A problem with many video game and movie critiques is that they give this binary first impression. The work is either horrible or its a masterpiece and credit is not given where its due for those titles that are swept under the rug so to speak.
Here I write reviews for some of the more underrated and unfairly reviewed titles in the past couple of decades, not necessarily to elevate them among the greats but to, as I said earlier, give credit where credit is due.
A bad review is even worse than a bad game or movie because a review influences the way people think of a work.
