Offcourse many would disagree when their one perosnal favourite game gets a lower score then they wanted, but that is another matter. I said before, the system ain't perfect, but its the closest anybody can get to seeing what every reviewer on the internet thinks at once. But let us be honest, we all tend to fall into the same predictable pattern.....we praise metacritic for when our favourite games score amazing, and lament it for when it doesn't. We have to clean up own own personal broken standards before we criticize metacritics. |
Speak for yourself. I certainly do not. I think it's a horrible system and always have. They're taking scores from websites that give perfect scores like candy, combining them with websites that grade harshly, and it's supposed to mean something? Listen, if that works for you, go ahead with it. I would rather read the reviews.
