I'm a little baffled at critics praising LBP Vita as the best yet, yet it's scoring worse than LBP2. You'd think a handheld game that is supposedly better than its console iteration would be granted some degree of leniency in the scoring.

People hate handhelds.  Seriously, I see games that are better on the handhelds but get lower scores (Disgaea 3), and others that get flat out slammed that are actually pretty good just becuase it's on a handheld (Resistance.)

So add .5 to the score, it rounds up to about where LBP1 was :P

Have you noticed in reviews that every game on Vita is compared to that or similar game on PS3, while every 3DS game is compared to DS game. That's kinda unfair. Even though SONY did say that PS Vita offers home console like experiance, but this is still not a home console.

We have ModNation Racers on Vita which is the better game than the same game on PSP, and yet it has lower Metacritic score.

We have LBP Vita which is by far superior game than any LBP installment so far, but in end it will have lower Matacritic score than PSP game (87) or LBP2 on PS3.

And there's still Gravity Rush that got 7 on IGN and 6,5 on Game Stop.

 

Speaking of Resistance, I do own the 3 PS3 games... but I never considered them to be something more than an everage shooter. Killzone is more my cup of tea.
