Outsider here, but I do not think a game being "playstation exclusive" is valid criteria for judging the quality of a game. Movies arent rated by which movie theatres show them. The same applies to the console.

The only way this criticism would be valid is if the aruguement was made that because its a PS exclusive the game is hindered by hardware limitations.

Otherwise the criticism should be directed towards the publisher or the platform. A good game is a good game no matter what system runs it.

He isn't saying they are bad because they are PlayStation exclusive, he just hasn't thought much of the PlayStation exclusive games he has played.

Which is the same as immediately discounting a movie because it was produced by a particular person you dont like, before going in and seeing it.

Either way it prevents him fr being objective by holding a bias against playstation games.

There's a fine line between being critical of a game for its faults and calling it "the worst game ever". How can something that has received such critical acclaim while at the same time becoming such a commercial success be "the worst game ever"? What exactly is he comparing it to? I can think of several games which were received far worse than DS3. It's just patently false to attempt to label it as such.

A reviewer should at least try to remain objective even though whether or not you personally like a game is subjective. It's clear this guy is not even a little objective, and that his opinions don't seem to mirror reality.

Whether or not a game is "The worst game ever" is subjective. To him, it could be the worst game ever. Being "The worst game ever" or "the best game ever" is completely subjective, and is an opinion. It is the same as listing it on your personal top 10 list. Top 10 lists are always subjective, bottom 10 lists are always subjective. "the worst game ever" is always subjective. To him, it could be the worst game ever. To him, the story could be horrible. To him, the game-play could be horrible. It could very well be the worst game ever to him. It could be right at the bottom of the top 10 worst games to him. There is nothing to be objective about in a review, a review is your opinion, and what you personally (subjectively) have to say about it.

No, it's particularly quantitative based on popular opinion. A game that is generally well received by the majority can't be "the worst game ever".
