It's not.
I mean, it's a joke, but it's supposed to be serious.

Really? It really seems like it's a sattire. I mean, I'm not talking about the score, but some sentences are just nonsense XD. Well, you never know. I'm surprised.

He actually uses praising the game technical prowess as a point to call something bad out of nowhere.

"A Thief’s End” is overflowing with useless detail. It overwhelms the eye with so many different points of focus that one almost clings to the over-the-shoulder focal point at the center of the screen, where the gun reticle can at least hint at a potential ways of engaging with all of the simulated objects and effects that are otherwise impossible to identify, let alone differentiate."

 

But you haven't played the game. How can you bash this without even trying the game in the first place? Maybe you start playing and suddenly get overwhelmed with the amount of things on screen that simply don't allow you to properly enjoy the game.

You can't complain without having played the game!

Living on planet earth must be painful for him. Maybe he should go to Russia and bore himself to death.

Yeah honestly I can understand what the reviewer is saying, I had the same problem with Duck Hunt because there was a tree.

 

Phew. You don't know how relieved your comment makes me. I thought I was the only one who had problems with that damn tree.

Your post is getting on the same level of his review... just don't.
At least I know yours is an actual joke XD

 

The best part is that is that I've already played the game a bit, whereas I don't think you haven't even started it.

Exactly, it's a joke, but it's the actual review.

A bit? Go finish it, dammit!

 

The copy isn't mine. I'll swap it for DS3 with a friend once he beats it, so we get to play the other game. Until then I have to wait!

but this older positive review published in Washington Post is an AP review too, so why was this ignored?

Metacritic take staff reviews from Washington Post, which is the 4/10 one (actually unscored, but they send the score directly to Metacritic).
The other review was not made by their staff.

lol, too bad the wrong guy 'reviewed' it. This is the response of another staff member

I mean, it's not "Metacric user score" level of BS, but not bad. I mean, nothing can be worse than:

"Its not a game. its a movie. Not bad visuals, disgusting gameplay, and very poor story. As a game its not deserve any mark, but zero. Give me back my money." 0/10

I love that XD.

I know that everyone has his opinion, but I don't think the review is very professional. And it's really nitpicking. But a lot.

4/10!!?!?! That means Uncharted 4 is one of the WORST games on ps4!!!

ABORT PURCHASE!

I just put mine back in the case and wrapped it in plastic wrap! How could I have spent money on such a thing! In my best Killzone 3 voice...This is an OUTRAGE!!!!!

Welp, not getting it now. Would've got it... had it been able to keep that sweet score of 94. But alas I'm not getting it. Think about it, it has sunken to the level of 3D World and the like. Ew.

You should do what Nikkom would do. Carefully open the plastic seal, open the case, fart in it, then close the case and reseal super quickly to keep the smell of the fart fresh. After all, anyone purchasing something as bad as a 93 meta deserves fart smell in their game case.
