| Barkley said: Hmmm the last 10 PlayStation exclusive (or console-exclusive) games reviewed by Edge... God of War : Meta - 95 Edge - 80 Every single one lower, except one that was equal. Average of 12.9 points lower. Yeah I'm beginning to see a pattern here. xD
Edit: Oh I missed Dissidia. Which surprise surprise they rated 5/10 compared to the metascore of 67. |
I'd agree with Edge. Sometimes you find a very impressive game gets stellar reviews but when you start playing it after a short while the shine wears off a bit. Edge seems to adjust for that but many review sites just go with the initial hype for the game. Other games sometimes have the opposite effect where the hype has overblown the game and it hasn't met people's expectations due to all the hype and reviewers punish the game for that reason but the actual game can still be pretty good with lots of things to enjoy just not the awesome title people expected and again I think Edge often adjust for that too.
That's my take on it but whatever I tend to find I agree with Edge reviews when I play the game.
