@Sevan: Okay, well firstly I didn't say I preferred CoD, I said I preferred Halo and you've yet to address that issue, but to get to the real point "elephants fly to mars and snort its red dirt" is an objective statement, "Halo is good" is a subjective statement. Likewise if I gave you the objective statement that "chalk is a solid" I could put a piece of chalk in front of you to convince you of my argument, the evidence would show you that it's a solid, but if I gave you the subjective statement that "World of Warcraft is a far better multiplayer experience than Halo: Reach" based on numbers of people who played the multiplayer, it doesn't matter how much WoW I make you play you'd still be able to disagree with me and it would be an entirely valid disagreement. Sales figures aren't a "this is how good this game is" meter, they only indicate how many people were of the opinion that a game was worth the money they paid for it at the time of purchase. The opinion of the majority does not invalidate the opinion of the minority, that's what we have niche games and indie games that are critically acclaimed but don't necessarily sell well.if the world thinks Halo is a good game, then halo is a good game. The only valid counter would be "I THINK Halo is a bad game" which implies that it is your personal opinion, as opposed to "Halo is a bad game" which implies that its a majority truth opinion.
in your long winded attempt to correct my incorrectness, you failed to catch my short attempt to correct his.
side note, your argument ist redundant. Your trying prove my opinion that his opinion is wrongincorrect by saying no opinion can be incorrect... silly goose. :)
