smroadkill15 said: There is absolutely no reason to give this game a higher review score on ps3 just because it has a few extra missions. In the review just include that the ps3 version has slightly more content. The only case a game should have a lower score is if the game is considerable worse on the other platform, which I highly doubt is the case. OT: I predict 88-90 meta. Usually when a game has a lower or higher score for a different platform it's: A. Different number of scores will change the average. B. Review sites for dedicted platforms will be different. |
the 360 version wouldn't get a lower score as it would get without a bigger ps3 version, the 360 version would get the score it deserves and vice versa. a reviewer should always test the game as if it would be unique and wouldn't run on different systems to decide which score it deserves. the scores would be always fair then (as much as the own opinion in a review is fair).
if you review two absolutely different games and one is more fun because of the missions, why shouldn't you also give a game which is more fun as the same game with less content a higher score? it is more fun to play this game so it deserves a higher rating.
all in theory, if it is more fun because of it is another question.
€dit: just saw it seems like it is content you have to download and with that it shouldn't get a better score then even if it's awesome because not everyone has his console online so not everyone will play this version with the extra content
