I guess...they're both pretty bad though.  It's why I don't see metacritic scores (or journalism scores in general) as anything more than superficial numbers that fan bases use to parade over others.  I mean, they're nice to see as a novelty and when they conform to your opinions but in the grand scheme of things, they shouldn't count for anything considering the sad state games journalism is in.

You are absolutely right! Couldn't have said it better. Still, there are some reviews that I can't stop facepalming over, mostly from western reviewers. And that's what led me to my original post.
