Gotta agree with Volterra on this one. The Rotten Tomatoes/OpenCritic formula is fundamentally flawed (How's that for alliteration?).
A game that got a "fresh rating" of 70 across the board would be a 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. But all that means is all critics gave the game a lukewarm reception. Aggregate scoring sites like Metacritic are flawed, but they're worlds better than sites like RT. Lumping all media into either "fresh" or "rotten" based on an arbitrary cut-off? It doesn't capture the full picture.
