I wonder why only PS3 owners and biased websites/blogs dedicated to PS3 that don't even qualify to metacritic such as iWaggle, are the only ones glorifying this game.

 

Metascore is down again, to 48, based on 18 reviews.

 

 

Try again, the highest scores are from indipendent publications: Eurogamer 80, TheSixthAxis 70, Gaming Age 67, Game Informer 65, while the lowest score is from Playstation Lifestyle 20 (IGN is now second lowest). iWaggle is not even in metacritic.

Probably you confused The Fight with some kinect games: Fighters Uncaged (meta: 32, highest scores: Mondo Xbox 75, Official Xbox Magazine 60), Adrenalin Misfits (meta: 48, highest score: MS Xbox World 70), Sonic Free Riders (meta: 49, highest scores: MS Xbox World 75, Official Xbox Magazine 75, IGN 75), Kinect Joyride (meta: 53, highest scores: MS XBbox World 75).

Fail?

 

I'm talking about the websites that don't qualify for metacritic and are not reliable at all and people keep linking them and random fanboys on youtube.

I can also have a shitty biased website, or a youtube account and review a trahsy game and say it is the holy grail.

Yes, you fail.

Only one website linked (iWaggle), no hype from PS fanboys (Playstation Lifestyle gave it a 20) and just a few gameplay videos (gameplay videos, not random fanboys): what are you babbling about?

The problem with reviewers is that they are always biased (a fps-lover would give a low score to an RTS and vice-versa) and that their bias are determined by trends. An uber-example? Just Dance!

Just Dance sits at 49 on metacritic (pretty bad, uh?), but it sold millions (maybe it wasn't so bad afterall), so now the same guys who gave 20's and 30's to Just Dance are rating Just Dance 2 with 70's and 80's (major offender: IGN with a 20 for Just Dance and an 80 for Just Dance 2). Since The Fight is a new type of game (probably the first  1:1 controls, no gesture based fighting game), it's clear that many reviewers are biased toward it: they don't dare to appreciate a game, that they don't know if people like.
