Is it? The Dreamcast games were low-mid 80s (and mainline titles) and I always hear how people loved them (as they should, they're fantastic games). I think last gen (and SFIV) have left this false impression of what games scores mean. |
It is in my eyes. Much like Halo 5 getting a Metacritic of 84. Games like the original Halo, Metal Gear Solid, Ocarina of time, Super Mario 64, Goldeneye, Gran Turismo 3, Street Fighter 2 etc were all ground breaking games and still resonate and play well to this day. To see their follow ups get in the low-to-mid 80s is a disappointment especially when such flaws are very evident(Halo 5's extremely short campaign for example). I know it is hard to innovate and make even better sequels to excellent games, but such a drop as we see here is disappointing.. In my opinion. Street Fighter IV may have been an anomaly but at least it was a complete game....
