MyGaming looks at the 5 highest rated games of the first half of 2009, and puts them next to the 5 highest rated games of the first half of 2010.
The 5 highest from '09 average 90.8% on Metacritic, while 2010's first half top 5 manages over 94%.
Chained Echoes is getting slammed, and its devs have no idea why - Calling on Metacritic to do more.
Who doesn't have anything bad to write in these blank reviews and would benefit from sympathy sales?
I still say they should just get rid of the user score. They are untrustworthy of both good and bad review and honestly user reviews arent even a review. Of course tie it with the psn/xb account would be better.
That is simply horrible! The game is one of the best games, if not the best game of last year. Play this! Forget the bugged and rigged system of review bombing, just buy it and support Matthias and his team. These guys are superb!! We need to fight this stuff as a community, because small indie devs are the ones who least deserve this type of mistreatment.
User reviews are screwed for obvious reason and so are “professional” reviews because of money that companies throw around in many ways.
I just buy games that I think I will enjoy. Some devs you know make good games. Some long lasting series I know I will enjoy. Mostly I know what a game I want to play looks like. On rare occasion I get it wrong but I just sell it on eBay but that’s rare these days.
By most accounts this is a good game. I haven’t played it yet waiting for my physical copy.
Put it this way, I love jrpgs, but usually I play for 10 hours and move on. I had 80 hours in chained echoes and 100 percented it. The story is great and the game is beautiful. If you have game pass play it right now! If not buy it!

PS3 exclusives are scoring high
even Mario is very good for a Wii game
even multiplatforms are good
Yeah 10' has had better games in the first half but I think 09' has the second half.
6 ps3 games, 4 x360 games. good good
Mario at #1
Couldn't agree more
Every post eventually turns to be about ps3 vs x360.Hardly any1 judge the article.IMO 2010 will beat 2009 hands down.2007 is the year that can come close to it.We are getting iterations of every flagship franchise of every platform.If Diablo 3 comes out this year,it will be difficult to beat 2010 anytime soon.
