The way people bow and scrape at the altar of metacritic will never not be hilarious to me.

Well, bonuses are still paid with Metacritic so even publishers put weight into them.

We're not publishers and I doubt that was the perspective the OP was intending to portray.

What we end up with, then, is a "list wars" entry that includes years old ports like Fez and Rayman Legends but leaves out games like Dragon Age, Far Cry, Final Fantasy XIV, and Mario + Rabbids.  Ask the average video game fan which is more relevant and see what they say.  Threads like this are just meta-score masterbation exercises with very little real meaning.  That's why it makes me chuckle when someone touts an arbitrary "90" from a handful of strangers while disregarding an "89".  That's just silly and makes people look out of touch with reality.
