I don't think that there are any fundamental differences between all of us concerning the status of Gray matter.
IMHO it is better than very many, even most maybe, games that have been released over the past year or two.
The thing is, that being all agreed about the brilliance of Jane Jensen and our love of her games, we expected near perfection.
However almost everybody who has commented on the game has said that it's excellent or even wonderful, but then followed that with a list of criticisms.
I think that pretty well everybody agrees that her 3 GK games were terrific (a very few vey minor flaws do not change that – for any game!).
But I don't think that too many gamers will claim that GM is an unqualified success.
I believe that many of us would have loved to have proclaimed that it was a block buster and all time classic and to have praised Jane for that – but we have been disappointed that although a very worthwhile game, for various reasons it falls short of our expectations.
