I thought Metacritic adds ALL reviews that are published...

Here is a fine review of Demon Gaze published by PSU:

And here is the Metacritic page i see on my pc:

i'm actually surprised it's reviewing so well, could it be that reviewers are now gonna start reviewing games for what they are????? oh how revolutionary of them

Retailers loves leaking Aksys games. This time it's Amazon leaking Arcana Heart 3: Love Max.

That misses the awesome Polygon review giving it 4/10 calling it sexist trash XD

What review did you mention?



"We'll toss the dice however they fall,
And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

I did an analysis of sites that review Vita games and got the following results. I chose the 22 games I thought were probably the most widely reviewed thus far and the 9 websites that seemed to review Vita games the most consistently.

 

Title Metascore CCC Dtoid Euro GI GS GR IGN Play UK Pocket Gamer UK
Assassin's Creed 3: Liberation 70 96 80 70 78 65 60 72 76 70

Ys: Memories of Celceta 82 90 95 80 85 85 N/A 75 N/A 80
Average 76 82.4 75.9 72.9 75.9 72.7 72 76.5 76.3 75.9

 

What this basically boils down to is:

  • Cheat Code Central is the biggest lot of Vita fanboys of the major review websites, with scores about 5 points on average above the Metascore and 7 games with exceptionally positive reviews (10+ points above the Metascore).
  • Many of the reviewers here are actually fairly average Vita reviewers. IGN, Play UK, Destructoid, Game Informer, and Pocket Gamer UK are all within half a point of the Metascore average. Destructoid is the odd man out here, since about half of its reviews are either significantly above or below average.
  • The biggest Vita haters seem to be Eurogamer, Gamespot, and Gamesradar.

 

Compared to the 3DS info here:

  • Cheat Code Central is biased in favor of Vita games over 3DS games by the widest margin: about 4.5 Metascore points
  • Destructoid and GameSpot also show a Vita bias, albeit less so
  • Although none of these sites are AS biased in favor of the 3DS as CCC is for the Vita, Eurogamer, Pocket Gamer UK, IGN, Game Informer, and especially Gamesradar are biased for the 3DS over the Vita.
  • When you throw all the numbers at each other, 3DS games get a bonus 0.7/100 points from these nine websites. However, no one website is particularly close to being evenly balanced.

 

I know that this info doesn't help compare Vita reviews to console game reviews, but I think it's interesting how even websites devoted to no platform in particular seem to favor the 3DS, albeit by an average of under 1 point on Metacritic.

 

Just thought some of you guys would be interested! Any tips before I turn this into a multiplatform masterpiece?

I just cut the review page to show the reviews range from 80% to 90% to show that the mid 85% given by PSU, isnt listed. Ofc there are lower reviews but that wasnt the point of my post :)

Which is why I was asking. I didn't see any review calling it sexist trash.

Salnax and his graph attack!!!!! XD nice work there. interesting to see. you're gonna do this for all platforms?

I see you are doing this from a platform point of view, I'd like to see a niche games focused one, though that might be hard since a lot of titles barely get reviews. it just seems a lot of those scores diverge immensely when it comes to that kind of title. i guess they are games you either love or hate i guess. that's one of the reasons i was surprised at the scores for demons gaze... i'm usually happy if an atelier game would get anything over 70.

Jesus Christ.  Aksys need to stop telling Amazon anything.  Isn't this the third game in a row that they've leaked?
