I do understand some frustration though. Literally 95% of the reviews are saying its the best Halo game ever made even over the first 1 and yet its actually the lowest main Halo in Metacritic. Its a little frustrating and actually a great demonstration as to why review scores dont actually work. Maybe we should have all reviewers following Gamersyde. Just give us a review with a final verdict and no score. Then the journalism will ave to be better. |
I agree with this. People put way too much importance on numerical scores. While especially true with video games, you even see this taking place with movies (just look at rottentomatoes and some of the comments when a negative review comes out). Personally, my criteria for a good game is whether it makes me want to keep playing it (pretty simple but that's all that matters to me).
