PC should only count if it gets the required amount of reviews. Dead Island has not. It only has 11 PC reviews.



Around the Network

I think keeping this consistent is most important, so unless there is a good way to fix this I think the pc version should count waiting till 2/3 weeks after release.

Taking pc out altogether isn't fair for games where pc was always to be the superior version (BF3, Rage). Averaging as Boutros suggests could be bad for this same reason as BF3 PC to BF3 Console could have a 5 point difference for all we know while people would have been predicting for BF3 PC's score.

I'm telling myself I'm not biased in this while my points are at stake, though who knows if my brain can be trusted :)



Ok after reading your comments how about this.

I agree with Jay's point, PC version has only 11 reviews, I don't think this should count. So ..

If the PC version is the highest scoring and has a similar amount of reviews as the PS360 version, it counts? If it doesn't (in the case of Dead Island, the highest console version counts.

Then a threshold of 25 reviews or so which must be breached within the update period. I think 25 is quite a few for pc.

Or you could require 2/3 or so of the amount of reviews the PS3 version has (which is the lowest console amount in most cases).

Update day!!

I will likely leave Gears 3 out unless it gets to 45/50 in the next few hours (which is unlikely) and I will be going with Deus Ex as the PC has very few scores.



 




 

I will upload the updated prediction templates with bolded correct scores so you can check and see if I've made any mistakes (don't think I have!)

Deus Ex, Dead Island, Resistance and GOW Collection were counted, I'll leave ICO and Gears till the next update.



 

40th place!

I did pretty bad, until Ico comes along. So basically I underestimated Deus Ex, and overestimated Resistance 3. I should have voted using my heart instead of voting logically.

Because my heart knew that Deus Ex would be an awesome game, but I thought reviews might not like it, and I knew resistance will be alright game, but I thought reviews were going to like it.
