Forums - Sony - still don't know why Variety.com is biased against ps3?come on in then...

Retards from metacritic think A from 1UP is 100 for GeOW2, then what is A+ for LBP? Gamerankings is much better site with credibility. I would rather judge the game with IGN, GS, GT, Eurogamer, 1UP and Edge reviews. These 6 sites are the most popular and much better credibility then no-body Variety.



Around the Network

Not sure if this was mentioned yet, but I was browsing around Metacritic and wanted to check if Dead Space was still a 90 rated game, unfortunately it is not. Awesome game.

Anyways, the game is rated an 89 overall for 360 and an 88 overall for PS3, not a big difference I know (Wasn't the PS3 the lead platform for this game?)but I spotted something.

Variety rated the game a 70 (according to Metacritic). Why did they add this 70 into the PS3 scores and not the 360 version? What omit it for one and use it on another, causing its overall score to drop below the other?

This is Metacritic inconsistencies I am always talking about. This is the "pick and choose" approach I speak of.

 LBP I guess is supposed to tip the scale?

It is not just GeOW 2 though, this happens with any game rated an A. Metacritic are just to incompetant to figure out how to distinguish the difference between an A and an A+.

Real hard stuff you know.

Did you know Variety also reports on A LOT of Sony pictures news and has many sources there?

OH my GOD SONY BIAS CONFIRMED!!!!!!

Oh, wait...Sony Pictures has almost nothing to do with Sony Gaming just like MSN has almost nothing to do with Microsoft games...

God I hate conspiracy theories.

 

 Which is why the XBOX 360 uses MSN

lol, yeah, a group of PS3 fans group together and ban bad review scores for PS3 exclusives. That's credible.
