Forums - Gaming Discussion - Metacritic Scores for DS

because most of the reviews are bullshit and people know it

or, considering DS and PSP reviews as "fair", the console ones become the bullshit.



the words above were backed by NUCLEAR WEAPONS!

Around the Network

Because reviewers rarely see portable releases as 'massive' in the same way, so they don't get caught up in the hype train and murky review-buying side of things which results in more 'normal' scores. Take GTA:Chinatown Wars as an example - it scored a mighty impressive 94, but GTA IV, which when you put things into perspective is a much worse game - in gameplay and classic GTA terms - scored much higher. That any game can score 98 (is it?) is ludicrous in my opinion.
