you still buy games based on metac.?
piece of advice... you shouldn't...


If I am not sure wheter to buy a game or not. I download the demo if available, if not I rent it and watch the IGN and Gamespot reviews. And then I decide. I did with plenty of games (Uncharted Drakes Fortune, The Witcher 2, Max Payne 3 etc.) always worked for me. 

But just out of curiosity why not?

in the OP, you say you wont buy move and this game because of the metac. score...

now you don't use metac. and research about the games you are interested... make up you mind...

if i was wrong, was caused by your OP...

But in thi case I cant rent the game nor download the demo because I have no PS Move, so look up the Metascore. If the score is high I buy it, if not then not.

in your case... i would choose one review that i trust and read the text, it says more than the number in the end (and loads more than the metac score). if i did realize, this is a game i would like and enjoy playing, i would search for other games that i would also enjoy playing with move... if those together were worth the investment and if i could afford it. i would do it. if any of these conditions did not come as true. no buy for me. one game is not worth the investment. 2,3 or 4 might be. i would recommend Resident Evil 5 gold edition, cheap and better to play with move instead of DS3, Sports Champions if you don't have a wii. inFamous 2 has a very cool control method with move... will not say its better than DS3 but its very well made. Killzone, MAG, Soccom and Resistance 3 have similar control methods that are cool to use.

there are rail shooters, sports games and others but i can't comment on those. EDIT: also lots of small and cheap games on PSN that might be worth having in your game collection...

IMO there are many reasons to invest but i understand others might not see it... if you didn't bought one yet, you might be one of those persons. Sorcery, even if it was a +90 metac with lots of perfect scores wouldn't be alone worth the investment IMO.
