Forums - Sony - Is this a joke? Dishonored metacritic user reviews, hacked?

I thought it was because of that Russian cult?



Around the Network

It's a bunch of Russians that hack the user scores on PS3 games because it's practically a 'meme' to hate on Sony over there. They're kind of permanently stuck in 2006 and like to superimpose a distorted image of Drake's face from UC2's multiplayer on various images as a running gag. They've been doing this to metacritic for a while over the last few months, they even managed to alter the critic scores at one point. Pay no attention to them, I'd know , my daddy works for the internet.

What the hell? I dislike Bethesda as much as the next PS3 guy and I even admit that Bethesda treating us all like trash is one factor why I'm not getting the game now but mostly because I buy few new games unless it's must have. For a supposed short game like this I won't go over 30 bucks maybe 40 but I doubt it. However if I did have the game I'm sure I would enjoy it. The PS3 version was compared to the xbox version and matches up flawlessly, maybe even looks better, I can't really tell any difference. So are all these PS3 consumers really trashing this game even though the studio has nothing to do with Bethesda besides them publishing and I think owning them. It's disgusting. I know most of these people have never even played the damn game.

 

I can't understand though. No way people are this stupid. It may be hacked.

What do you all think?


It's obviously hacked just look at the spread of positive, neutral, and negative scores.  There are only 4 negative ones compared to 24 positive ones.  Some sort of mistake with the site or a hacker caused that average because it makes no sense looking at the scores.

LOL you are so right dude!

whoever only uses Metacritic to determine how good a game is doesn't deserve to play good games anyway

I like to use Metacritic to look for reviews with differing opinions to get a good picture on how people grade a games' strengths and weaknesses, but not for that shitty aggregate score.



User scores should never be allowed.

But I think its because of sensitivity issues with getting Skyrim DLC super late. Like downvoting on metacritic is gonna get your Skyrim DLC any faster......



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles. 

 

Dude, see the user reviews of Ocarina of friggin' Time. That's how seriously you should take Metacritic users.

No... 360 games got the same treatments

This is why next generation Sony cant afford to make a console that's a bitch to programme for. It lengthens development and makes playtesting a nightmare.

Instead of throwing all there anger at Bethesda throw some at Sony to. Bethesda isn't the only developer to make a bad PS3 game technically. A lot seem to have issues.

But yeah these fans suck so much it makes gaming look terrible.


You clearly have no idea whats going on. The 0.5 score on Meta is not made by fans but by a cult Russian group that hates Sony. They often spout bullshit like "ansha abdul", I made a thread on GAF about it: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=489823

 

I don't wanna critcize you, but it shouldve been very obvious dude. PC360 100-300 ratings, PS3: +2000 ratings
