Again, as I said in my OP;
Your opinion =/= fact. If you think Reach is a big steaming pile, then that is your opinion.
I've never understood why people say this. Opinions are either right or wrong.Opinions by nature are neither, what are you talking about? I can have the opinion that I'm fat and someone else can have the opinion I'm not, but it doesn't make either of us wrong, we may just classify "fat" differently. Or in Reach's case, you may not be having any as much fun as I do in the game because we're either playing the game differently or we just like different things in a game, and those factors affect our opinions to be different.
"Fat" would obviously have to be defined clearly for misunderstandings not to occur. Once we'd precisely defined "fat", however, the truth value of "Phoenix9508 is fat" would be discoverable.
Also, we could define what is meant by "good game", and then defend the truth or falsity of "Halo Reach is a good game"-and be sure that one of us is right.
Equally, I could be of the opinion that "The Sahara is freezing cold", and we could also work out whether or not this is true.
Note also that "Opinions are not right or wrong" (honestly, this is so ridiculously ignorant it makes my head hurt) is also an opinion, and thus the position undermines itself.
