LOL, why do you keep bringing console gamers into this??? To make PC gamers look better??? Nice try. And Gears 2 is rated much higher than Big Rigs.what

 

To answer your question I find both equaly bad. There is a diffrence between lowering the score and giving the game 0 because its a downgrade from COD 4. The game maynot as good as COD 4 but its sure as hell better than Big Rigs and deserves much higer score than 1.4

 

You still don't seem to see the point, it's not that they're saying the game is worse than Big Rigs, these aren't professional reviewers we're talking about. The point is to make developers/publishers take note that the decisions they've made recently have annoyed and frustrated their customers. Annoying your customers isn't good business practice. If it in any way makes the devs take note than whilst it may appear stupid at first, it's worthwhile.

And making the game worst rated PC game, insulting IW,saying its a cheap console port and give it score lower than Big Rigs is the way to do it???

 

Some people will come to metacritic web site and they'll think MW2 is the worst game ever because some pissed of people give it 0 because its not as good as COD 4. That's what pisses me off

Worked for the DRM on Spore and Bioshock didn't it? After all, the customer is always right! And if the score is 1.4 it's probably not just a "some" people giving it a lower score. It shouldn't piss you off, just play the game on consoles like you were going to. The consoles have the superior version this time round.

Most PC players will have heard of the lack of dedicated servers already, and with a game as big MW2, if they don't know, they'll find out when they look at the user & PC reviews on metacritic & amazon. With a user score of 1.4 it makes them take note and look into why the user score is low. PC players that know of the problems will now:

1. Not buy the game on PC and possibly get the game on a console

2. Wait until they find a cheaper copy (like me)

3. Pirate it, play SP, play a bit of MP, delete it and most likely go back to CoD4 MP.

I already know people that have done 1 & 3. Basically, this is the result of IW/Activision screwing up on the PC version. It might seem stupid but it's worked in the past and it lets other devs that were thinking of doing similar things know that the customers don't want it.
