EA Casual president Kathy Vrabek isn't too pleased with some of the reviews out there for casual games:
"Metacritic scores or the GameRankings scores are just off-base," insists Vrabek. "In fact, if you run a regression analysis against those scores on casual games or even kids games, sales don't correlate.
Of course, you could take this to mean that consumers buy crappy product. I disagree. Certain games are fun in small doses, or played with friends. Yet it seems many reviewers can't seem to get that. They expect every game to play just like Bioshock or Zelda.
