Before i go for a shower i want to ask this.

Will the score of 21/20 be put onto Metacritic + Gamerankings?

I demand an answer for when im back!

No.

I haven't gone yet. But why not?

For one, they will never put a score above 100%, there is no extra credit in reviews.

They will take the 21/20 and translate it to 100%

 

That news saddens me.

I wanted PS3 GTA4 to be knocked off as Game of the Generation.

So Metacritic determines game of the generation? lol.

I challenge you to find someone who says GTA 4 is the best game of this generation, or if you go by all metacritic scores, the past 2 generations. Game journalism is so unprofessional practically anyone can write reviews and eventually get them up on metacritic. Plus it seems like games are rated on a 7-10 scale rather than a 0-10 scale. Anything with a metacritic score below 80 is usually considered a not so great game, which is completely ridiculous. 50 should be an average game, not bad, not amazing. 90-100 should be rare.

In the movie industry there are only a few 90+ movies a year. many fantastic movies are rated 40-50.

Game reviews going beyond 10/10 further shows how unprofessional the industry is, and it won't be taken seriously.
