If you want to choose the best of something but two things are tied you look at decimals if they are available, you don't say ITS A TIE!!! Just because you want it to be. If more detail is available you use it simple as, it's illogical not to rank something as accurately as possible. Person A finished in 10.1 seconds Person B finished in 10.3 seconds ITS A TIE!!! Frankly I don't give a damn about any of this but seeing people be illogical makes me into a twat.
Uncharted 4 is the highest rated exclusive game according to metacritic this gen, absolute fact anyone choosing to ignore data to say otherwise is reaching.

But there are no decimals in metacritic. At least not available to us. For all we know they could be completely tied.
Anyway, in reviews, what does .2 points even mean? More fun? Less tedious? Better overall? Graphics, characters, story, world design, level design? It's meaningless in the end.
I'm just ranting on the video games review system, tbf.

We don't have the decimals available, all we have is Metacritic's own list where UC4 is ranked higher than SM3DW. Which necessarily means that they *can't* be tied, however close they are.
I could ask the same about 1 point, or 5 or 10. I agree tbh, review scores suck when they are aggregated. It kinda works if it's the same reviewer you're following, cause then you know an 8 vs a 7 simply means that same reviewer liked the 8 more, but when you throw it all together ala Metacritic, it means nothing.
