Well, what do you think you are doing? You're saying that 'best' can only
be defined by each person individually, I think that's a definition. You're
being hypocritical.

I'm saying they're the biggest publisher. They're the highest-rated
publisher. The most respected developer, as rated by gamers or by other
developers. I'm saying that by just about any way you can measure, they're
going to come out on top.

When you're talking about stamping "best" on something in an industry, it
means a hell of a lot more than a single personal opinion. It "doesn't mean
much", and yet every major award is decided that way. None of them are
decided by a single guy, they're voted on by a group of people who've seen
the movie, heard the music, played the game, or whatever.

I do, but I just can't seem to hammer the idea into your head, where the
only thing that matters is you. I can do that, too, and I do--that's how I
decide what to buy. But I'm also able to accept that other people have
opinions and give them some credit. Have you never tried a game because
someone told you it was good? Never took a look because a game got good
review scores?
You must really hate voting shows--those people are making decisions in a
group! Oh no!
