    Well, undeniably some votes are political but I feel the majority of votes, especially in recent years, are based more on actual tent than politics (it's unfortunate some countries bring politics in azerbaijan but you have to live with it.]

    I disliked Jedward even more after they viciously attacked the beauty of Eurovision with their rubbish.

    oh good!

    Well I think it's more a competition for a singers fame. I've seen so many good songs which haven't got the votes they deserve, or even reached the finals in some cases. But I think that's a matter of opinion, what wins is what most of Europe thought deserved to win and I guess if we agree or not we just have to put up with it. I like Eurovision because you can tel the artists are having a great time and you can find new musicians you wouldn't have heard before and it's a rich cultural competition, I would love if they brought back the rule that countries have to sing in a national language because it brings such diversity and culture to the contest.

    are you one of the people who believes the voting is political? I can tell you many reasons how it isn't if that is the case.

    What it should be is exactly what it sounds, talented singers from countries inside the European Broadcasting Union, they should send in fun sings if they're good, proper entries to the competition, not if they're merely to make fun of it.

    They shouldn't be making satirical songs about such a magnificent competition!

    Metro not being optional and the lack of start button killed it for me.

    Windows 7 is brilliant. Windows 8. Naaaa. Windows XP was good for its time, but its just getting more horrendous now the more Microsoft patch it. It's just bloat now imho.

    Oh, that was on purpose, it was simply using an example as a definition. It was a poor choice of words, though.

    I also agree about the categories, definitely true, it can be overrated/underrated by either critics or consumers (or both).

    But I agree, I enjoyed this debate, too. But dang, you do read and write fast. My post definitely wasn't small, considering all the factors...geez. You're making me jealous.

    Of course it does, the core gamer is swayed by "what's popular and what's not", and that also plays into what they think about the games, but I can't say that every game that is overlooked is underrated. Similarly, I'd agree that overlooked games can be overrated, because they still have a fanbase, even if the game itself is crappy, that much is true.

    And yes, something can be overrated compared to something else, but I, like many others, don't use comparisons to determine if a game is good or not. I determine it by how good I think it is as game by itself. You don't need another game to determine if a game is overrated/underrated, you just need to have a good idea of what you consider is a good game (sure, that "idea" is formed from playing other games, but you're not comparing the games themselves, instead you're comparing the games' concepts, features, and what you take from the games subconsciously collectively to form your opinion on gaming as a whole, rather than seeing what the game does right relative to other games individually). You don't need to compare it to other games (though some people only do that), you just need the experience to determine what you personally believe makes a good game. Sure, I could say that one game is rated high and another game deserves that rating when the former game doesn't, but that doesn't determine which game is overrated and which is underrated; it can't, because the person who was thinking that was comparing two games, one they considered overrated and one they considered underrated, they decided that before they made the comparison. They decided that one game deserved a lower rating and one that deserved a higher rating first, then compared the two, nothing more than that. It's simply a comparison, not a determination which one is overrated or underrated (unless one person forms opinions through comparisons, in which case it is a determination). It really all depends on the person and how they form an opinion on something. (which is why I have a love-hate relationship with the subjective world we live in).

    uderrated doesn't necessarily mean that people feel it is bad, but not as good as other things which some people feel is inaccurate.
    I don't think I ever said that they said it was bad, just worse than the person who is looking at the general consensus' (or critical, it's objective) opinion thinks it is. If I did say it, it was probably by accident, but it might have just been a poor choice of words.

    Also, there was a 4 minute gap, but I didn't think you'd start reading it the moment I posted it, and then post a rather wholesome post yourself in that time, that would be a rather extreme prediction that I definitely wasn't ready to make.

    One last thing. I don't think that it's really fair to say that something is underrated or overlooked if someone forms an opinion about something yet don't make it publicly known. I see what you're saying, people do indeed form an opinion about something when they decide to look it over, even if it's not their final or full opinion about the item in question, but I don't think it's really the right thing to count those that have not publicly voiced that opinion. I don't really think I can say what my opinion about this is because, really, I've never even thought about it, what I'm saying now is on the spot, so I don't really think I can back it up or reinforce it (it requires more pondering on my part, though I am grateful that you've raised this theory, it's something to think about).

The post count was reduced? Wow, shows how much I've been here recently.

Aaaaanyway, what I wanted to blog about, I'm considering making a video game review series on YouTube, whether it will happen or not is another thing, but I plan on at least doing something on my YouTube channel in the next few days, so I thought I'd just say:

I love Chameleon Twist (the N64 game), and I'm not afraid to say it!

Now I can endlessly mock it as I am unbiased.
