Actually I didn't say anywhere that we should invalidate comparisons between  two scores from one site, I just happen to believe that an aggregate of a far wider range of opinions is a far better yardstick for game quality, a belief that is only supported when the main example you used for PS3 superiority had different reviewers.

Do I "know" how this game will trend?  No.  Can I make a reasonable and likely prediction?  Yes.  Do you honestly think that after 30/40 reviews this game will be higher than it is now?

As for the final point that you tried to invalidate by pre-empting my bringing it up?  I was going to demonstrate why it is perfectly relevant to this debate until I realised that Gobias and Windbane, in their usual rush to try (and fail) to discredit me, have in fact simply rebutted you.

At the end of the day, the poor and tremendously subjective "analysis" that you're seeking can be found in the thread title, not in my first post.

Bolded: No you don't know how this game will trend, but you claimed that you did in the first post. Can you make a reasonable prediction? No you can't. Not based off of twelve reviews. Ideally you need a minimum of thirty reviews before you can start analysing the trend. If the next four reviews gave it 9/10, that pushes up the average to 77. The average score can quickly change with so few reviews. 

Do I honestly think that after 30/40 reviews that the score for his game will be higher than it is now? Well, I don't know, it is too early to tell.

OF course you can make a reasonable prediction off 12 reviews.  Metacritic claims you can gain a reasonable aggregate off of just 5 reviews.  What makes you say thirty reviews should be the standard?  For a ported, late-comer game like this, there isn't much chance of it getting much more than thirty reviews.  Thirty reviews won't be the trend, it will be the end.

Please don't start being ridiculous.  Do you actually think this title will get ninety per cent from its next four reviews?  Don't be a fence-sitter, make a prediction.  Do you think this game will trend upwards substantially enough that it will overtake its Xbox 360 counterpart?

 

it already has according to the reviewers,,,they say the game has everything the 360 lacked ,,on top of that all of the DLC for the 360 is also included standard in the disk.

A number doesn't change the fact that the game has improved/enhanced for the PS3.don't believe it?read the review of this game on that garbage website called Edge.they clearly state that it's infact better than 360 version as it adds stuff thatb the 360 lacks (not DLC ,,casue those are also included)

 

anyways I don't care for this game so arguing over it is just waste of time.
