Why are all the specific examples revolving around Sony?

Because being harsh on Sony makes you a bad website.

Regarding TLOU review that was a weak score, for a game I would say was the best experience I had on my PS3. Polygon's review of Beyond Two Souls, was the only reason I actually picked up the title, I was so frustrated with Quantic Dream's controls on Heavy Rain, I was almost certain I would of seen even worse, BTS was in my opinion and awesome title and it's in the top 5 best games I've played for the console. These days I don't really even look at Polys reviews, I try to look else ware and get pro's and con's scores for titles I'm interested in.

Biased scoring I really couldn't say I see it, they have given a lot of low scores to MS games, sometimes even lower than the avg I see from other sites I go to.



They are shitty. The less people post about the ass clowns the quicker they will go away.



 

Last gen it was destructoid, this gen it will be polygon? Evidently review sites just arent allowed to dislike sony exclusives. They are terrible people if they dont have fantastic opinions of sony exclusives...

And honestly, that whole ps4 doesnt support remotes, is that really something to get up in arms about? Who cares, the only people that would care about that arent going to be online reading about it anyway...

Polygon wasn't completely wrong to begin with. Xbox One simply supports a much wider range of remotes than PS4.

It's a shit site. Rev3 gaming is also shit. There are many, many places to go which specialize in what you are seeking, run by really smart people. No need to be patronized and marginalized by some internet idiots.

But that's not the point. The problem is that they are completely inconsistent between reviews. They clearly just search for any excuses to rate PS4 games lower than X1.

The occasional stuttering or rare drops (during cinematics) forced them to downrate COD on PS4 but clearly, it didn't disturb them when stuttering is 99% present in DR3 or Ryse or when DR3 drops to 17fps or Ryse drops to 16fps, it is not a problem either or they just didn't see the drops (But they clearly noticed the drops on PS4 games). That is clearly unfair. And we still haven't see DF next gen face-off with COD...

We may still have others "Ryseistic" surprises with others games.

Polygon gave

Ryse a 6 -  0,1 lower than avarege meta score,

Dead Rising 3  a 7,5 - 0,3 lower than avarage meta score.

LocoCycle and Crison Dragon both 4. - 0,8 and 1,5 lower than avarage meta score.

Is that enough? Is this fair?



quarter to three are the worst gaming journalist around.



calling polygon guys journalists is a crime.

the main question about this article should have been.

How could such a shitty thing like polygon grew so fast so big?
