Quote from: Dr. Pezus on Apr 17, 2018, 03:15 PMHarsh critics seem to have a lot of weight

But it's still at 56 for me

Apparently there's another 10 to be added so it'll go net up

Oh its probably meta not updating properly then. I might be seeing the all time ranks with the 90 counted and not the two 100s.

Edit: wait yeah 56 is what I see too. It was at #53 before though.

I refresh the page and it alternates between #53 and #56.

What is the truth??

There's no truth in meta land.

Still says 53 for me.

Yeah seems like it hasn't moved.

30/89 scores are 100 now. Almost as good a ratio as Uncharted 4!

I remember there were 48 reviews when it first updated on meta. 13 of those were perfect scores. Ratio has just kept increasing since then.

TLOU has 42/98 perfect scores by the way. An insane ratio.

A few 70s is all it'll take to drop right back down. We still have Game Critics, Quarter to Three and Riot Pixels to come. I'd be surprised if those three average more than 80. Very surprised. In fact, even an average of over 70 would still be dodging a bullet from those three.

Add in an edge 8 or 9 and things start to look a bit hairy.

I would not be surprised if it drops to 94.

Quarter to Three:
As for God of War, true story: I didn't know there was a new God of War until last week when a friend asked me about it. She said something about Kratos' son and I was all, like, wait, what, his son? That's how out of the loop I am with console releases. I see it's doing well on Metacritic, so I presume some people think it's really good.

Far Cry 5 is more effective - and relevant - than it knows - Quarter to Three

I'm feeling lucky.

Weird. He could easily pick it up at launch and make a review though.

I guess they pick and choose what to review. Lets hope they either don't review this, or do and give it 5 stars lol.

If they didn't know about GOW until very recently, how are they a game journalist? I stopped reading once they mentioned story stuff so maybe it was hyperbole.

They get more freedom to review what they want. At bigger places, you'd probably get assigned a review if no one else takes it.

He said that in response to whether he was going to review it. So I don't think he will.

Lol, now you can see why their reviews are so shame.

Just quickly looking at art for the first game, it looks like he's always had it. Probably from one of his battles before killing Ares.

TLOU and UC4 both have more hater reviews though. I can't believe GoW still has nothing below 8
