Yeah, I remember people claiming Dark Cloud was Playstation's Zelda, lol.
Dark Cloud is more like Playstation's ActRaiser.

I'm saying the industry's standard scale which have always been 0-10 is the norm and a such 5 is the average score.
I bet you're open critic scores would go down rapidly if they started reviewing steam trash, and as such it's fluctuating while the old ass system still works, as the rating is based on their time and makes the most sense.
A game getting 7 all across the board should not make it "average" as it would be above on the rating system they use.
Mentionable occurrences of falling through the ground isn't the level of polish you expect from a first party game.
I'm sure you will let us all know if it happens in Halo 6
It's a stupid ass system and I merely use it as a quick look to see what the general population thinks.
A 5 is the rating average no matter how much you want to say otherwise.
You can say it's below average among the rest of the rated games, but it's still above average on a critics scale.
And if you want to push the fact we have a lot of great games and as such move the goal post for the average the scoring system needs to change.
Yes I'm fully aware the score system is fucked and games get 9 and 10s willy nilly

Mediocre scores as expected. It looks like a poor man's R&C.

The RT system should be applied to games.
So this year we have had Xboxes Last of Us and Xboxes Zelda, greatest games line up in xbox history for sure!
Wait, what was supposed to be the Xbox TLOU?
problem with the median and total average is that more or less only AAA or higher profile games get reviewed. And as such the bar will be higher than it actually would be if you review everything.They absolutely don't though. Look at how many games got those ratings during this console generation. There aren't a lot.
It just so happens that most games do not score a "5", which would be the middle-point of the scale but doesn't mean that it's automatically the average score. The average score is the average of all scores. Literally. Just because 5 is in the middle between 1 and 10 doesnt automatically make it the average.
This is a weird argument o0

Not gonna lie, kinda want to play this now. But it's only on XBone so

On the critics score its average once it hits 5 but on total it's not since most games don't actually get reviewed.
So no trophies, plus that terrible Win 10 interface yeah?It's also on PC
Fuck sake
It's weird to see Jim Sterling give the game one of its more positive reviews.
Pretty much all console games seem to get reviews.
Dark Cloud is more like Playstation's ActRaiser.
'the heart of a PS2 or Gamecube-era platformer'
EXACTLY what I was hoping to hear. I'll take 20.
Yeah, I just rewatched it. That was a great point in that E3, I thought.Was rooting for this, had such a promising reveal trailer.
So no trophies, plus that terrible Win 10 interface yeah?
I think it was Quantum Break. I vaguely remember an article saying something like that. Or it may have been a Gaf thread.Wait, what was supposed to be the Xbox TLOU?
Point is everyone screaming it's below average when the used score system says otherwise. I mean sure, if you take everything it is, but individually it's still above a 5 on the critic scale.What's the point in repeating "5 IS THE AVERAGE RATING" when it's clear that it's almost never used that way? Why are you so attached to this axiom?
Yeah there is only 1 Playstation's Zelda.
I think it was Quantum Break. I vaguely remember an article saying something like that. Or it may have been a Gaf thread.
The multiple mentions of exploration makes me happy.
I get the feeling this will be a case of where people will buy and enjoy this game, and those who only read bad reviews will try to convince them that its a bad game.
I'll be glad to report back in this thread if I don't enjoy it.
I always find it funny how people latch onto 1 or 2 people's thoughts and project it k to everybody's thoughts of the game. 1 person(hip hop gamer I believe) said QB was the Cbox TLOU. Nobody else claimed that and not even somebody from a major outlet but yet here we areProbably Quantum Break.
Anticipated? I've yet to purchase it and barely even cared until I saw the stream which looked interesting.I think he's arguing that Steam shovelware should be reviewed, that way when his anticipated game comes out to middling reviews, he can see that long trail of garbage on the low end of the scale and feel better about himself.
I think.

Not to mention if you only give select games review usually you pick good games (or high cost ones with a lot of marketing behind it) which usually will go above the default critic score line.
How does this game fare overall to all the other $40 games?
I'd agree but Bloodborne and Uncharted 4 are pretty much better than every exclusive last gen alone so it works out.another miss for a sony/ms first party title. truly the worst gen in terms of exclusives.
