the only remasters that are on PS4 that aren't on XB1 are TLOU and.. well that's it cause GOW and Uncharted collection aren't out yet. You would have more credibility to your argument if there weren't so many more games (more likely good of crap) on PS4.

Flower, Fez, Bastion, Diablo III: Ultimate Edition (same game, 4 point difference in favour of PS4), Shovel Knight (5 point difference in favour of PS4 despite being the same game), The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth.

Upcoming: Journey, GoW3: R, Uncharted Collection.

Seems like someone forgot the overrated indie games.

You can't possibly take metacritic serious, it's so flawed and biased. It's owned by the same company as Gamespot and they work with weighted averages (which simply means Gamespot's reviews count A LOT more).

The real average of Yoshi's Woolly World is 82%, but because of Gamespot's shitty review it's down to 79%. And we all know GS gives just about every Nintendo game a 6 out of 10.

Well your use of the word 'overratted' shows that your argument is opinionated. The top 2 of the 3 scores on Gamespots Metacritic page are Nintendo games.. Ocarina of time is sitting there aswell in the perfect score category. http://www.metacritic.com/publication/gamespot.

The biggest point here is that there are 80 more games to be counted into PS4's metacritic meaning there are more aweful games that would be factored in, and there are more reviews on the multiplat version of PS4's meaning the score could be higher or lower (probably average out to equal overal) to the xbox version.

You can downplay all you want but don't go to a Metacritic thread then bolster about how irrelevant Metacritic is when Nintendo use Metacritic for advertising campaigns. 

The fact here is that the PS4 has a higher average score of games playable on the console than the other 2 home consoles of the 8th gen. It's not by much it's only 4% nothing to get upset about.
