Revolutionary in what way?

That's a very open-ended question. Revolutionary for the series? The genre? All games? All art forms? 

Here's the article in case you didn't read it.

I mention how other review systems seem to approach how they review material much differently (and maturely). Anything that is subjective will ultimately be flawed in some way... But that doesn't mean it has to be broken.

I was responding to Roadkillers opinion that it is revolutionary. Maybe we should ask him.

I agree with RP that the review system is broken. I think reviews need to become more critical like Yahtzee's reviews. His reviews are truly masterpieces.

 I dunno.  I love Yahtzee as much as the next guy but part of what makes him so great is he's a refreshing cynical bastard in a sea of brown-nosing reviewers who aren't critical enough.  He even jokes about how people only watch his reviews to see how he tears the games apart.  If all reviewers were like that it would just get annoying, not to mention piss of the developers like crazy if a major player spent the entire review tearing apart AAA games like yahtzee does.

Hardly anyone mentioned that the review system was broken until GTA4 came out. Thats what annoys me. A game comes out that looks like it might replace LoZ:OoT as the number 1 game, and suddenly everyone is saying the review system is broken.

 The game is revolutionary due to what it has done in taking the franchise and genre to the next level. 

From a technical standpoint the game is a marval all the things going on and happening at once. The amount of AI in the game is amazing. Each of the 700 different civilians have a different personality, movement, etc. Each car drives differently. All the weapons fire more realistically. Not having 1000 health pickups and having to make the player actually use his head in times of combat. After combat have it so the only way to heal is hunt for a randiom health pack or spend money on food.

Thats what is revolutionary about GTAIV.

Not really. You only notice it now because it's GTA4 that's involved, but the 70-100% review scale compiled by guys who couldn't get jobs in real journalism has been a laughingstock for quite a while.

 Yes, and who says the reviews for Ocarina of Time weren't biased? It was a prety hyped game, the sales can indicate that alone. Despite the fact that it really is an excellent game, who's to say that the review system didn't show a bias with that game? Or Soul Calibur? Or any game ever?
