She's entitled to her views, and others are entitled to think, like you, that her review is overblown. My view is she has some good points about script and plot, given her expertise is in writing, but she's under-emphasising the importance of the visual arts. Remember that Slashdot's review of the iPod was "No wireless. Less space than a nomad. Lame.". Not everybody has to like the popular thing. I quite like watching Yahtzee's Fully Ramblomatic reviews. He's known for giving most games a kicking, but he does highlight what's good in a game as well as its bad points. I'd rather hear what he has to say than get a adverising puff-piece review from IGN. Even for games that I strongly enjoyed, he usually raises good points about them that I'd agree with.
