“He didn’t cheat, he reprogrammed it to be winnable.”
 
Bull, that’s still cheating. He took the test multiple times and when it didn’t go his way, he strong armed it. Classic & Reboot Kirk cheated in the exact same way, just with different results (fear of Kirk vs. sudden sheild drop).
 
The point of the test is to show that a captian can’t outmanuver everything. That’s why Spock died, his son died, the original Enterprise blew up and why he was nearly blacklisted by Starfleet. Sure he got Spock, a new ship almost exactly like the old one and got put in a position he wanted (sucks about his son, tho but Trekkies seem to want to forget about Kirk’s failures unless they’re Kahn), but you can make the arguement that he still failed to understand the original point of the test. He got almost everything he wanted back and look where he eventually wound up: killed by a bridge trying to stop Malcolm McDowell from doing something stupid.
 
I’m not gonna pretend I’m a TOS expert (hell, I’m still only seen most of the movies, and half of the first season), but really all that article shows is upset Trekkies looking for a new reason to bitch about the reboot.
 
If that doesn’t satisfy you, the eat this: maybe without his daddy around to impose strong morals in him, Reboot Kirk is more slippery. Whatever.

The hell are you talking about? The movie was fine & the comics are good. And the sequel looks like it’ll be great.
