Well that's what happens when your launch is garbage.


 Halo's MCC launch was garbage (online) and the only company that judged it based on how its online was acting was Gamespot. They all judged this game based on its preparation without giving it the benefit of the doubt like Halo.

Haters gonna hate. I agree with you 100% most people who have actually player d it will. People who havent will watch a vid on YouTube and read a bad review and dismiss it. Case and point^^

Yeah and unfortunately the vast majority on the internet belongs to the type who base their opinions on others opinions of a game that is reviews. They criticise  agame even though they have never played it, just because of some reviewer.

And thanks to the large Nintendo fanbase on this site, I see DC being grouped with crappy games like Ryse and KZ: SF, which is a shame.

Must be those damm nintendo fanboys bringing down driveclub whenever they can. I havent seen a single post from an obvious Nintendo fan on this site grouping it with ryse and killzone (is killzone even considered as bad as ryse??). Prehaps you should lay off having a go at an entire group if you're going to make shit up.

Bayonetta 2 seems to be widely overlooked even though it got the best accumilated scores fo the year. Its sales were predictable.

So a game with a decent metascore is underrated. Okay.

Funny thing is the reviews I've seen mostly complain about the AI, driver penalties, and rubberbanding.

The metascore is average for a VERY good racing game. There are problems with AI, but that and the other few problems have no weight against its positive qualities. It deserves an 85+ easily.


85+ seems like a tall order in 8th generation scores... Just being completely honest there. It could be a few points higher though, but its close to the score I think it deserves.

Have you even played it?

Yes.

I'm not making shit up dude, I've seen comments like that, but of course I can't single out the users who did so.

Anyways, the ones who grouped KZ: SF and Ryse are right on that one, both the games are equally bad. But Driveclub is far better.

So you've seen a user who said something like that and decided that somehow the whole fanbase is the reason that driveclub has a bad rep? It has a bad rep becuase it's launch was horribly broken, missing features, and reviewers found it's actual gameplay to be average.

Now there is nothing wrong with liking or loving this game, hell some of my favorite games haven't exactly scored highly, but I don't think it's fair to start blaming everything but the game because some people don't agree with you.
