[QUOTE="BioShockOwnz"]Both GameRanking and Metacritic are useless here. They're the 2 sources cows grasp onto when their game flops.Heil68

It's funny when people say GS is biased then use Meta or GR cause Cnet owns all three sites lol

Cnet DOESNT own all the sites that compile the scores at those 2 sites. lol

Dont matter... if GS is bias then why use anything owned by them??? Makes no sense. Find another site that isn't owned by them and thus bias according to those people.

So a bias owner is ok when it favors some people but the same bias entity is bad here?

Im sure there are other sites like GR is all.

Metacritic is the same kind of site as gamerankings only they have averaged reviews for movies,books, and TV slongside games.

The layout is also 500 times better and prettier, also more sources and more informative.

They don't have more sources. Metacritic intentionally chooses only "reputable" review sources. Not like RottenTomatoes or GameRankings, which accept pretty much everything as a source.

rottentomatoes does have the "cream of the crop" review percent for the movies though.

LOL 89, they couldnt just give it a 90!?!. Just like how GS gives almost a 9.0 to anthing Sony.

Oh well it is still AAA certified, average score of 9.2-9.3! Thats a seal of aproval!

That isn't true. Gamerankings my list every site, but when it comes to score averages they have to scores, one that includes all sites and one of the more credible. (If you clicko n a game in gamerankings you see a big score and a little score in "()" the big one is the one with all the crappy sites sorted out the small one is the one with all of them.

Lol, nice, I like this topic though because it's changed like 3 times now and everytime it does it gets a new wave of R&C fever stirred up again.(not that it has really ever died down much)
