Like I said more pro Sony review sites on Metacrap! :lol:

It doesn't really matter. Metacritics lost credibility because they let garbage like Quarter to Three into their score. If people actually read the review, he gave it a 1/10 because it didn't have a scoring system...What the f(ck? A 2/10 game is something that's practically unplayable, even if you don't like the game it's still well polished and has no technical issues Same with BigPond Game Arena. They gave Halo 4 a 5/10 because it feels dated but they gave Medal of Honor Warfighter a 6 then there's the EGM review /shivers I don't mind if people wnat to give the game a certain score but none of the scores from these three asshats were justified. Hence why metacritics is a joke All the credible sites, Destructoid, 1up, Polygon, Gamespot, IGN, Machinma, Joystiq gave it high reviews At worse Giantbomb and Computer Gaming World gave it an 8 These guys are the one's that matter, not idiots like Brandon Justice and Tom Chick Let the cows try to claim ownage, it means nothing, we all know the facts.

Halo isn't the first game to get some stupid reviewers that trash the game for stupid reasons, every game gets some idiot reviews, hence it all averages out. Kinda the idea of metacritic.

It seems like Halo 4 is getting a lot more. :?

You should have been ignoring the meta anyway a long time ago. Or reviews for that matter. Some tend to be good, some are downright awful but for a game no one has played yet you can never know which is right. just go with your gut.

DarkLink77

I've made my mind up already, I'm getting the game anyway of course. It just annoys me that you get crowds of spoofers on the net, and that their bullsh*t ratings contribute to the overall score. If the game truly is a 2/10, fine, I can live with that, but let's be real here; it's not. And I can make that call without having played 2 minutes of it.

That's why I stick to one or two sites for their scores (GS, Eurogamer etc.) and give others a wide berth (lolGN). I only run into truly crappy sites like "Quarter to Three" when they pop their ugly heads up on Metacritic.

Yeah, not worth my time.

Stop being mad about a bad review. Sh!t happens. It's not like websites like IGN weren't drastically inflating the Metascore on the other end of the spectrum, or anything.

Yeah and UC3 really deserved that 10 it got from IGN. ;)

[QUOTE="mems_1224"] not a chance. reviewers go ape s*** over naughty dog games. pretty graphics and a game that basically plays itself. it will have at least a 92 on metacritic.

I have to say, the Metacritic score is actually making me butthurt. I'm not afraid to say it. I know I shouldn't, because it's only a number, but that 2/10 review has really dragged it down. What a f*cking joke.

I even attempted to read it to see if the idiot brought up any valid criticisms, but lo and behold, it's riddled with spoilers. That's something you tend not to publish in even the most basic of reviews.

Halo 4 is the sites lowest ever rated game on Metacritic. I find that hard to believe, it'd have to be downright broken to achieve such a score. He gave Journey a 4 and Max Payne 3 a 4. Seems like he wants to go against the grain for the sake of it.

From here on out, I'm ignoring the Meta, even if it does rise above AAA again. There's too many sites out there that will just massively overrate or underrate a game and the screening process for decent publications seems to be non-existent. I'm all for getting an average from more than just one site, but at least have 5 or 6 websites and publications that everyone trusts, to a certain extent.

balfe1990

Yeah I think it's best to average the top 30 biggest sites and use that as an average for all games now on.

[QUOTE="DarkLink77"]

Gamearena's review

It's harsh, but it's really hard to disagree with anything that he's said based on what we've seen. Dude makes some good point (though I disagree that the series didn't evolve under Bungie, especially in terms of multiplayer. That's kind of a silly thing to say).

Still, worth a read.

The most interesting critique to me was about the fact that Halo 4 is trying to introduce aspects of the extended fiction (Cortana's Rampancy, the increased focus on the Forerunners) into the game, and that, because this is the first time it's ever been mentioned in the games, it feels incredibly forced. This isn't the first time I'd heard this.

343 keeps saying that you won't need to understand the expanded fiction to enjoy Halo 4's story, but it doesn't seem to be true, given the fact that more than a few reviewers have said that they're basically forcing it down your throat.

FrozenLiquid

They mentioned that some missions are designed like trial-and-error. I'm actually really hoping that's not the case. I like that review though. Really thorough, and really interesting. But remember what we thought DarkLink? This would either be the last AAA Halo game, or the first of the AA Halo games. But it's like nothing I could've imagined. It appears to both at once.

And I bet this reviewer is going to give COD: BOII a 9. :lol:

[QUOTE="Obviously_Right"]

[QUOTE="RoslindaleOne"] Exactly. That's why they should just stick to the system wars metagame. Using metacritic shows how desperate they are for looking for ownage. And when was 89 a bad rating? :lol:RoslindaleOne

Think you mean 87 lol

Just you wait until The Last of Flop gets that score or less! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

TCWBO! :lol:
