This article happened. I saw it here myself on VGC. But thats not the full story. The article was about which reviewers were biased towards what console. Edge, statistically speaking, had a huge tendency to give 360 games higher scores, especially shooters and Halo games in general. While on the other hand, I think they concluded IGN was a tad more lenient towards the PS3. But at the end, the graph presented showed the statistical bias of Edge towards the 360 was significantly greater than IGN bias towards the PS3. |
Good, I'm glad someone else remembers it :)
It's kind of hard to find with searches. I think I saw it on Kotaku or Gamasutra? Anyway, no offence Jarrod, but I already just wasted half an hour looking for it so I'm done. The data Dallinor posted is basically exactly what you would get in the article anyway, without pretty graphs. He basically listed all the highly rated (80+) exclusive games on each system, so you can at least get the stats for how Edge rates highly rated games for that, even if you think including other games would make a big difference. (It's actually pretty much without exception highly rated games people complain and care about anyway, so it seems like a pretty complete set of data to me. If you really care about that, though, you should get all the games between 50 and 80 and add them to the list, or something like that.)
