It wasn't an argument, it was a statement. Listen, I know it hurt your feelings when I said I didn't like rap, but that isn't remotely relevant. The quality of a video game is subjective, and there's really no arguing that. There are objective properties to a game, sure. Even objective flaws, like frame rate stutters or glitches or whatever. But what ultimately determines the quality of a video game is the level of entertainment it delivers to the user, and different people place different levels of importance on different aspects of a game. This is why Dave isn't wrong for thinking Okami sucks (even though most people love that game), nor is Joe wrong for liking Street Fighter IV (even though I hate that game). |

I dunno if I buy the whole "conspiracy theory" thing. Especially in regards to Disney, I mean...Epic Mickey aside what Disney game in recent memory has done well? I mean, if it were true that they were in Disney's pocket, don't you think all those games based on Pixar films or Hannah Montana would fare better? It's easy to say that Call of Duty fares well all the time because they are under Activision's thumb, but I think you and I especially are going to be the least fair opinion on the matter considering that I am indifferent to CoD and you abhor it. Me? I just don't look at the CoD review. I don't care about the game, so I pay it no mind. That is the worst thing I could do to it, is not care. |

Split/Second, Epic Mickey, Guilty Party, Toy Story 3, Meteos, Spectrobes, Pure, But this isn't some "conspiracy theory". It is a major conflict of interest for the people providing the review content to also be providing the money. That is true in any field of journalism. Not every score is going to be affected by it, buy the issue is that we have no way of knowing which are and which are not.
No, for a variety of reasons. First, those games are rushed out quickly and extremely low-budget. They don't require a large return in order to be profitable. But more importantly, the people buying Hannah Montana games aren't reading reviews in the first place. The Male 13-35 demographic is the review demographic.

You...used my real name? Anyway, I think you are investing far to much of your brainpower in this. Are there backdoor shenanigans going on? Probably. But that is true for pretty much anything...ever. Are they going on, on the scale that you're thinking? I doubt that. But anyone that puts that much stock in the opinions of somebody else that they've never met deserves to be taken advantage of anyway...don't you think? The harsh lesson may teach them to think for themselves. |

I used your real name because I ain't typing your username. And again, if it is beyond clear that it is going on, regardless of the scale, why bother with professional reviews in the first place? We know it's fairly large scale, because literally every major source has at least one HUGE blemish on its integrity record. And for every one time they get caught, you can bet that there are many more times they don't. Again, I don't see the logic in repeatedly subjecting oneself to horrible sources for information when there are so many better ones out there. For free. It's like watching CNN or Fox News, then saying, "Well, they're not ALWAYS being childish partisan retards." |

The 3D effect really ass blasts out in Rayman and Pilotwings. In Ridge Racer it mostly just makes it look cooler. For Rayman it ass blasts because it gives you actual depth perception, which is very important in a 3D platformer. I remember when I first played Rayman 2, I always found myself slowing my decent with the helicopter thing to make sure I was going to land on the right platform. With the 3D turned on, you have a much better idea where you're going to hit and as a result you can make jumps with a lot more confidence. I really can't wait until Mario and Sonic get 3D platforming outings on this system, because I believe both series would benefit from stereoscopic 3D. As for Pilotwings, it ass blasts you plot better routes through the rings because you have a better idea of the distance between them, as well as where you are in relation to the ring. |

I wonder how much a DS Lite sells for at GameStop. I never had a Dreamcast, ergo never played Rayman 2, so this would be a prime opportunity. |

While I wholeheartedly recommend getting a 3DS, I don't know that I'd recommend getting one just for Rayman 3D. You can get a Dreamcast and a copy of Rayman 2 for about 35 dollars total, compared to 290 for a 3DS and Rayman 3D. |

http://www.gamestop.com/gs/specialty/tradeins/ A DS Lite is worth probably 60 or 70 dollars if you were to sell it on Craigslist. |

I think Pilotwings and Ridge Racer are both very good games, and I've been hearing shit sprinkles things about Ghost Recon. This one is a turn based strategy game along the lines of an Advance Wars. If you want Street Fighter and Rayman, I'd say take a look at the above three games as well and then consider the two built in games before you decide whether to get it or not. |

professional reviews suck word of mouth/demos/general information are better i'll use a few professional reviews to get an idea of how they felt about a game, but only from words, and even those i don't watch too closely |
