Forums - Sony - Technically inferior Xbox One games have higher metacritic, WHY?

chapset on 20 March 2014

The X1 version doesn't get reviewed by most click bait websites (they tend to give lower scores so the fanboys will click on their sites to express their discontent), I presume.



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

And why do you stick on Netflix as it is one exemple... Are you really missing what he is trying to say by better experience or are you just replying with rude response like that on purpose?

And yes, I'm actually watching Twitch while playing other games (not always but it happen and I enjoy it for sure) or sports on TV....

Rude? Netflix is one of the things you can snap! Netflix, Hulu, Ted Talks, Television, Music. I was just throwing that out there as an idea. How is saying that rude? 

woops misquoted :) Was replying to Henry_something :)

Not so fast! NBA Live for the PS4 ( 43) has a higher metascore than the Xbox One version ( 36)! Victory for the PS4!

Because Xbox players have much lower standards.

Well a few review of both have noted that the Xbox version runs a bit smoother and has less lag and glitches. Lag and glitches can really bring a game down.

Plus the controller is an improvement of the much loved Xbox 360 controller. Even the new Steam Controller and Amazon borrow from it heavily.

Plus, and I'm going to say it. There could be a few Kinect features that pop in the make the game more fun. Like how on the 360 in Skyrim you can actually shout your dragon shouts. I haven't see a review of a multi plat state anything about the PS4 camera.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

Interesting observation.

Remember, each reviewer is their own person with their own opinions. And also remember that graphics and resolution don't make a great game. They add to it, but certainly aren't the deciding factor.

I see this as evidence that Xbox One has the superior controller and thus merits a higher average score because it adds to the ease of playability, enjoyment, and fun. ;)


Xbox One has the superior wut? o.o

Awe, don't be sad.  I saw one reviewer once say he liked how the PS4 digital pad brough up menus in games.  So someone liked it.

But he/she also said it was frustrating you couldn't use it for other navagation.

Sad? Na, I'm very happy having the superior multiplats.

Well, not according to the scores and the reviews.

Which is what this thread is about.

And this is before DirectX 12 become part of the Xbox One.  50% increase in CPU will be something else.
