I was kinda looking forward to this as some pushback against the forces of political correctness. Think I'll skip it for now. I just don't feel like making the choices in Farmageddon's quote.
In the academic sense an F used to mean anything below 49. Not sure what it means now or on meta. Nothing playable deserves below 50 imo and since no game can achieve perfection they shouldn't be handing out 100s either. This seems like someone pushing an agenda.
Agreed that game rating is increasingly about site hits and creating controversy. It really seems to be getting worse. I've said it before but maybe Metacritic should throw out the top and bottom scores. Give links but not post the actual text? Ikd. I can understand a gut reaction but love and hate shouldn't be involved in what's supposed to be a professional exercise.
