I bet dollars to donuts that if Jim gave this game a 10/10 you wouldn't begin to question his playtime. The fact of the matter is that we don't actually know how much he played this game other than that he sunk an indeterminant amount of time in the days leading up to a 2-3 day period where he sunk the majority of his time. That could still result in 40-50 hours of play time overall. Ironically, Jim could have played the game more than the majority of reviewers that gave the game a 10/10 for all we know. |
If he gave it a 10/10, no one would have even noticed. 95% of teh reviews have been out now. Another 10/10 or 9/10 or whatever would have gone completely unnoticed. It might get one comment on the metacritic topic saying "oh, jim gave it 10/10"
These late reviewers know that. No one is sitting on pins and needles waiting for anyones review at this point. Only way you get noticed is if you are outside the norm. In that case a score lower than a 9. Since last I had checked, there were none. It's not surprising that at this point we are having thse 6's and 7's pop up. They want their five minutes of fame.
