Good old friend, I don't quite get the last sentence and what you accuse me of. I do not troll Uncharted and I do not criticize it to rile up Sony fans.

I criticize it because it's the prime example of many things I think are wrong with modern gaming, and the higher reviews it gets, the more reason there is to bring the discussion up.

Sony fans aren't any more sensitive than any other people. These things must be able to be discussed in a civilized manner on a gaming forum I think.

Getting a lower than 9 score isn't really what people are bothered by. It's the obvious "troll-sense" from a review that grades a game with as low a score as 40%/100%. That should signify a fundamentally broken submission, not a title that has 88 others critically praising it. It's also the fact that that very same site gave it a 100. Which is it? 40% or 100%? That's where the problem(s) stem from.

The issue with your post it the idea that this 40% is a justified "reality-check" to many, many fans who feel the same way that every other reviewer feels. I get the criticism you're receiving. That's all, man.

Justified or not, I'm still hoping for a reality check or wake up call for those two points:

1. Opinions differ

2. Some games ride on their superb visuals and presentation, which tend to mask the quality of the story and other things.

My hope is simply that it got a few people thinking, even if just a little.
