Polygon gave fable journey a 40, Star Wars kinect a 40, forza horizon a 60, fable heroes a 40. All of these scores were well below the average metacritic for these games. You would think if Microsoft actually had a say in their reviews they wouldn't let polygon completely shit on their whole kinect can be used with real games strategy considering they were pushing it hard.

Who on here actually give any weight to Polygon..... beside when it came to Knack Polygon was spot on compare to the average.... I'd be more concern about the 5 negative reviews.
Knack is obviously a flawed game or else there would be no negative reviews.
Just because you like a game doesn't mean it deserves a good score. Gamers constantly complain about review scores being inflated, and then turn around and bitch about their favorite games getting low scores. Stop complaining because someone else had an opinion different from yours.
The definitive evidence that video games turn people into mass murderers
So a game got bad reviews an going against them, you bought it expecting them to be wrong, and are now shocked that you were right about them being wrong when you had your mind made up they were, before you ever played the game..... Makes perfect sense...

it's like going to see a movie that everyone bashed and your expecting the worst. Then it turn out it was OK. The best way to play or watch anything is with lowered expectation.

| cbarroso09 said: welcome to gaming. But why people can't understand that Nintendo games are based around what you described? The difference is that Nintendo is the best on that and the games are more complex. |
lol What does Nintendo have to do with anything here? The point being made in this article can apply to a plethora of games, systems, and publishers/ devs; not just Nintendo. However, you act like Nintendo titles are somehow bashed by reviewers in the industry, despite the fact that most of them rest in the 80s to 90s on Metactic. Stop trying to act Nintendo is somehow a victim here; it just makes you sound deeply upset that nobody wants to buy a Wii-U. Sorry dude, it's just not a good console.
I could write an entire on how Nintendo is far from the best and how their games are far from complex, but I'm just gonna leave with this: Nintendo hasn't truly added something to the industry since they saved it back in the 80s. They've been making the same names for decades now, and it's getting really old. The Wii-U proves this. Also, with the exception of LoZ, Nintendo are far from complex.

The story is easy to follow, and has no need to be picked apart. This is just a game you can kick back, and not think to hard about. It is a nice break from the typical throw as many options and hectic action as possible at the player formula. Why do game journalists score a game like this so bad? From what I have seen it does everything it sets out to do well. Sure its not elite, but what could they have done to score better in this type of game? Adding more would take away the simplisity that makes this game what it is. I hear so much about gameplay, and a game comes out that gives the player a simple fun system gets torn apart. Not much else to say. I am having a good time playing this game, and that is what matters. Personally I would rather play this than LBP, but I guess my idea of fun is much different than the general consensus. |
Could you please elaborate on this and compare it with the original Crash Bandicoot Series? In terms of quality, fun factor, game style etc.
Playstation 5 vs XBox Series Market Share Estimates
Regional Analysis (only MS and Sony Consoles)
Europe => XB1 : 23-24 % vs PS4 : 76-77%
N. America => XB1 : 49-52% vs PS4 : 48-51%
Global => XB1 : 32-34% vs PS4 : 66-68%
Good to hear. I admit I got scared off by the reviews at first, now I regret I didn't pick it up at launch. Not that I don't have plenty things to play atm :)
It's on my second wave of games list together with AC4 and the ps4 eye for playroom. Contrast is also pretty good, not sure why that got a bad rep too.Its a bit heavy on the talking is my only problem with it.
I guess reviewers need to reset their scoring at the start of a new gen, they've been stuck with inflated scores for too long. Or their expectations are simply too high.
New experiences will come later, developers could hardly get current experiences ready in time. I also would have liked a full god game with the from dust engine, a non dumbed down rts with the touch pad, or a space flight sim with occulus rift support. These things take time.
