I just wanted to highlight that it's all fanboyism everywhere, sometimes open, sometimes in disguise.

Maybe stealth trolling is too strong of a word to describe it. And I never did. But still im trying to prove a point.

It can't be a coincidence that all the Sony biased members so far have given 8s?

KylieDog 8.0
CGI 8.5
FameMcSwagg 8.0
Aldro 8.0
Carl 8.9
Rick 8.2
Boutros 8.3
SciFiBoy 8.2

Eight votes, Sony fan average = 8.27

If you believe there's no bias hidden in this, I think you're a very naive person.

Like if told already, if the game was on Ps3 then I would've given it the score it deserved: a 7 - 7.5 . Also, maybe the reason that these people own a Ps3, is because they like those exclusives better. As the score indicates, they don't hate Halo, they just don't find it as 'perfect' as some 360 fans do.

 

EDIT: People should rate games on how they think about it, and not based on what it 'deserves'.

Well, I fully agree that it very well may be that it's in fact the Sony fans that are giving Halo 3 and other X360 games the 'real' score it deserves while the X360 fans are giving inflated numbers. But that's not my point. The point is the evergoing console war, the ranking of games, overrating your side while downplaying the competition, and the bias which I've shown statistically by the huge difference in average scores between Sony fans and X360 fans. (it's the same for all games, exclsuives, multiplatforms etc, the voting trends are clear)
