The whole point of my comments were to say that popular review sites are bought and paid for long before they review a triple A game.  Game journalism is very broken.  While they can't directly pay for a review of a game, they can buy the entire sites adspace just before their game releases, in return for a solid review of said game.  This along with sending reviewers early review copies and  being flown out  to places like Venice to stay in 5-star hotels for a week to play a half hour of games.

Asking for numbers of fan opinion of a video game which is well known is nonsense.  Google that shit.

No, because I didn't make the claim.  If you're trying to prove a point, then you have to prove it.  I'd ask you to back up your own shit, but you've already admitted your only "evidence" is anecdotal, and reading comments on message boards is neither random, sufficient, nor accurate data.  

You're argument is that game journalists can not be trusted because Skyward Sword was not a good game.  Your evidence for that is that you didn't like it and some people on the internet agree with you. And that all the people who don't agree with you are wrong because they're fanboys.  Lolol.

You either have the support to make a claim, or you don't.  You don't.  

There is no confident way to datamine fan opinion on a video game, random, sufficient or accurate.  What you're asking for does not exist; the only way to back up any kind of opinion like this is by knowing what the opinion of the game is as a whole.  That is done by the way I have stated in my previous posts.  You are aware of what fan opinion of SS is, with the majority completely disagreing with major reviewers.  Not everything needs a citation, professor.
