Is that a comparison? Yes. Is that fair or profound? No. Did I say that they have to be in order to qualify as a comparison? I don't think so. And as a matter of fact, I remember painstakingly pointing out the very fact in my post. Something which you obviously missed so masterfully. Brilliant, genius. Well, wait...no, more like retarded.

They can be compared, yes, but there is no way to draw a conclusion from comparisions except which genre of game you like more.
Since this sentence says, "there is no way to draw a conclusion from [comparisons] except which genre of game you like more," I'll argue based upon the fact that you're saying that there is no way to draw a conclusion from comparisons in general except which genre of game you like more. Well, actually, I cannot because it's an obvious red-herring. So any comparison at all only allows conclusions that let's people to determine what kind of bias they have for games? So if I were to compare elephants to ants, that comparison would let you determine which genre of game you prefer? Sounds moronic, doesn't it?

But let me get back to my original point: we compare things that are totally different from each other all the time. And if you think about it, what's so stimulating about comparing two of the same things? If comparisons are made only to be centered around two of the same things, what the hell good is it?

Jesus Christ, is this so damn hard to grasp?
