Everyone hates on EA (somethings are very granted) but they have given me some amazing games this gen. I thank them for that

MS tends to back the games with the most metacritic promise.

Yes quoters, post the exceptions, but numbers dont lie.

I'm just quoting to say, LOL.

Well that just speaks "denial" to me. When MS publishes, the games metas tend to be higher. Nothing funny about that.

Again, LOL. BTW this is only for 2012.

Microsoft is a better publisher than Sony? This is very hard to believe, but then again its all left up to votes. LOL Lets see if this is an omen for next year. EA at least has our hate and respect since they have a lot of titles that many westerns love, but Microsoft? Seriously?

This is the issue of perception. You probably wont be alone but you confuse better with more games.

Better means higher metascores, regardless of number of games under each belt.



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

This is for 2012 bro don't even bother. Not Sony's strongest year. 2013 will be a different story.

LMAO!!!!



The title of "best major publisher" is a little misleading. According to Metacritic's calculations, EA-published games were the highest rated. But that alone should not be the criterion for greatness. How does EA treat its publishing partners, how does it treat its consumers, how has it positively or negatively affected the industry, etc. We shouldn't go only by the titles that other companies designed.

"only" for 2012.......the most recent year that just passed a month ago....... lol you act like this is 2007 statistics.

hey np, im used to ps fans refusing to face things. I acknowledge that Sony pumps out more games, but this is about when MS publishes something, the average metascore is higher then sonys.....whats so hard to understand?

Actually of all time MSFT has a better metacritic.  MSFT has a 74 while Sony has a 73




       

This means nothing.
