Like i said, if a reviewer can tell me he has a strong opinion one way or another and can't tell me why, can't tell me on what criteria or phenomena he based that opinion, then the review is worthless. Fact is, there are very, VERY few strongly opinionated reviewers that approach any title objectively and are able to show me the issues on which they're erecting their opinion.

I totally agree, and YOU 'RE one of them :

- "Questionable character design" or "lackluster". STRONGLY debatable.

-"Tedious and useless weapon master mode". No explanation or exemples whatsoever !

-''Non-playable characters'' You're right but their fighting styles are playable so who cares ? I play with Hwang and I can live with it.

-''Pushover AI" Guess what ? You can play against humans too.

-''The game speed is way too fast" See I think this is your first time playing SC or else you would've never complained about the speed being WAY too fast or maybe you're joking ? I truly hope you were joking !

Ultimately, taking stock in any review boils down to whether or not i'm willing to trust the reviewer's judgment. Most of the time i'm not. But when i can see that the reviewer isn't one of those "the game is just fun" people, i'm more willing to suspend my cynicism.

I agree and I don't trust you : CG endings in SC ? What version was that ? And since it isn't a flaw, why bring it up ?

The objective facts are there for me to make my own predetermination. That's what i think reviews are good for.

You're right about the slowdowns although you forgot to mention that it depended on the stage (It mostly occurs in one stage). You're also right about the clipping but it depends on the character and the costume. I personally don't care about the clipping.

Also, keep in mind that a video game isn't a work of art. It's a prodcut, with an assigned value by the producer. It's a consumer good. Appreciation of art is another issue, and far more subjective. Some people will tell you that everything is art, and everything therefore has subjective value. I think that's crap. Some stuff isn't art. But that's another discussion. /versus/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Cinematographie is considered art and is also used as a product.
