So the game is pretty bad then, meh, was always getting it in the bargain bin anyway, now I'll just pick it up when it's 5 bucks or so in 6 months


I'll probably pick it up later on and play it. I won't wait until it's in the bargain bid. 

BTW, I was not looking at your chest....I was look at your eyes. haha

Median review score at present is 70. That suggests the very low scores (especially that 2/10 outlier) is having an undue influence on the meta score. A 70 median is pretty good all things considered. I think that means I can take the risk and buy this game, not at full price, but not at bargain bin price either.

(95+86+85+82+81+81+(7*80)+79+(3*78)+(3*75)+(8*70)+69+65+65+(9*60)+55+55+(4*50)+45+(3*40)+20)/51=66,71

That's the arithmetic mean, not the median. For your edification:

  1. To find the Median, place the numbers you are given in value order and find the middle number. Example: find the Median of {13, 23, 11, 16, 15, 10, 26}. The middle number is 15, so the median is 15. (If there are two middle numbers, you average them.)

In that sequence the arithmetic mean is 16.3.

And it's interesting to note that the weighted mean is 65, which means the reviewers that gave gave low reviews carry more weight with metacritic than the reviewers that gave good reviews.

You'll have to wait until next gen.

That's not going to stop me of sharing my opinions, but I agree that this situation is very ridiculous. 

This is a fragment from the Atomix's review for The Order:

The Order: 1886 has exceptional graphics which give the player a totally cinematic experience with a thrilling story. Ready at Dawn shows us what the PlayStation 4 is capable of, but the game has minor flaws that influence the overall experience negatively.

That little shows how the game has its good things, and overall it's an enjoyable experience, but it clearly has its share of flaws. This is how the regular review for this game behaves for this game, but many people thing the wrong thing: a 65 Metascore is not equal to critics hating on the respective game. Does it have to get 9 and 10s to be entertaining?



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.
