hah I wish, I just meant that even if you're like 5 minutes faster than the expected time of 10 minutes you still only get 5 stars. But your CP/TP reward is the number of seconds you were under times the points per second, so you still get a hell of a lot more experience than if you 3-starred it.

And Shauk, I re-read your wall of text. My objection is not to technical measurements of comparative quality. But subjective qualifications, like "isn't anywhere near as impressive" (title, subject tof review) I can object to. No matter the supposed technical difference between the two, I still can't see a difference myself during play. If I stared at screenshots long enough I might be able to, but even the CGI renders are moving quickly enough that you'd have to be a pedant to see the difference. We're not talking VHS vs blu-ray here.
