We are really seeing a troubling distortion of the review process.

If reviewers are going to be so up in arms with this then every fallout game, ME, Dragon Age, elder scrolls should rake in 95+ for bang for the buck.

Any game with online focus and decent gameplay should score 95+ as the game can live for months if not years.

I dont think anyone dragging down the review scores based on a price to time ratio has articulated the point well enough to warrant any real concern but its an easy headline to fixate on and its a slippery slope.

Once there is public perception these "review" sights latch on to drive a narrative. In one breath theyre criticizing the games length and price point and then divulge when played in its entirety IE side missions, stealth vs rambo mode, obtaining better ranks the game eats up 8+ hours but ohhhhh the headlines, too juicy to pass up.
