The reason I started the thread was because of all the other threads constantly comparing the scores on metacritic and gamerankings. There are games that are obviously better on some PS3 then 360 and vice versa... Oblivion is an example for PS3, Virtua Fighter 5 is an example for 360. But, the scores at Metacritic and GameRankings don't necessarily reflect these facts.

My conclusion after seeing all these numbers... I think forum threads citing differences in game scores based on metacritic and gamerankings are for the most part useless. Instead, I think that metatacritic and gamerankings should be used to see if you want to buy a game as it is an average of reviews. Then, after you have made that decision look at the actual reviews to decide which platform you should buy it on if you own both or are looking to buy a NextGen console.
