Singularity, and why I need to stop reading Jeff's reviews.

So, after being on the fence about this game since seeing the preview in Game Informer some months ago, I saw Jeff's review...
Now, I have a history with Jeff's reviews, in that they've led me astray before, but 4/5... pretty positive prose about the story and the variety of the game.... Man, I wish he'd mentionedthe uneven difficulty, the extremely tight focus of the corridor rail shooter nature of the game that wants you to run around collecting stuff, but punishes you for doing so and/or locks you out of areas once you pass that you're having to run through anyhow, and tops it off with twitchy controls and a story that tries to ape BioShock's atmosphere, and I do mean ape, as in "trying to be like it without understanding it"...
Yeah, I really need to stop reading his reviews. They haven't done me a dang bit of good yet.
