@Christoffer: Nope, because that would be your opinion, not everyone has the same opinion, which is why some things are popular and some things are not.
And some opinions are valid and others are not, which is why things like debate exist.
Some game reviewers base their entire scores on playing a game for 30 minutes.
Are their "opinions" just as valid as someone who played though the entire game? I would think not.
I once had to write a rebuttal forum thread to Jeff's Double Dragon Neon quicklook because he made a ton of statements that I felt were inaccurate and was basing his dislike of the game on the impression that the developers didn't stick to the original material enough when in reality they almost lifted the entire game pixel by pixel from the earlier Double Dragon games.
If Jeff allowed to have an opinion that says the developers of a game didn't do what, in reality, they went out of their way to do?
Patrick frequently makes statements that those in the listening audience find to be inaccurate or untrue. The lack of a direct ability to debate with him causes them to have to simply swallow their rebuttals which makes for a general dislike of Patrick himself. It's not fair, but that's the internet.
