Unfortunately there are some very stupid people out there who wish to compare reviews between games, which any review system is largely unable to do. Unfortunately those same stupid people are largely unable to understand how changing expectations dramatically effect one's ability to compare games.

It's not stupid people, it's the view the review industry has setup for itself. It doesn't matter how alike or unalike things may be, if you measure them on the same scales they will be compared.

Try again.

Happens very little in the movie industry and they use the same scales. The debates that gamers have over reviews is stupid, the fact that they continue ad nauseam is stupid. I can only conclude those involved are stupid.

Comparing games across time is stupid. The greater in the difference in release dates the more impossible the comparison. It quite simply does not make logical sense, to compare them indicates that one fails to understand this and therefore they must be stupid, or at least not particularly bright? End of story.

The meaning of the word stupid changed a lot during in the last centuries and the impact of this insult is different in other cultures. Posting in a thread without making any solid contribution is stupid. You waste yours and everyone else time. Entering a discussion just to tell people they are stupid is super stupid. If they are stupid they would never get your point and that makes you a little more stupid. If they are smarter than you, it is worse, because you are the stupid one calling others stupid (this way you have irrefutable proof that you are indded stupid).   It is a lose/lose situtation. Using the word stupid more than 4 times in the same post without finding a proper synonimon is also stupid. Failing to get the irony of a post is stupid. Responding to stupid people is stupid. I would boycott your posts, but that is also stupid.
