You don't really believe this right? I can already tell you now that Bloodborne and Uncharted 4 will get 90%+ on metacritic.

I guess metacritic scores will be relevant then again? ;)

At least Nintendo doesn't release broken games that still get 80%+ on metacritic (like some third parties). And how did Halo: MCC get 87% on metacritic? It's still not working properly!

(I know you were talking to someone else, but wanted to comment)

No, I will never respect Metacritic's rankings until they, at the very least, adopt the actual definition of below average (under 50), average (50), above average (50+).  The fact that so many gaming sites, and gamers have accepted their idiot math I find quite depressing.

Actually that's the fault of gaming sites for rating games so highly. Metacritic uses a different defintion for movies because movie critics are usually less lenient than their video game counterparts.
