Why should everyone think the same of every game and rate it according to others expectations?  Censorship of reviews is just as bad as supposed spoiler reviews, who decides which reviews are genuine or not?

Teletext just gave inFamous a 6/10. This is the same, obsolete review outlet that gave Killzone 2 a 7/10.

Needless to say, just as with their KZ2 review, their 6/10 has been instantly added by Metacritic, dragging the overall down to 85.

Funny how Metacritic immediately adds obscure sites lacking any form credibility when they give PS3 exclusives an unfairly low score, but then never index the reviews of minnow sites that rate PS3 exclusives well.

Oh well, time to go back to gameranking. They only use trusted reviews, and it really shows, considering how Infamous is still standing at over 88%.

Metacritic is dead to me now, absolutely pathetic.

So much Metacritic hate

Anyway, looks like my 88 prediction is way of fnow.

This happens with all games... Stop whining. If you think metacritic is bullshit then why care about it?

They can suck my Metaditic. Why not let X-Boxhater.com review Gears?

That's it, I'm going back to GameRankings, MetaCritic is full of crap!!! There, how's that for a fanboy rant, pretty good huh, unoriginal yet to the point!!!

Well we can add atleast 10 points to that score, because being a PS3 exclusive automatically loses the game points in most reviewer's minds.

This Metacritic turmoil is absurd.

If the game gets good reviews, then people who like the game insist Metacritic is a reasonable and objective analysis of the game. If the game gets, say, 85 or below, clearly Metacritic is biased and its trash and games journalism sucks.

I think it would be silly to believe that games journalism is an objective industry, given what we know (the sorts of financial pressures game companies put on them, like Sony cancelling their inFamous review or Ubisoft delisting EGM after their Assassin's Creed review, or providing "exclusive" reviews to preferred outlets), but at least that's a consistent position. Either state that Metacritic IS an objective outlet -- in which case you'll agree that inFamous is a good, but not great game -- or that Metacritic is not an objective outlet.

What you can't do, however, is trumpet Metacritic when it suits your interest , then claim bias and omg Metacritic sucks the second it turns against you.

FFS, 3 points, you guys are bitching over 3 ponts, it's pathetic.
