| Wiped said: ^ No, Metacritic averages are just bogus. You cant possibly agree with both the 92 at the top and the 58 at the bottom. Perhaps you buy the game, and you lean towards one or the other. If you find one publication that you have trusted and has steered you towards many good games, then screw the metacritic average. It's made up of lots of reviews you wont agree with, but you will never know because they put you off the game. |
Sorry, but you didn't understand my post at all.
You said reviewers that you trust are better than the Metacritic averages. But that average isn't based on random numbers, but full reviews. People looking at reviews online don't just look for the average of every one, you can click and read a full review online you know. How is a published review different in that matter? If they get added to Metacritic it means they are somehow invalid and lacking substance in your opinion?
