| WagnerPaiva said: Makes sense, I guess the really really bad games are very obvious, but I do think a lot of gems get beated by the crowd mentality or something worst, like THE FIGHT: LIGHTS OUT, which is much better than the average metacritic say it is or any Call of Duty, which is much worst. But I stand corrected then. In that case, I will change my answer: the PS4 will have the highest ratings. |
I definitely agree with you in that respect. I don't think it's an issue relating to corruption and the like, but rather that most "gaming journalists" are really just normal gamers. Like most gamers they tend to look more favorable on series they know they enjoy or titles they're particularly hyped for, and can likewise be overly critical on others.
It's also worth remembering that the best thing about Metacritic (its weighted averaging of lots of reviews) is also the worst. If a game is great to a niche market, but seen as bad by the mainstream, it's doomed to get a bad score. Weighted averages aren't kind on products aimed at specific market groups.
Still, this thread is just for fun ^^ Metacritic isn't perfect, but it's the most subjective method of comparing libraries. Like i said in the OT though, which library is best to an individual person will depend on their own preferences and experiences. You aren't going to change their mind with numbers.
