how can DMC devil may cry have a higher metacritic score than 4 on new gen? is Metacritic biased towards Japan?

Because DMC is way better than dmc4

no it isnt. The fans, first reviews, sales have spoken. 

The reviews have spoken again though, and the hate from fans is only due to the changes on the saga, they transformed a stupid character with a stupid storyline that takes itself way too seriously to a stupid character with a stupid storyline that does not take itself seriously at all, and they gave it a WAY better gameplay, but people cares more about the story in a hack and slash game (even when they are usually terrible) for reasons that are completely beyond me.
