And metacritic isnt without flaws ...as I remarked in other thread

1)Virtually identical games have a better (AAA) review on the 360 and not on the PS3 because the PS3 version came some months later.

2)The Live Arcade games make for a huge amount of the difference in AAA games for both systems.Games that arent say as the best PSN offerings as Warhawk ,GT5 P ,Siren or Wipeout HD but really old games with a hand of paint over PS1 and DC games in Live.Best example Castlevania SOTN ...it appears as AAA on the 360 in Metacritic and doesnt appear at all for the PS3 when you can buy it in the PSN.

3) Anomalies....now many old sports games as NBA Live ,Tiger Woods,NHL ,NBA 2K,NHL 2K ,Madden 06 versions make the lion share of the difference between PS3 and 360 in metacritic.This shoudl be remedied.More ,others as GRAW1 and GH2 appear as AAA in the 360 when the superior sequels as GH3 and GRAW2 are out for both machines .Those anomalies are stupid once you think about it ....yet when you cite metacritic you are citing those as well.
