I don't think it's indicative of a problem with the new Kinect, apparently the Kinect Sports Rivals demo has seen much better reception, so it seems to me that Ubisoft just made a crappy game. Ironically, the user score for the Fighter Within is higher than the critic score despite Playstation fanboys that have been going around downvoting every Xbox One game on Metacritic.

Hate to break it to you....it works both ways.

Yes, but there are clearly more PS4 fanboys giving bad reviews than there are Xbox One fanboys giving good reviews, the user averages are considerably lower for Xbox One games than PS4 games.

Proof?

 

Maybe people just were disappointed in the games... Unless you have proof.......

Multiplatform Comparison

FIFA 14 PS4- 6.3, XBO- 5.9

NBA 2K14 PS4- 7.1 XBO- 6.1

NFS Rivals PS4- 7.2 XBO- 6.2

AC IV PS4- 7.9 XBO- 7.2

 

Exclusives

Forza 5 Critic- 8.2 User- 4.8

Dead Rising 3 Critic- 7.8 User- 5.6

Zoo Tycoon Critic- 6.8 User- 4.3

Knack Critic- 5.6 User- 6.7

Killzone Critic- Critic 7.4 User- 7.4

 

The proof is right there, there are more PS fanboys downvoting Xbox One games than there are Xbox One fanboys upvoting them, and yet Fighter Within has a higher user score than a critic score, that's not to say that it's not a bad game, because it probably is, I just found it ironic.

Maybe because there is less people interested in Xbone?

That's exactly my point, there are more people interested in the PS4 and assuming that the percentage of fanboys is the same for both platforms, a larger number of people interested in the PS4 means more total fanboys, and since a large number of fanboys downvote games on other platforms, that would account for the scores being lower on Xbox One games. I'm not here to say that the Fighter Within is a good game and that the user score being higher than the critic score is legitimate, because it's probably not, all I said was that the user score being higher than the critic score is ironic, becuase for most games it's the other way around.

That is the good part of fanboy review... you pick the average of the inflated official reviews (it usually is for all plats because of adds) with the downeated fanboys review and have a more real one =] ... and for PS4 games I'm more aligned with users review score than official, even if solely because of Knack that looks and play much better than sub-60 (if it was a Ninty game on WiiU it would have a better score).
