d21lewis said: Metacritic is just a one stop shop for reviews. I look at a few of them, read a couple of the good ones to see what they like, read a couple of the bad ones to see what they didn't like (and if those things matter to me) and then I go back to watching oily gangbang porn. Too much emphasis is placed on that final number. I don't give a damn about that number. It's just another tool I use to make better informed purchases. I do admit that sometimes, I check Meta after I buy a game, too. I like to feel vindicated about my purchases. |
Why do you like to feel vindicated? I hardly look at review scores. I know what type of games I like and I'm usually happy with my purchases. I trust my judgement. I'll only read review scores if I don't know anything about the game and I want to get an idea of what the game is about. lol
