No, because they wont update the score once the servers will work, once the game will have weather and more car, no one update reviews for that (while they should because reviews dont represent the actual game after all updates)

It's NOT the first time Polygon did this - first time was with Simcity, and they revise they score four times because of warying server conditions http://www.polygon.com/2013/3/4/4051444/simcity-review

So I think they should just increase score back to normal when Driveclub will be fully operational.

Yes. Hell yes.

This way you wouldn't have games like MW2 scoring 91 on metacritic.

Yes!

In a way yeah they are. But they should raise it back up once issues are resolved. Then raise it more once weather and photo mode are released.

You judge all games by the same criteria. If you judge one game, a game that has a functional single-player mode as far as I know, by its online functionality, you must judge ALL games by the same criteria.

So reviews are now properly one with the games industry. Released too soon with errors and patched up as an afterthought (usually only after public outcry).

In a sense, I disagree with changing review scores. They should be accurate from the outset, and held back if sufficient time or experience with the game has not been attained. Much like games. Allowing alterations only encourages a rushed review, in order to 'be first' and generate views, which can be fixed up later to save face.

We have Metacritic (sadly too important in the industry) which will not use updated review scores. An inaccurate review will permanently, unfairly bolster or tarnish any game. There is also the potential for this to be done intentionally, without any repercussions. Initial sales are similarly affected. With so much money on the line (game sales, site revenue, Metacritic related bonuses etc.) there is a clear conflict of interest and reviews need to be held to a higher standard.

Perhaps we need to start reviewing reviewers as well (and take control of that nasty weighting used by Metacritic, if the industry so insists upon using it). Marks can be awarded for consistency, accuracy and bias (towards publishers, genres etc.).

I agree with you 100%

Only if they raise the review score of some games that improve shortly after being released.

MW2 has a 94 metacritic.

OT: Well if you lower the score of a game, you better be ready to raise it when patches come out, that's only fair. Imagine if BF4 or GTA5 had their scores changed because their MP's were atrocious at launch.
