EDIT: Forza is still the king of 7th gen racing! (according to Metacritic)

I'll be honest, I have no desire to shit on GT6 and I look forward to playing it. I already have it on hold at Redbox...

But this ultimately means Forza 5 will get shit on less. That makes me happy!

How does a last gen game getting reviewed lower than a current gen game help it get "shit on less."  Especially considering they are only 2 points apart...

Fanboy logic at play here. Basically they can't bash Forza 5 for not hitting the tradional 90+ meta when the last 2 entrys of their own IP scored lower the the latest Forza. And while only a few points difference, one is in the 70's and one is in the 80's. Two different quality brackets, even if one is high 70's and the other low 80's.....might as well be a 70 and 89 and would still be considered the same :P

Except that's not what's happening. The logic is that: GT6 is being nitpicked as a last gen PS3 game and Forza 5 gets a free pass despite the lower amount of content because it's on a next gen console.

The 2 point difference thing happened like 10 minutes ago - GT6 was at 75 all morning.
