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.


Pretty much this. And especially the italicized.

 

Also, Metacritic is now crap because they don't have their N64 reviews anymore. They can go fuck themselves for redesigning their site.
