Gee, Metacritic is such a MESS. You know, they include so many "foreign" reviews. You may look at one game and find tons of reviews from european sites: italian, swedish, german, portuguese, etc etc. Even reviews to imports (chineses, japanese versions) Isn't Metacritic a site completely written in ENGLISH? I don't know but I think all those reviews from outside USA are out of place. It seems to me Metacritic is an american website. Why do they have to include reviews the majority of their readers (americans) won't know shit about since they're not written in English?

horrible, horrible, horrible post.

Why is that? would you be posting here if you didn't understand English? Would you visit VGC if it was written in a language you didn't understand?

Metacritic translates the conclusion and gives you the score. If you want to know what was in the review, but you don't understand the language, tough luck, use a translating service.

Metacritic is a site for anyone who can read numbers, not just americans. Metacritic gathers scores and opinions on games from professional reviewers, and since those are what metacritic will post on their site, the original language of the review doesn't matter, just as it shouldn't. Why in the world would you disregard an opinion, just because you don't understand the language of the review behind the opinion?
