@clockworkengine They didn't lack foresight; they did this on purpose.

"If we ever want to see games accepted as an art form" ...GTA V exceeds $1 billion in sales. Video games ARE largely accepted as an art form among people who grew up with them.

@Diegoctba Reminds me of elementary school days, when kids would threaten to tell the teacher about everything.

Just imagine if Tom McShea had reviewed this.

@themc_7 Ummm...No. Most real, biological women do not complain about "misogyny" or push feminism as much as he does.

Nothing is more pathetic than a male feminist.

And that's STILL more than it's worth.

The graphics are sharp, the music is catchy and the game controls well. Having to restart levels can cause frustration, but a 4.5 is unreasonably low. To say a game is below average is implying that some part of it is fundamentally broken and that clearly is not the case here. A 7 or 7.5 would be a realistic score for this game.

@Sharon Concerned? Back in the 80s and early 90s, kids had to deal with that stuff on a regular basis if they liked video games. Winning through effort is a good thing for them to experience.

@jcr8 But it's perfectly okay that Square-Enix has already dragged it through the mediocre spinoff mud.
