a second-tier AC = XCX

lol


Have you played either of them? How do you know that AC is not good? Or that maybe XCX is simply inferior to XC? 

Even though XCX scored well people are still bashing the review. Funny how reviews sometimes matter a lot other times its a pile of garbage, based on gamers IP loves

PS: Im buying PZD... tries the demo last night and I have to say that it made me go from a bargain bin maybe to a pretty much full price purchase

FFXIII-2 was better than Xenoblade in my opinion. And I have a right to say it since I for one have played both.

Xenoblade is better than Lightning Returns though.

Your biased opinion of playing both games is invalid, go away........ :0

I don´t choose the lowest score, you are chosing the higer for some reason. 85 on pc, 85 on xbo, 89 on ps4. Wich one you choose? 89, of course. Why? because it makes your point more valid, or so you think, but it doesnñt. That Farcry 4 exemple is just giving me the reason. Why ps4 has the higer score? because is on ps4 and there´s lots of Sony related webs that gives ps4 games higher scores, is obvious. DAI has a wonderfull optimization on PC, it even works on my laptop at 1080p 60fps on medium-high. And my laptop is 2 years old and not very expensive, I usually play only on my PC, that is stronger.

I always choose the highest score of a game accross all available platforms. Beacuse I know the game is essentially the same accross all platforms minus  technical details. Angry Joe for example gave the PC version of Dragon Age a 8/10 because of its crappy mouse and keyboard support at lauch, he then gave it a 9/10 on other platfroms. I remeber all the rage on reddit and PC Gamer at launch. Regardless, I always pick the highest score.



I predict that the Wii U will sell a total of 18 million units in its lifetime. 

The NX will be a 900p machine

I believe Metroid Prime never caught on like other Metroid games because it had a First Person perspective.

Shame since Metroid Prime was a great game.

Wrong about exclusive content being rated higher or something else?

The DAI score is higher on ps4... why? Obviously because the amount of sony related webs giving the game higher scores. Best version is PC, and the XBO version is the same as the ps4. So why is 4 points down?

The gap is due to different sample groups, not "sony related webs giving the game higher scores". The pure average difference of the PS4 version with and without scores from Sony focused sites is barley 0.1% (88.814% vs 88.712%).

We see this happen all the time on metacritic. Your best bet is usually to use whichever version has the most reviews as your reference point, then read some of the reviews of the version you actually want to see if there is a solid reason for it being higher or lower (outside of having a different sample group).

I would disagree there personally. Focusing on side characters was only a positive thing when the original cast was so bad, imo. And the cast of FFXIII was a common complaint people had with the game, along with the linearity and story, so I wouldn't be surprised if many reviewers found it to be a relief not to have to deal with that again.
It was a better game than FFXIII for sure. Though I would not give it a perfect score. Not even close.

Lol, maybe. I've always prefered an actual party of characters though (instead of 2 and monsters). Also, sugary sweet Serah and just plain dull Noel I wouldn't say is an upgrade by any means. That may just be me though.

Well I hope this puts to rest the unwarranted fears expressed by a few individuals that X wouldn't have a big story or much of a story focus. As a Takahashi game this was inevitable and pretending otherwise was just silly.

I honestly don't remember which members thought that so I'm not calling anyone out.

Wow, never would have guessed to see P&D score higher than Xenoblade X.. :/

Were there seriously people who thought that? I thought it was a given that XCX will have a large focus on the story.
