in Data Management, it's acceptable to toss out scores like this due to it being an anomaly. If it doesn't fit in with the majority and is WAY out of line of the norm, it's ignored.
Metacritic should do this.
The 80 was a little out of range (since ALL the other reviews up to that point were 90+), but it was believable. Well at least it would be if that same site hadn't given Uncharted 2 a 10. A game that's 'better' than its predecessor for all the same reasons should not be marked lower. End of discussion.
I hate critics sometimes, and I AM one.
I'd love to see the world go wild if I ever professionally posted my 21/100 score for Final Fantasy XIII. heads would roll, that's for sure.
