Here is a disturbing comment from the Sonic Colors review on Destructoid:
"It's the real GotY to real gamers. Now if you're a casual gamer that likes kid's games (Kirby), interactive movies (Enslaved), or the FPS flavor of the month (Black Ops), then you won't understand, and you likely never will. I've been a hardcore gamer since the Atari 2600, and I've played everything you can possibly imagine, and Vanquish is one of the best games I've ever played; a true evolution of the action game. And unlike most popular games today, it will be remembered 20 years from now, worshiped even, because we'll likely never see anything like it again, because most people aren't smart enough to recognize superior gameplay when it slaps them right in the face, or they don't care for it when they do, because they're playing for other reasons (social gaming, graphics whoring, or to just experience something different), and most gamers today are playing for the novelty of it all and my guess is 5 years from now they'll get bored of video games and move on. But we real gamers will still be here long after that day comes, and we'll remember Vanquish."
Most gamers are very protective and don't want anyone else to be in their little club. Remember, he is a "real gamer".
