Yes, it is still a seperate and exclusive statement.
This other statement has nothing to do with this thread, which is why I've ignored it up to this point. It's only disruptive if you play into it.
It's absolutely a pompous thing to say, just like it's a pompous thing to say about CoD. Just becuase other people do it doesn't make it okay.
Sickening? Sickening. If you really find it so replusive to see people say positive things about a game or developer they like, just because you don't share their opinions, then you need to learn to relax, or maybe just avoid gaming forums altogether.

I've seen people claim ND is solely responsible for the turnaround of the PS3, that they're god and I've seen certain ND fans shit on other companies who make similar games, just because it's not made by ND. It's far from positive and it can be quite toxic. The metacritic statement has nothing to do with this thread either, yet here you are defending it. The thread is clearly about SALES. If I think something is overrated I have every right to say so (it's my opinion after all ;)), maybe you need to learn to relax or avoid gaming forums altogether?

Wut ? Metacritic has EVERYTHING to do with this topic, of course. If Uncharted is rated more than 90 on MC, it will sell better than if it's rated 70-80, because it will create hype instead of disappointment (MC only reflects VG sites' reviews and communication about the game...). That's pretty easy to understand.
You don't have to be paranoid ("his post history suggests".... really?), or angry because people really like a developer you don't particularly care for. I couldn't care less about Halo or GeOW, but I'm not angry when MS fans call these games the best console FPS and TPS ever or things like that. I've seen enough people sh*t on Uncharted ("the gameplay is a bad ripoff of GeOW", "it' s a non-game for noobs casual only" for example) to understand the other side of the reactions.
You complain about someone saying (in your opinion) that Uncharted will be better, and then you write "Uncharted is overrated anyway". Good old forum behaviour you're complaining about...
Do you use the metaphor with the hospital and charity in english? (maybe it's just in my language, too bad, it would be perfect here)
