Logic ? What logic, I'm talking about their tradition, history. They are pro MS.

That if they don't give the score you agree with , then they are anti sony? You cannot expect all reviewers to share teh same tase as you ro other gamers on  sony platform, MS platform and even nintendon platform.  There will always be people who prefer xbox games more, nintendo games more or even sony games more. Also every game is reviewed by someone else, therefore the scores will be  different and the way they reviewe will also be differerent. They have given lots of good scores for sony games as welll. Just taht this generation the games to them is not that great . nothing wrong with that . 

I'll try to find the thread but I believe that a while back (several years) someone did a metascore of eurogamer scores and there was like a persistent 20 point difference between ps3 and 360 games. And was always above the metacritic average on 360 and below on ps3.

ie: if the metacritic of a 360 game was 80, i believe they would give a 86-91. The calculations showed consistent 5-10 point above average scores.
and if the ps3 game was 80, the calculations showed an 20~ ish point under rating.

I guess until I find the thead though, this is all heresay, but it was done using calculations from the top 50 games and review score vs meta. Basically a trend of rating 360 games 30 points higher. However, games that tended to be reviewed by mainland europe would rate the ps games better, while uk would rate badly.

Kudos to that person for having the patience in doing that for us lol. Don't forget the ps3 game especially multiplats , was worse technically then xbx 360 counterparts. As a result, it would get a lower score. Didn't ps3 also have more games overall?  I do remember alot o the ones were pretty bad and mediocre and as a result got a lowere score. That could explain the difference. I do remember eurogamer giving all the unchartered games high scores. they loved he gamePeople thinking its a conspiracy against sony are truly nuts. it just happens that the person reviewing wasn't imporessed about the game. hes not paid to give a scorethat fans of the platform right?
