GoW was an exceptional game but RDR2 was more impressive and overall a much more well-rounded, immersive and innovative game. Anybody who has played both games from start to finish would know this. If GoW is a 9.5/10 then RDR2 is a 9.9.

By the time Halo 3 came out the MP FPS lobby shooter genre was already well established thanks to it's predecessor. H3, as good a game as it was/is, did not have the same impact on console gaming that Halo 2 or CE did. The mid - late 00's were absolutely dripping with MP shooters with the likes of CoD and Battlefield on the rise. It was still a standout game of 2007 but more important than Bioshock? Not really.

It cuts both ways. You've got people who shit on anything no matter what because they've seen a Youtube "review" or because it's from a specific company. And then there are those on the other side that will act as if you offended their ancestors for criticising a game they like. Yet these hypocrites are the first to join the former group in shitting on a game if it's something they also don't like. You're an incel if you dislike TLOU2 and if you buy any EA games then you're a pebble brain and deserve to lose all of your money.
It is quite pathetic. It's like people these days have no clue what nuance is. What, you're telling me that you can think that TLOU2 was a very flawed game while having female friends in real life? how can this be? You can dislike EA as a corporation while appreciating aspects of a game they published? What is this witchery?
It's also quite astonishing how many people have such surface level knowledge of the gaming industry and cannot even seperate, for example, developer from publisher. But that is a discussion for another clock.
