappointed in Forza 5, and have no regrets. Maybe I'll pick one up for $100ish at the end of the gen to play a few titles that I missed.

We get what you are saying. Someone's review should not matter if you like it. But then you had to say 4/10 after a FEW minutes of playing and going on to tell everyone about how you dumped the XBO. This is flat out trolling, as it is irrelevant and you know it will upset people.
Idk why angryjoe is popular, looks like a mega nerd and I will never watch one of his videos based on what people have said as it confirms what I assumed about him accurately.

Ah, I don't mean it as a troll whatsoever. I have plenty of friends here and elsewhere that like X1 and/or Halo, and that's great. My feelings and preferences have eff-all to do with what they like, and vice versa. If anything I'm HAPPY that people enjoy the things that they like.
People need to stop taking things so personally, and to be able to know what subjectivity and objectivity mean. :)
I prefer PC and Nintendo, with PS4 looking more interesting next year. That's just me, and that shouldn't offend anyone. i tried to go X1 early in the gen because I really liked the older Forzas, but like I said, F5 was a letdown to me personally.
But this is getting a little off-topic, it's all in reference to Angry Joe and perceived bias/resistance to criticism.
The biggest point is that NOBODY should speak for you, and you have to take other people's opinion with a grain of salt and proper perspective. Once you find someone with really similar taste to yourself, that's when you can really start to find good reviews/thoughts on things that might be applicable in checking out new games/movies/whatever.
Peace :D
