No, not better. I don't need to buy a copy of any Derek Smart game to know that it's going to be ****ing terrible. I can rely on many hundreds of professional and user-created reviews and previews, I can look it up on metacritic, I can ask my friends.
Similarly: I did not need to buy SH5 to know that it would be a bug-ridden pile of **** - SH3 and SH4 already set that standard, and lo - I was right.
You see, Humans have an ability to learn based on past experiences, and the unique ability to use their imagination to predict (with some accuracy) the outcome of future events based on this experience. It's a survival instinct that separates us from the Animals.
Well, it separates me from the animals. I'm not too sure about you, since you're only capable of learning through direct experience.
