It's also because since late 2011, sites have not dished out that high scores therefore the entire scale of weight must've shifted somewhat. Getting a 10 from like 15 outlets now hasn't happend in almost 1 and a half year. The weight is related to how often site give scores somehow. It's been over a year since Skyrim or Batman AC was the last game to recieve that high critical acclaim. The walking dead got few reviews and it wasnt until the whole collection was out until it got into its 90s. Journey also hit around 92. |
Very true, games do seem to be judged more harshly these days...the only retail game to score over 90 in the past year pretty much is Fire Emblem, and it's not because of a low number of great games.
