Most games on PS/XBOX tend to get overinflated scores. I mean, just check the games that got over 90%+.

Look at Arkham City on the Wii U, it got 11 points less on average. Then look at games like Journey, TLOU: R, Fez, Bastion, Flower, Shovel Knight (PS4), etc.

Titanfall, with no singleplayer campaign and not a lot of content got 86%. Halo: MCC, who's online still doesn't work correctly, is sitting at 85%.


Your argument kinda fell apart when you said Titanfall has a lot of content lol



Prediction for console Lifetime sales:

Wii:100-120 million, PS3:80-110 million, 360:70-100 million

[Prediction Made 11/5/2009]

3DS: 65m, PSV: 22m, Wii U: 18-22m, PS4: 80-120m, X1: 35-55m

I gauruntee the PS5 comes out after only 5-6 years after the launch of the PS4.

its not wrong at all, it means that Nintendo has set the bar higher than the competition, and thats why there are so many good games getting mediocre scores on Nintendo systems .. Right?

Now seriously.... We have a different reviewer, the game cost 1/3 of the original release and they fixed major glitches and bugs so maybe, and just maybe, that guy might think it deserve a better score than the original. Not to mention meta is higher with the original so, no point in complainning for one review imo


as long as the reviewer really mentioned those factors to provide the 7.5 score, I'm fine with it. Is that really the case?

I said the opposite of that actually.



Remember this:

Sonic Adventure 2 (Dreamcast- june 2001) 9.4/10

Sonic Adventure 2 Battle (Gamecube December 2001) 6.9/10

Battle is superior in every way and was only ported a year after the original, different reviewers, different standards and taste. I think the second review was more reflective of the games actual quality.

Oh I thought you were comparing it to Halo MCC, my bad - you are saying both are overated.  I would agree, but the reason MCC gets its decent scores is for the massive amount of content it contains (Although outdated).

 

But anyways there is a reason Tlou and Journey got better scores -> they are flat out better games.  Also a lot of the games you are complaining about being scored worse on the Wii U got scored worse because they are worse.

Isnt it well known the game sold almost 900K and would have passed a million if Boobie-Soft didnt kill it themselves?

It is overtracked on VGC. I think it should be at around ~500k LTD.

But the reason why it failed is because Bewbie-Soft a) Had high expectations. It didn't do bad for a launch title; or b) Did a bad job at managing their budget. The game was a port of a cancelled PS360 game, then it became a Wii U exclusive. At least both games were shooters, but the former took place in Space or something like that.

Right. SImilarly to how Tomb Raider had to sell over 3 million to not lose money or something like that. Crazy stuff.



Disgusting.

Always fun to see the goalposts move with regards to how acceptable meta scores are depending on the hardware manufacturer isn't it?
