Hey in every medium, when something is loved and gushed about by the majority of critics, we can call them critical darlings. It's not an insult. It's perfectly neutral. Now we have metacritic, which aggregates those reviews, so metadarlings is just a funnier way to say that. Godfather 2, Citizen Kane, and The Shawshank Redemption are metadarlings, and so is GTAIV with its Oscar-worthy dialogue.

No it comes across as derogative, though you're really shooting yourself in the back in the process, do you know how many wii games are highly rated here compared to metacritic? If we could get on Meta it would somewhat help the Wii's performance there. You and your wii friends have made it clear you don't care, mainly because it doesn't swing in your favour. That's fine, don't spoil it for the rest of us that do find metacritic to be a good measure on a games library. Because simply

Metacritic > your opinion (or any individuals come to that)

 

Metacritic is the accumulation of all the bias we may found on some gaming websites and amongst some gaming "journalists", nothing more, nothing less...

When it comes to Wii and DS games i may like or not, the only opinion i trust is mine, and also most of the times, the ones of my friends here, and the ones found on a few websites i still read, and are really worth my time...

If you don't see where's the problem with most Wii reviews these days, that's fine, but don't ask us to accept the situation like the brainless sheeps most gamers are becomin' these days... when the opinions of 5 to 10 stupid reviewers (amongst 50 to 100) is enough to ruin a metascore, then that metascore means NOTHING...

And a game like Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn will be AAA in my heart, even if it's scored under 80 on such a "reliable" compilation of bullshit...

The opinions of hundreds of "true" Wii lovers have way more importance than the opinions of that self-proclaimed "gaming elit", like it or not...

 

I would have to play a few Wii games before I agreed with you, but without that I can't make a decision on if reviewers are anti bias or not. On one hand I have a bunch of wii owners sayng "this game should have been rated 99/100" ect every game seems to be a f***ing god send, on the other wii games DO get rated averagly by some reviewers/sites?

There are plenty of AAA games I don't think deserved it on the HD consoles, and some I think did but didn't get AAA. But who am I to make up the rules on what's AAA.

Whatever people like to say, AAA (around here) is regarded as 90+ on metacritic. When it becomes the norm you have to respect that and agree with it, just like the term fanboy is not acceptable here. If anyone would like to come up with any term, don't let it be for 90+ rated games on Metacritic, because it already has one. Let it be for "Wii games that didn't make 90+ on metacritic"

@ Khuutra - I'm not going round in circles, I think it's derogatory, you don't, let's agree to disagree.
