| Masakari said: Actually, he's right. Everybody who's not in denial knows that: 1) for a long time this gen the lead plat was 360, it's only begun to change / vary recently 2) for a long time this gen the best version on multiplats was 360, it's only begun to change / vary recently This is fact. And easily seen by the amount of internet bitching it has created on several cases (just recently Bayonetta, for example). I know if I was a reviewer, I would try to judge a game by it's best version. For CoDs, for example, that would be PC, for stuff like Bayonetta it would be 360, heck, if anything, it's an advantage to a lesser port version, as they don't differentiate from score in the review, they just say which version they tried. They do say if X port is worse, but that isn't reflected in that game/platform's metacritic. A review is an opinion, don't like it, fine. Why bitch about it on the web? I seriously don't get that. |
Agreed. Case in point: Edge opted to test the PS3 version of Darksiders over the 360 version this month. From what I can gather from mumblings and grumblings on the web, this is one of the few titles where the PS3 version is superior, so fair play to Edge for approaching their reviews in this way.
I think I've mentioned this on here before, but I'm expecting their upcoming God of War review might leave fanboys spitting vitriol....just the impression I've got from a couple of their moderately enthusiastic previews. I reckon they'll give it 7 or 8. I'm interested to see what they'll give Bioshock 2 actually, I reckon 7 for that too.
