Firstly, standards don't always stay the same through out a generation. An 8/10 in 2008 isn't necessarily the same as an 8/10 in 2013. Secondly, DMC4 scored worse, not better. Here are the meta pages:

84/84 vs 85/86. When you consider variance that's functionally the same, but still counter to what you're claiming.

Yeah but metacritic doesnt include japanese or asian reviers in their score, its a highly biased prefernce from the start from a site who claims representing the whole world. Its only western reviewers who are allowed and from them the majority are anglo-american sites. I havent even seen a german site on metacritic |
When has metacritic ever claimed to represent the views of the entire world? The site is primarily visited by western gamers, thus it is logical it would strive to aggregate the views of western critics. Including reviews from countries that rarely visit the site would just make it less accurate for everyone that does. That would be pretty silly.
