wow, this thread shows me, that I understand english better than native english speakers

he asked people, why they make "is game xxx (really) that great?" threads, if they already have their mind made up about it and couldn't bring themselves to trust the reviews and existing threads and so on

and if they really just want an opinion and are to lazy to search for the mass of opinions on the internet the OP advises them to name the thread "How is game XXX?", as that distanced it from the ones who just want to throw mud at the specific game

@ Jesus)

he answered "I typed threads", because he ment he was talking in plural and wasn't focusing on one specific thread that made him angry

Not surprising tho. It is all about how you have to learn the language not being a native speaker.

Is XXX that great??sounds like a lot of people have given XXX a lot of positive opinions already to me,then some guy just don't believe it,so I suggest that go and see for themselves instead of posting such kind of thread,no need to ask someone you already doubt.There's HD videos online,demos to play,so if you doubt positive opinions already,then why ask again anyway????

Someone told you some game is very great,then you ask"is XXX that great??",opinion already given,why you ask again????

Ah so Avatar was just an example, not a real question, ok.

Well not everybody has the time to play demos just to find out if a game is good or not, HD videos do not always do justice to a game (or sometimes they make it look better than it is), and sometimes a lot of the "xxx game is great" threads are just fans gettig over enthusiastic - hence the doubters.

On the other hand there are also those who are eternal doubters, or who did not bother reading anything and just want the answer served on a plate.

All of the above are why "is xxx game great" threads exist.

Haters also would like to post this kind of thread too,not just eternal doubters(actually some times eternal doubter is good in the fisrt place,before something is proved well),laziers(like me).

So here comes in the question "How is game XXX?",that would be OK enough for eternal doubters and laziers.

you are losing people with your XXX because XXX usually stands for porn. Try doing ______, it will probably make more sense.
