So now you guys run back to METACRITIC????

some reviews should get removed if down voted by many people.Gen007

I always look at metacritic but in system wars only Gamespot's score counts. No if's, and's, or but's. thems the rules

Anyone that does otherwise is a delusional noob

No, that's exactly how it works. Flops determind by GS, use of metacritic for anything else.

It met the hype and it's a great score.The reason why people are joking around with this is because it failed to beat Gears.
It has always been UC vs Gears.

Sorry bro, keep your rules to yourself because that's not how I do things and will ever do things. You either look at the bigger picture or you continue being ignorant and biased.

That my good friend is how it works.

I mean i wouldnt leave it up to the people but a review with a large amount of down votes should get checked out by a mod or something that has the final judgement ove weather it gets removed or not.

btw I'm not arguing against that, they can follow whatever opinion they want and claim it as fact. I'd rather look at the majority of opinions and make truth from that, don't see why anybody else wouldn't honestly.

GS score is law, MC is secondary Diviniuz

Do you understand what we mean when we say flop? I don't think you do. A game is hyped AAA, which is a 9 or a 9.5 here. If it gets anything less than a 9 then it is a flop. Why is it a flop? Because it didn't obtain the AAA rating that the majority said it would. We aren't saying its a bad game because an 8.5 is a great score, but it did not live up to its AAA hype.

[QUOTE="ActicEdge"]

[QUOTE="XileLord"] Alright firstly

Just because we post on gamespot doesn't mean we have to be ignorant of every other review score. Flops are not determined by one critics opinion, that's basically saying one mans opinion is worth more than another mans opinion. Now you might be inclined to believe this if you hold biased to one man's opinion over another's so implying because we post here we have to be biased and ignorant is delusional in itself and then to say "anyone else who is not biased like me to one man's opinion and ignorant to everybody else's like me is a noob" is just mind blowing to me. (You realize that one review score is just one person's opinion right?)

I mean what argument are you going to make? People here need to start looking at the bigger picture. Secondly if Metacritics UC3 score is higher it is the better game review wise then GeoW3, this is a undeniable FACT. This is coming from somebody who owns both consoles but only plays one 90% of the time (360) is a huge gears fan and who supported the FZ4 Metacritic score as justifying the game is AAA (because it is AAA and anybody says otherwise needs to actually look at the review scores without being a biased fanboy)

Also to the poster I quoted, your so called "rules" can gtfo out of here because I'm not posting under them.

XileLord

No, that's exactly how it works. Flops determind by GS, use of metacritic for anything else.

Luckily no one cares about your opinion in SW official rules :)

MC is a COMPILATION of profressional reviews, basically a consensus.

[QUOTE="freedomfreak"]
That's your problem.We have been doing this for a long time.Flops are determined by GS' scores.It's just a game.dwi.

Forza flopped, UC3 didnt. Which is the biggest differece when comparing scores.

I really don't know how to lay it out any clearer then this

If the majority of the people here follow the rules that a game flops based on the GS score, then the game can only flop on this site and to those set of people. For example if the game got a 9.0 on IGN the people on IGN wouldn't consider the game to have flopped, now lets compile the reviews from the majority of the sites/magazines to see where it flopped and where it didn't.

If it was AAA on most sites and it's hype was AAA then it lived up to the hype. This is how critical reception has been determined for a long time, why are you trying to argue against that?

XileLord

We're not talking about critical reception though. We're just talking about Gamespot. This is a game only played on Gamespot.

Flop doesn't mean worse. It means did not achieve scored that had highest number of votes in hype thread. As far as GeoW 3 vs U3, when U3 comes out then you can type "really". Until then you have no way of knowing.

So everyone all over the world just uses Gamespot scores? Its a fun game that is played on System Wars, and the best way to maintain consistent rules is to use Gamespot scores. Its really that simple. A flop is not a bad game, but one that didn't meet the hype. What is so hard to understand about this?

Some people either don't want to agree on the GS Metagame terms or just want to troll, because that's how things have ALWAYS been.:P But of course, people have to DC and bring up other sites. Like EVERYONE stated in here, a game is a flop if it doesn't meet it's HYPE and it exceeds it's HYPE if it scores higher than it's HYPE. How hard is it to understand these simple System Wars rules that have been in use for many, many years now.:?

Be happy that it's not the same as last generation, where any game that doesn't get a AAA rating, is a flop. Be happy my fellow fanboys.:lol:

You can bring up MC all you want when it isn't Metagame based over here, but when we talking about flops, it is correlated towards the HYPE the game got. Flopza 4 is a flop, Uncharted 3 isn't a flop.:P

I've been saying that the whole time. Just because a game flops here doesn't mean its a bad game.

There is no data, no standard deviation, no z-score, no nothing... It's a simple GAME people.:|

People in SW using whatever means necessary to support their arguments? Not a chance

[QUOTE="XileLord"]

[QUOTE="freedomfreak"] You really,really don't get it.But that doesn't matter,a lot of people don't. Fact is.It's a simple game we play on GS to play around with flops.It really is that simple,if you can't handle that,that's fine.You're just looking to much into it.

freedomfreak

speak for yourself. This is 1 credible review site over 60+ not even counting the magazines. The game can flop here, my arguement is that just because it didn't live up to the hype here according to the review here doesn't mean it hasn't mostly everywhere else. In other words, it does matter if it does or does not flop anywhere else, why the hell wouldn't it? Seriously :|
