@mehrdad19872010 That's a good idea. We do have stronger user feedback in another show, Quoted for Truth, which is discussion built around user comments.

@Ima_Grey Ricardo Torres no longer works for GameSpot. Justin Calvert and John Davison are now in charge of our editorial content; Kevin VanOrd has taken over as the head of the reviews department.

@dutchgamer83 @ss @ss When a game is marketed as "authentic" or "realistic" (like Medal of Honor), I have no problem calling a developer out for their lies. That's nothing like Mario or Lego Batman, which create rules which don't necessarily adhere to reality. There is a very big difference between these two ideas, and why I don't question realism in the vast majority of games I cover.

@timthegem Invincible combat isn't inherently boring. But the way its implemented in Lego Batman 2, with shallow, repetitive mechanics, is bad game design.

@shalashaska88 Suda51 is one of the only directors that I make it a point to play everything he makes. So far, I've only been disappointed once -- No More Heroes 2. Lollipop Chainsaw is another fun and memorable game. I can't wait to see what he comes up with next.

@fanaticsm Hey now, there's no reason to insult Shadows of the Damned. Both games are pretty darn fun, and stand out in a sea of risk-averse titles.

@-Fromage- Some day, people will look at a 6.5 and realize its not a low score at all. What's the point of a 10 point scale if only the top 20% is used?

@Goj1ra Look beyond the numbers. The text of a review can tell you a lot more than the score ever could.
