And keep in mind metacritic doesnt even allow japanese reviewers into their score, so they dont even have any kind of support from home like western games have, in fact almost all of metacritic score are western reviewers


It does. The reviews have to be in English, but that doesn't means they aren't allowed to. Also, it's not like the Japanese would rank Japanese games higher just because. That disqualifies them as reviewers... so it's nonsense...

Also, yes... PS2, Wii... they were both casual kings and that's the problem with the Xbox brand. People always see it as hardcore, not casual, and they can't shake that reputation without being both, so they are doubly handicapped...

Except that a lot of reviews have only a shortcut written in english but the main site or the article are in italian, czech and other western languages i have seen a lot of times.

They arent allowed it looks to me, by the size of Japans gaming market it should be like a lot bigger. And if a japanese game gets released in the west there should allready be a review up from famitsu, 4gamer Because its allready out in japan. Anyways my point simple is that metacrtic is a very fishy organisation owned by gamspot
