What time is it?
I find Metacritic way better and easier to use than OpenCritic.

I will still judge it. Doesn't matter which platform it belongs to.But what if the game is completely pants and it's Xbox users who are being done a solid here?
(no, I haven't played it)
I did not like it because it lacked a useful summary and the interface was not of my liking.Gamerankings 4 Life.

So for me it was never useful and it never helped me to buy a game… that is the whole point that I find Metacritic useful.
BTW games vastly diverse in quality across platforms… so not separating it feel really weird.

4+5+4=13. But as there are two 4s, you subtract 2 to get 11. Duh.Not really
1st party games are whole lot of mess territory.3rd party games are not the best example why metacritic sucks. Besides converting 5/5, 10/10 and 20/20 systems into a 100/100 system it's more the exclusives that are rated too high in my opinion, especially Sony and Nintendo. Metacritic is full of reviewers named PSX Extreme, DualShockers, PlayStation LifeStyle, LaPS4, PlayStation Universe, Playstation Official Magazine UK, PlayStation Country and so on plus many revierwers are in the perfect age to have grown up with a PlayStation or a Nintendo console.
The is basically useless…Name 10 notable games in the last year or even 2 years that have had vastly diverse quality between Xbox and Playstation.
I can understand Switch ports which i why I mentioned if IF there is a vast difference list it seperately.

When you buy a game, what do you look for?
Most people look at metacritic to judge it.
This is the issue.
You have a game, which tells 2 different stories.
One 1 platform. Its very good. On other, it's meh.
I dont want reviews to review the game for all platforms. Since that would be impossible to do it.
I am just disappointed that this type of reviews are what holds the game down.
The is basically useless…
You just need to think a bit about there are others platforms outside Xbox and PlayStation… and even so in these two there are bugs and issues that maybe bother you, me or somebody else.
Why somebody looking for a game for Xbox have to read reviews for people playing on PlayStation? That makes no sense at all… why should a Xbox player cares about how Hapics feedback feels on PS5?
Unless you are somebody looking for a comparison between Xbox and PlayStation there is no point in making people read experiences in another platforms.
IMO I look for experience of reviewers playing the game on PlayStation and not any other place.
Like I said reviewer aggregators are tools… if that tools is useful to you then it is fine… that is why I do like Metacritic… it is a useful tool for me…. plus tools are personal… some like Gimp, other Paint and others Photoshop.
enjoy my ignore list OP. if you see marty-mcfly, tell him i said hes number one
That’s one reason why Gamepass is so great. You can try it and judge for yourself if a game is good or bad. The Ascent, 67 on metacritic, would’ve probably been skipped by many if we had to buy it. But now it was on Gamepass and people are loving it, user scores sits at 8+/10 everywhere on all platforms, for me it’s among the top 3 games of the year.I wish some of you guys wouldn’t be so depended on “score” so much.
The low quality threads continue............

Until a bunch of them get pissed off about something irrelevant but yeah, generally user reviews is probably a better bet unless you have a different set of tastes in comparison to the people reviewing it however typically that doesn't happen.Metacritic is pretty fucking terrible if you want to find how a game is, the only decent close to reality score that you can find about a game is Steam. Just tons of REAL, not paid, owners of the game, giving their opinions about it.
Do you think Bayonetta on PS3 deserves the same score as the 360 version?
What's up with OP? I swear he's behind 80% of low effort bait threads this past month, and that's probably lowballing it.
And all those reviews are filtered out. It's nice to know something happened but those aren't counted.Until a bunch of them get pissed off about something irrelevant but yeah, generally user reviews is probably a better bet unless you have a different set of tastes in comparison to the people reviewing it however typically that doesn't happen.
