Oh no! Batman Arkham Knight major bomb, has dropped to 89 metacritic. 
| torok said: I think metacritic should be unified, using the average between the corresponding averages for each platform as criteria. That would create a situation where a bad port/version would impact significantly the score of a game. |
There are pros and cons to that, especially where technical issues on one platform that are not present on any other is droping the scores. However on balance I agree, one reviewscore across all platforms. And if one platform is notably worse than the others then the drop in metascore is deserved and may slightly incentivise putting out decent versions on all platforms.
