Ok... but I dont see the problem with that? We're not doing science here. Ita just for discussion. If people are getting hung up on technicalities thats kind of on them.

People are too subjectively driven, so if you want concrete answers, you have to think ahead and make sure you plan for it. This thread ended up solving nothing. I mean, someone mentioned Sonic the Hedgehog, for crying out loud. EGM gave it literal 9's across the board (and one reviewer scored it above SMW). It, and it's three successors were titanic, industry-changing phenomena. If  that doesn't defeat the purpose of his thread, I don't know what does.

What was this thread supposed to solve? How has the purpose been defeated? Do we get paid if we get the "right" answers? And honestly if we just wanted to look for the biggest jump in metascore we dont need to discuss that at all, we could just look it up. So if thats what your looking for have at it.

If you want to debate whether Sonic was a poor game (and honestly I'm inclined to say it was despite what EGM said in the 90s) go for it. Alternatively, if you want to just think "huh thats weird" and move on you can.

OP isnt responsible for micromanaging the conversation. If the "well actually" crowd wants to be nitpicky and argumentative, thats their choice. People are going to be themselves whatever OP does. 

Point is we're all in this thread and we all have equal voice in how it goes. So, how do you want it proceed? Do you want to go back and forth about how the OP should have phrased it? We could do that. Do you want to scold other people about the definition of poor? Also an option.

My advice though is to think about what you'd like to discuss here and discuss it. 

On that note, I'm going to throw in Legacy of Goku 2. The first was borderline unplayable shovelware. The second was still clunky but charming and a pretty damn good DBZ experience given the limitations of the machine it was on. Honestly would still rather play it than DBZ Kakarot.
