So you could make a game with broken multiplayer and 1 hour of singleplayer content, put in on Vita (or any other platform if it doesn't matter), sell it for $50 and still get a 2/5 ? |
Does the price really bring it down a whole 20% or 40% though? The verdict could easily have been, wait until this one is under $20 sticker price.
And of course they wouldn't review it, it wouldn't give them enough exposure and ad views. It's just a hypothetical. I agree that the difference between 6/10 and 8/10 is subjective. But 1/5 should be reserved for games that cannot provide their core gameplay.
I'm not defending Vita or its games. To me it looks pretty dead and this is a huge screwup. But I believe the 1/5 is more for shock value than a genuine reflection of the review content.
