"So noone can criticise a product before it comes out?"

Yes, IMHO. Until I have hands on experience anything I say is conjecture/speculation. I wouldn't judge a restaurant I haven't eaten at. I wouldn't judge a book I haven't read. I could list more examples, but I think you get the point. As for the rest of your nonsense, gaming development costs are far higher than previously. Stating otherwise is either a flat out lie or reeks of ignorance. Either way, meh.
