Phil Spencer: Some reviewers give games low scores to get more clicks

[GribbleGrunger]

On the subject of ReCore, Spencer went on to say that he wished the game had been received better; some reviews were a "little harsh," he said. He also suggested that some reviewers scored it lower than the average specifically to increase site traffic. But at the same time, he said the review scores are not necessarily a reflection of the game's importance to Microsoft. Also, the game is "selling well" and gamers are receiving it positively. "The gamers' response to the game has been positive, which is the most important thing," he said.

Sure I bet this happens sometimes, but who would do that to recore?

A clickbait score would have been 10/10.

Stop being a salty baby Spencer.

I'm sure it happens at times, but people who thinks this happens a lot are a bit crazy.

Spencer saying stuff for fanboys to repeat in forums again. He's been pretty good at that he knows how to fuel them up and let em go.

Between this and the scorpio price comment Phil Spencer is giving captain obvious a run for his money.

I know people get upset when Spencer slips up and tells the truth but I rather like truthful Spencer.

I want to puke when he pretends he wishes Sony good luck and hugs and kisses fly.  

It's a market place competition!  Fight it out in the market place with your ideas, products and services to win!  

I pay attention for the entertainment of it all and Phil inviting people around a camp fire, holding hands and singing Kumbaya isn't exciting nor truthful.
