Metacritic Refuses To Pull Negative Review That GameSpot Admits Was Factually Inaccurate

If you head on over to the Metacritic page for Natural Selection 2, you might notice something strange. Of the seven reviews listed, only one is scored below an 80.

Man Metacritic is such a joke... That's really sucky of that dude to give a false review like that. Oh well, at least it didn't hurt sales, seems it did really well regardless. :]

''Metacritic Refuses To Pull Negative Reviews That Are Mostly Factually Inaccurate''

One thing I don't quite get is how metacritic decides to add reviews to a certain game, take Resistance 3 for instance it received a perfect score from G4TV, a major site, yet the review was never included, the publications from which the reviews are added, should always remain consistent, otherwise this should be regarded as score manipulation.

I just don't take metacritic seriously anymore.
They accept some really crappy, poorly written and poorly judged and biased reviews and usually refuse others like the g4tv one you mentioned.

Metacritic is the Kotaku of review aggregates.

why did gamespot publish the review in the first place?

ThanatosDMC4185d ago

Because the author of the first review just sucked at the game. He barely played it. There were ridiculous amount of inaccuracies in his review. I dont understand why he's a reviewer when he doesnt seem to actually review the game. It's more like he based his reviews off a hateful forum.

Why doesn't Kevin VanOrd pull his own review of Duke Nukem Forever? A 3/10. Gimme a break. Plus the review was loaded with inaccuracies! I had never been so angry over a review in my life.

Another reason why people should just stop paying attention to metacritic. On a side note I heard great things about Natural Selection 2. Hopefully their will be a sale on the game on black friday, or cyber monday. I have been keeping an eye out for this game.

Warning: We Use Harsh Language When We Play Natural Selection 2

Natural Selection 2 from Unknown Worlds is all about strategy, communication, and teamwork. Unfortunately for the Twinfinite staff, we have none of those things.

This Game is Super fun and very tactical. YES girls do play natural selection 2. PC Girls are so cool.

not all of them curse this much though. YAMI is just so FOUL mouthed that's it's kinda cool! Claudia doesn't curse that much! YAMI OMG she is potty mouth!

She's the Commander she is building stuff, issuing orders, and using the RTS portion of the game. Her role is really important and they are not taking her serious. which is why they are losing.

They are Newbies. My team would Destroy them! Actually we wouldn't even play them lol

Marines need to work as two man teams and deploy lots of turrets.

Aliens are cool as run n gun solo-ist but they need to deploy health regen areas and baby factories/ egg bases.

they totally suck at Natural Selection 2

they should stick to Heroes of Newarth!

They play a lot of games and are funny but they suck at NS2!
