Eurogamer drops review scores, withdraws from Metacritic

We will avoid updating reviews

Regularly updated reviews might seem like the answer to changing circumstances (and changing games), but we don't believe they're helpful to readers. So we will avoid updating our reviews unless there are extraordinary circumstances. We will always seek to publish the most authoritative review we can to begin with - delaying it if need be - and include reasonable assumptions about the future development of the game in our assessment. If a game changes radically enough over time, we're more likely to consider a full re-review than an update.

I really like most of what was said in the article.  But I don't get this.  Why are updates to reviews not helpful for the reader?  That doesn't make any sense and it is not explained.  It will be interesting to see how many games actually get a full re-review in this system.
