Really? You mean you actually missed the classic "You will want to work longer hours to buy our console!" statement by Sony (the CEO who actually said that is now gone LOL)? Sony was so far removed from the average gamer last generation it wasn't even funny. What was it? A $600 or $700 price...
You are clearly an outlier when it comes to Vanguard. His opinion on Vanguard was spot on for the far, far majority of MMO gamers. So yeah, UT can't account for outliers who are going to "like" some game that is ALMOST universally held to be a POS.
