My unpopular opinion; I think the Uncharted series is mediocre. To me, the series is just an action movie transplanted into a video game. While that's fine, I don't want that experience and none of the main Uncharted games have convinced me otherwise.

I like the gameplay a lot, but I won't lie that the cutscenes are at least half of the enjoyment those titles provide.

I agree with both of you. I have Uncharted 3 the main thing going for it is its story and cutscenes. I think the gameplay itself is mediocre at best but I do enjoy it because it's easier to adapt to. Plus I really like 3rd Person Shooters. The online modes are really fun though, like the Lab.

Haven't touched 3 yet, but I did play Uncharted 1 and 2. I really like the verticality to the levels, you actually have to think about your environment during firefights and certain encounters offer different ways to tackle them. Plus the first game offered a lot of treasures and cheats, which is always nice. But yeah, I still think the gameplay aspect could be better.

I think that the Resident Evil games that should have been exclusive to Nintendo consoles should have stayed exclusive. (RE4, RE:R)

Capcom revoked their "RE4 staying Nintendo-exclusive" policy before the game even debuted on Gamecube, lol

I don't agree with your post but we might as well....................

I think that blaming Nintendo fans for the lack of 3rd party support is wrong, due to some developers treating Nintendo fans like second class citizens by giving them crappy ports for the same price as fully fledged games.

For example, many shootings and robberies take place because of games like GTA. If someone plays COD, maybe not so much, being you are taking out bad guys. But many games involve innocent people being robbed, killed, etc. Watching movies like this can also have effects on people.

Please provide a link to your double-blind peer-evaluated research.

Yeah, I gotta agree with Caviar this. This reminds me of when people say "Guns kill people" instead of "People kill people".

Except guns kill people! If it weren't for guns everyone would still be alive and happy just like how if there weren't spoons everyone would be skinny and fit!

Well played, good sir. Well played.

Didn't the original joke go "If guns kill people, then spoons made Rosie O' Donnell fat"?

I dunno, I just saw a picture of a guy with a sign reading "Spoons made me fat" standing next to a guy saying "Guns killed the children" or something like that. I take no credit for the joke.

I've got some more:

The Gamecube is criminally underrated
The N64 is slightly overrated
Black and White 2 was the worst mainline Pokémon ever
Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald (gen 3) were better than Red, Blue, Green, and Yellow.
Brawl was just as good (if not better) than Melee
Mariokart 8 is just as good as Double Dash (but not better, they are forever tied)
Dragonball GT wasn't that bad (not gaming, but I had to say it)
Snivy is overrated
Pokémon isn't running out of ideas

Capcom at E3: Guys we're sorry about how we've been treating Mega Man so we're gonna make it up to you by releasing the Mega Man Cancelled Collection with all the titles we cancelled in the condition they we're in just before we pulled the plug. Now who wants Street Fighter X Monster Hunter?

People act like he is the best Mario character to ever live, even though there isn't much to brag about when it comes to Waluigi. Seriously. What makes him better than Wario, Mario, or Luigi?

There is taste in film, but no, there is absolutely a such thing as objectively good film making. That's why people go to film school, and pretty much the only reason that Citizen Kane is often considered the best film of all time.

It's mostly a film making and film critique thing, but yes, it's real. Objectivity isn't make believe.

Academia... OMG has someone been watching the Nostalgia Chick cuz we all know once she joined academia she became a total snob with her head up her a**! Seriously being well educated makes you a well educated person it does not make you or your opinions better than anyone else. (Sorry I get angry when I hear the word academia)

No, it really isn't. There is no opinion in objectivity. It's an unbiased critique of the technical aspects of the film. Things like direction, music, lighting, photography, acting, editing, sound, these are all things that are objective qualities of a film. How is it subjective to say that a scene is too dark to see? Have you seen Alien vs Predator: Requiem? Half the movie is unwatchable because it's too dark to see. That is an objectively bad movie. How about Quantum of Solace? The editing style in that movie is so jarring and frantic that every action scene is almost incomprehensible without multiple viewings. That's also objectively bad, though I did like the movie.

I don't know why some people have a hard time understanding the concept of objectivity in films. We can generally all declare that Sonic '06 is a horribly designed, buggy game, but no, film is entirely a matter of taste. There's no such thing as bad movies.

Um... dude? Like, I hate to break it to you, but... like, there are people out there who... uh... I mean, I'm not saying I'm one of them, but... yeah.

What I'm trying to say is that there are people out there who can honestly say they like Sonic 06 to some extent.

And those people like a bad game.

Nothing wrong with that, but it doesn't make it a good game.

Isn't this partially fact / partially popular opinion?

I'll give that there are some things that can't be easily disputed, but ultimately they do not determine the quality of the movie (or game, TV show, etc.). They are simply the basic requirements to be a decent movie, and none should be judged soley on those merits. Most movies don't actually make it to the big screen unless they check all those boxes. There a hell of a lot more to movies than that, and that's where it becomes heavily subjective. There is ultimately no right or wrong with storytelling, only what someone likes or dislikes, and there are an innumerable amount of reasons why someone might like or dislike a story or aspects of it, many of which probably don't make any amount of logical sense, even to that person. Ultimately the things that academia tends to focus on are simply what a certain group of people all agreed they like, and to be quite honest, they don't always reflect the interests and opinions of the majority.

And "good" and "bad" are by their very definitions subjective terms.

General guidelines of what most people like are taught. A lot of thig a you listed are subjective, he quality of acting can be debated by different people, the directing can be debated, the lighting can be debated, the music quality can be debated, sound can be debated, and editing can be debated. I might have missed somethings, but pretty much everything you said isn't truely actually objective. It's subjective. To press the point, a movie like Sharknado is actually a good well made movie if you think about for a second. It's a comedy, it's all carefully engineered to be what we generally think is bad to an extreme, that it's hiliarious. It's actually good, because we laughing at it and enjoy it. It's what it's supposed to be, a different type of comedy. It takes talent to make a move like that. From your objective standpoint, it's bad, but when you think about and bring subjectivness, it's good.
