GTA 4, Red Dead Redemption, Call of Duty 4, Call of Duty MW2, Bioshock, Street Fighter 4, Elder Scrolls Oblivion, and Assassins Creed 2 all have higher Metacritic's then every game you just listed besides Uncharted 2. Also 7 out of the top 10 games for PS3 based on Metacritic are multi-plats, only 3 are exclusives. Basically the same way on the 360. So no. Exclusives aren't generally considered better quality. At all. |
Its a matter of percentage, not looking at certain exclusives or multiplatforms. I think its right to say that exclusive are generally considered better quality, but then again, it isnt solely because its easier to focus only on one console. Exclusives usually have bigger budget, more hype and support from the publisher. From my observations, its pretty common for multiplatforms to have lower scores than exclusives. You can always find exceptions, though. It would be too long to do it, but if someone have the percentage of multiplats below 60% (or 70%/80%) meta VS the percentage of exclusives below 60% (or 70%/80%)meta that would be interesting.
