I'm not here to defend Stevivor or any of their reviews. I'm saying, ignore the damn reviews you don't agree with. I'm sure if I did some real research, I could find a reviewer(s) that gives most PS games all 9-10 and most Xbox games 6-8 scores. Getting upset over 1 reviewer giving scores less than the average is not worth getting upset over. Also, not every score is weighted the same. An indie game that scores a 9 and a AAA titles like GoT can score 8.5, but that doesn't mean the indie game is better. The only Xbox title that scored certainly higher marks than it deserved was Bleeding Edge from the list you gave. This comparison list is also missing some notable games from both Xbox and PS: Spider-man 9.5/10 Basically, the comparison list you showed is nitpicked and if included every Xbox/PS game, it defeats the narrative that's been created. |
It isn't ignoring reviews we don't agree, it is reviews that aren't professional. Sure there are reviewers that are biased against Xbox, and they shouldn't be included in metacritic as well. Stevivor also gone on and on complaining Sony blacklisted him and doesn't send him free codes for review anymore. From the list you agree with SoD2 score then?
Ok, let's see the deviation for the titles you brought
For MS
Sea of Thieves meta 69, so he is 29 below
Crackdown 3 meta 60, so he is 20 below
Battletoads meta 72, 17 below
Killer Instinct meta 73, 2 above3
GoW 4 meta 84, 4 below
For Sony
SM 87, 8 above
SM:MM 85, 10 above
UC4 93, 2 above (since he doesn't give 0.1 scores, this is basically tie)
HZD:FW 83, 7 above
ISS 80, tie
SoC 91, 6 below
So for me even with the inclusions it seems to still be more in favor to Xbox. And on twitter seems like all the suggestions when on his profile is related to Xbox.
