subjective numbers set to a subjective rating system. Great way to twist logic.

this goes into most things in life, the best movies sell like crap, its usually the best marketed or the one people like the names or stars that sells the most.

 

 

Anyone seen Frost/Nixon ?

Frankly, highly reviewed games receiving low sales numbers doesn't prove a flaw in the quality of reviewers but rather the ignorance and stupidity of mainstream buyers. Just because the majority is uninformed and dumb doesn't man that reviewers shouldn't keep to higher standards.

Is there a reason to sound so arrogant & bitter at the same time? Do you really fear the Wii and DS (or their buyers) so much?

The type of games you love will always be developed, they won't disappear.

You dont need to "understand" the wii to adequately review it's games. Difficulty, writing, storyline, presentation, depth of gameplay and length are the essential components a game is to be judged by. This is universal, not console specific

 

Yep, because fun is overrated right?

Really all those games from Sony averaged 80% are better. Ok haha. Goes to show you that what reviewers think has nothing to do with what the customers think.

 

 Yep, goes to show you what this new gaming audience buys, casual crap, over quality games.

Well.. that depends, if we look at metacritic (like this thread) the X360 still has the best games out of all other platforms games. If you say that in your opinion it's ok.

Oh you mean from 2007 to 2008? Ok then, i read it wrong
