"I'm addicted to a game that I know has very real design and storytelling flaws, 9.5/10. See also: My 10/10 review for Candy Crush and cigarettes."

These kinds of reviews are the polar opposites of the ones that insist "fun" is not important to games. Yet often the two types of reviews are written by the same people.

What the actual gently caress was all the money spent on, then? Cheetos for the devs?

but then again, they already have my money; what impetus do they have to do such a thing

Didn't Diablo 3 break some kind of sales record, on release? I know it sold crazy well. Doesnt mean they wouodnt have any reason to fix their borken game. As for Bungie, they want to make a franchise out of this, so leaving it unfixed is a good way to sink that ship. The reviews are out though. I think they've hosed themselves.

Every mediocre to average console shooter on Sony or Xbox is the amazing next big thing that will revolutionize gaming. Every amazing WiiU game is "pretty good I guess but will it save Nintendo"???

Because Nintendo doesn't pay for shiploads of event tickets and merch for games publications, while Sony/MS do. Plus badmouthing ninty won't lose you a readerbase, while shittalking MS/Sony will.

Aside from Doom, what generation-defining games haven't been poo poo?
