Sometimes I just wish people would learn the difference between something that's good/bad, and something they like/dislike.
People have an awful habit of calling things they don't like "awful" and "trash" when the products themselves are actually of an objectively good quality.
Sometimes the other way around too but that's much less common.
There is a difference between subjective tastes and objective merits. You can like something that's bad, and dislike something that's good. And many people do this. Problem is, not many people can fathom when they are liking something bad, disliking something good, or calling something bad because it wasn't exactly to their personal taste.
That was sort of a message I was trying to convey in my Sonic Unleashed article. Like I can totally see reasons why people wouldn't like the game or parts of it anyway (since that seems to be the main issue people take with the game - most people like the daytime stages, just not other stuff), but don't let that cloud your judgement and go around saying those aspects are bad. Because bad and good by definition, are statements of objectivity.
That kind of misuse that is commonplace now, is what leads to true under-rated/over-rated products.
Then what's this sitting on one of my desks in my room?
