PSABR has scored consistently low scores based on gaming review system and there is a concensus on it's quality, not just a few crazy people who's reviews have been torn to shreds with good arguments. Of course you can still say fuck metacritic, like we all can. However you're fucking it for very different reasons which would be "fuck all reviewers". Halo 4 fans have said, "fuck bad reviews" If your opinion is "fuck all reviews that have consistently scored the game rather low" then by all means say it, but there's no need to reference Halo 4 in that sweeping statement, because it's an insult to the Halo 4 fans who had very valid concerns with the few bad reviews. If Halo 4 had scored 70-80s across the board with a couple of 90s, well that would be different and I wouldn't be making this post. |
"Consistently low scores"? Did we see a different Metacritic page? There scores are all over the map. There are more 90s than 60s. How is that consistently low? I don't understand what you're saying, except perhaps that only a game that YOU like can the the victim of unfair reviews. One of the reviewers for All-Stars even calls it "borderline offensive" for coping Nintendo; how does that not qualify as some degree of preconceived bias? People were going absolutely insane over iron-sights but "borderline offense" is an objective response?
I don't get why people only think the games on the systems they favor can be judged unfairly. It makes no sense to me. That kind of willful blindness really bothers me.
I just read the joystiq review (4/5 stars) which was quite positive but then I made the mistake of reading the user comments. Same old crap, people upset that a reviewer can praise the game, upset it's not a compare-and-contrast article about Smash Brothers. It's getting really old.
