360 fans feeling down with Alan Wake reviews trickling in? Is any average under 90 just not allowed to be praised in some way here? Yes it falls under the title of being a flop (unless by some miracle it averages back up to 90) in the eyes of many but when does that mean 360 fans would feel "let down"?

Did I say 84 Meta is crap or something? I never said fans were let down but they were feeling a bit disappointed and hence why I said in the OP that they weren't feeling so good about it. Why? You could tell from Seece's Alan Wake Thread. Slimebeast said that he wanted this to be the next big X360 franchise and would be great ammo for the Console war. But he said he felt disappointed. Selnor and Seece predicted 94 on Metacritic but obviously that didn't work out so they wouldn't feel good about it would they?

But you did point out a mistake in my OP. In the OP I said X360 fans when it should've been Alan Wake Fans. Fans of Alan Wake and Survival Horror. That's who I was referring. I never meant to generalize the X360 fans and that was my fault but I never said the current scores were bad or anything. Some people just had high expectations for it.
