Well, I'm not sure. I just have a problem with Metacritic.
A games like Fable II and Demon Souls sold very well, got a lot of 90+ reviews and are loved by many.They got ripped. -Metacritic assigns numerical ratings attached to reviews that don't have one. This is based on thier opinion. -A game will sit at 90 for a long time and then they will add one more review taking it down to 89 and leaving it there. This happens a lot -The sites they use are inconsistent. Obviously a PlayStation site is going to review the PS3 version and a 360 site a 360 version. Those sites tend to be biased towards their own copy of the game. The game might be the same on each system but one might give it a 95, the other a 97. It is a bit misleading.
What I'm saying is I consider some games below 90 on Metacritic to be AAA titles. Some examples are: Fable II - 89 Demon Souls - 89 Left 4 Dead 2 - 89 GTA: Ballad of Gay Tony - 89 Ratchet & Clank: ToD - 89 etc. You're not doing anything wrong, I'm just personally not a fan of MC. I feel it can be just a bit misleading and unfortnately gives some games a bad rep. Cool thread though. It is intersting to see the list. |
I hear what you're saying and agree... Infact I really don't care much for AAA scores and will play a game if i like the concept/demo. I can't stand half of thsoe AAA games cause they are not my type of games.
But I was bored, and something like this is cool to see... which games got the "nod" from the industry. :)
