Games with unfair Metascore

[Doctor_MG]

Metroid Other M: Look, the story is awful, but some of the gameplay features like grabbing, dodging, countering...all of that made Samus feel very bad ass and bled its way into Metroid Dread. Sure it isn't deserving of the 90's, but give it five points up for the graphics (amazing for the Wii) and gameplay. Though I will say the first person thing was a bad idea and they should have let you use an analog stick.

Luigis Mansion 1: I don't really understand what critic's problems were with this game, especially since it's sequels faired way better. It's such a cult classic and a 78 was far too low for a game with such incredible graphics and fun puzzles/gameplay.

Sunset Overdrive: This game is what helped Insomniac create Spiderman. The movement and way that you get around in the game is just a blast. Grinding around, bouncing off of things, running off of walls...it's just so fun. So much so that, when I finally got a PS4 and play Second Son, I just couldn't stop thinking how Sony should use Insomniac to make an Infamous game. I kind of got my wish on that one lol.

Shadow of the Colossus: I know that this game is rated a 91, which is great...but this game is absolutely one of my favorites ever since I played the remake on PS4. It's just an incredible experience. Though it's a one and done game for me personally, the boss battles are just incredible, the music is fantastic, and the story is given in such a great way.

Games that have higher scores than I personally think that they should:

LittleBigPlanet (all of them). Their platforming is just awful and the run really poorly on the PS3. I beat all of them with my girlfriend and was astonished that the first two had meta scores in the 90's. I like the games, but not that much.

Journey: I played this one and beat it...probably the most boring experience I've had in a video game that was so beloved. I'm sorry to those who love this game...but I just don't get the praise.

Flight Simulator: Speaking of boring...I don't think I need to explain this one. It just isn't for me.
