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).

Mid generation when there are a lot of games out there the user reviews should stabalize. the fan war is at a high point early on so fan boys and girls are hard at work trolling. When unaffected by fanboy voting I agree that the user scores are usually a better indication of the game's value than the official reviews. It's accumulated by a much larger number of people than the amount of review sitees that count to the metric. and those people spent honest time with the game were as guys who do reviews for a living look at it more as a job than recreation and they get the games for free so they don't really care about putting all that much into enjoying the  games.

Agree with you... but don't you think that right now we have some bogus official review with scores too low (like Knack and possibly Ryse) and others too high (like DR3 buggyfest and KI still incomplete)??? And if you sum it average with users average and average the result you may have a closer to reality number???

For me Metacritic is more valuable as a shittometer... bellow 50 don't touch, between 50-70 niche, 70-85 good, 85-90 gorgeous 90+ must buy. Don't give them much credit for the exact number (to much biased sites still allowed, and some serious magazine really obscure score system).
