Metacritic and Gamerankings do an excellent job of smoothing cases of bias from one or two reviewers. But they are not invincible: when a huge portion of the industry has a strong bias, not even Metacritic and Gamerankings can escape unscathed, and if virtually the whole industry is biased then MC and GR are helpless to stop it.
What we're seeing in this generation is a perfect example of this, with large numbers of reviewers openly biasing their reviews against one system or another. It skews even GR and MC to the point where they're only slightly less useless than a single outlet.
Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.
