Destiny with a 76 = bad game

Driveclub with a 74 = oh boy... just put the poor thing out of its misery


Ryse 60 = A really good game, I think the reviewers got it wrong tbh, I'm pretty sure they are being harsher this gen, etc,etc

Hell, 1,97 million people bought KZ:SF and look how this ended on metacritic... There are people who even enjoyed Ryse... Well, in the end it all comes down to personal preferences and all that, not to mention that fanbases of course seem to like exclusives way more and talk about them way more in a hype way but that's just how it goes and works on forums :)


Sorry to but in on your conversation but Killzone got a 73 on metacritic. That is a good score and the game is also good. It wasn't the second coming of christ but it was a fun, solid shooter. 

That's exactly what I was talking about.



Not looking so hot, maybe it goes up.

I was sure the PS+ version would inflate the score a bit.

Guess we know why they had the embargo lift after the game launched

It still doesn't work. I can cancel my pre-order of Driveclub if i wanted to right now. It hasen't shipped yet :P. They needed to embargo it 1 more day.

User reviews : 6.5

not gonna buy it on my ps4 ill buy fh 2 instead


you got to be joking. Look at the people giving it a zero in the reviews. 8 of the 30 "user" reviews have given it a zero. The game isn't even released yet so it's obvious these haven't played it and even if they did it's obviously nowhere near a zero game. 

Hell, one of the zer scores are from a guy called Eresuntrollaco. Go figure. I reckon it will be an 8/10 racer and if you've PS plus it's good value whether you only take that edition or the upgrade. 

But I doubt you even have a PS4 and just posted so you could mention FH2.

Where were people saying Ryse is a good game? Most XB1 fans have basically said the same as other fans.

Never trust reviews. Any of them. Just try the game and have an honest opinion. I'm tired of people saying the game sucks because of Metascore.

Yeah but the problem with that is that you might actually spend a lot of money on a game that isn't all that great.

It's always a gamble with new games, so I tend to decide by reviews a lot.


If the demo is available (like the PS+ edition of this game), try it. If not, watch the gameplay.

How can I say... When you read a review, your opinion becomes biased. If a game has a low score, you basically start playing with an "meh" opinion instead of a fresh opinion. That's why I really don't care if a game is scored 50 or 100, or if its seeling bad or good.

I didn't read your chat with him so i didn't know your point. Just wanted to give my 2 cents. Glad we agree! 

ALso did ryse get something like 60? It's prob a 7/10 game but because it's over hyped the reviewers make it pay.

Forza 5 with a 79 = Good game

 

Destiny XBone with a 79 = Good game unlike the PS4 version

 

Driveclub just needs a few more points and it will jump from shit to good. So crazy how these metascores work. O_o

The 70-79 is the most ambiguous scoring range anywhere. Not just on Metacritic.
