Its not about getting mad that a game has a lower rating. Its about trying to use opinions as facts. In this case, as you said, Metacritic is a guage of a grouping of opinions. How is that any basis of guaging if a game is 'AAA' quality? As someone else said, an AAA game can be stated as the games where a company put their most time and money into. So let's take the example of New Super Mario Bros Wii. It wasn't panned by Critics, but just because it doesn't have a 90 avg on metacritic, its now not an AAA game? Yet it was clearly one of, if not the top offering from Nintendo in 2009 and hardly anyone will dispute a top quality game with AAA written all over it. Long story short, opinions, even that of 'critics', shouldn't guage what makes a game 'the best'. Or in this case, 'AAA' status. It goes right back to what I was trying to say about 'AAA' status just being a major grey area. |
Well, it is, and it's something you need to get over because it isn't going anywhere.
