Not if they're putting movies in the video game section.

they should. they also shouldn't accept anything from the publishers/devs.

Not metacritic unless they changed something recently

I dont see why not, Steam reviews show if you've purchased the game or not, why not metacritic?

Yes

Review bombing is cancer

Review bombing doesn't exist, if developers didn't make objectively garbage games they would be reviewed higher. Simple as that, OOT has been reviewed 66,000 on the internet and has a avg of 96%

Yes
Activists giving games a 10/10 or 0/10, need to be purged.

>Review bombing doesn't exist

then what is this?

Oh no the evil gamers have gone too far with their kill epic videogames for the lulz tdhrumpj has to be stopped!!!!

Metacritic is an absolute fucking trashfire, the concept is fundamentally flawed and there's no fixing it.

Last Jedi is a terrible movie, it got a terrible score. Critics are wrong & the media is full of lying piece of shit, everything they say nowadays is the opposite of what's actually true.

I'd agree with you if this was 10 years ago, but culture war bullshit motivates people to do the pettiest things. Didn't care for TLoU2 but no way did it deserve those 0 scores.

I love how Zig Forumstards can never contain themselves and always have to give themselves away, zero subtlety. Your biggest enemy is your own incompetence.

Ok but plenty of terrible movies get good scores. This movie was popular so it got review bombed.

>but no way did it deserve those 0 scores.

Game is also far from being a GOTY masterpiece as well

You probably mean it isn't super effectively because it is minority compared to large scale, review bombing as a practice absolutely exist.
Anybody just give a game a zero with 1 line of text is either retarded or absolutely go out of their way trying to bomb it

Almost like critics are fucking idiots who have terrible taste
Cope harder tranny, Journalists are the ones pushing their garbage agenda's down everyone's throat. Those 0/10's were warranted, as evedent at the fact that shills ignore the 40k botted 10/10 scores it got every day

Based

I do agree with it but I also never use review sites so idk

No they don't retard

Why are the scores so wrong? Did you edit it OP?

no, you can make a judgment just watching videos uploaded on youtube. Especially in this stupid ass game

But it is real

The real issue is that twats need to make it a system of thumbs up or thumbs downs cause faggots can only think in extremes. If metacritic was managed with the idea of having a community, people could link their shit all the time and you'd be able to see results based on people who have opinions you actually think are worth listening to instead of Jews vs Unwashed Masses. Instead, they try to treat it like a holy unobjective ground even though it's filled with flaws and they damage control for companies when they get bombed for being publicly stupid. Netflix used to have a feature like that and they took it off because of Amy fucking Schumer was called out as being worthless so everyone needed to suffer.

It got fewer reviews than the previous one.
I fail to see how the same people who normally review movies (retards) having an opinion besides "OMG nostalgia make my pp hard" counts as review bombing.
I can't comment on the movie itself, though. I always thought Star Wars was boring, so I haven't seen any of the new ones.

TLOU2 was a solid 7.5 to 8.5.

Anyway, the only thing close to reliable internet reviews is Steam because you know the people reviewing it at least bought the game. You can just ignore ".3 hours played" and "product received for free" shills. Metacritic and Rotten tomatoes are both awful and full of shills from both sides. "Critic" just means paid shill these days.

Except it factually isn't tranny

It's a 4/10 at best since TLOU wasn't even a 6/10 when it came out. but a tranny like yourself has no standards

>all old games from much childhood

Dude you are so fucking stupid it hurts, I was actually agreeing with you that the effect of review bombing is overblown. But as a practice it exist, how the fuck can you not understand the difference between action and result?

ok retard

shawshank redemption is the normiest movie ever holy shit

Dumb ESL.

How do I upvote in Zig Forums?

Requiring proof of anything is racist, user. Having to buy the game disproportionately effects black people.
:^)

yes, and this applies to "professional" reviews too

Review bombing is the equivalent of throwing a shit fit in a resturant. I can understand you're bummy about an issue but either whine/complain about it in your review while giving an actual honest opinion or talk to the developers if it's gameplay related.

No,they get copies from publishers for 95% of the time,some ecelebs get blacklisted and shit but gaming outlets dont. I still wonder why reviews from sites like Official Playstation Magazine,Playstation lifestyle and shit are still counted into metascore like lmao,same applies to Nintendo/Xbox centered sites like thats actually fucking retarded.

Not at all. As long as companies bot good reviews and have influence over critics, any abuse of ratings systems by users is 100% justified.

You're life is literally just buzzwords and I'm lmaoing at it

Literally go through TLOU 2 user reviews and see how many are "lol bad game" with a 0 score given. That's review bombing and no matter how hard you try to move goal posts, it's not going to change that fact.

There is obviously turbo virgins like you who got mad at a buff female so you're still playing mental gymnastics about review bombing
