Oops sorry link fixed. I just copied what Aaron Greenberg tweeted. NPD report day is today I guess.Hm, link doesn't work for me...
Nevertheless, I'm sure this will escalate quickly, the title itself is enough to cause instant butthurt in some people we know and love! :P

I have 14 Xbox 360 exclusives right here. Why would people buy a console for 14 games and to get ripped off by XBL?

We have come to the point where xbox sells more than all other systems combined (Wii + WiiU + PS3), it is really funny
Why even have a system wars section, when there is nothing to actually rival xbox anymore
But obviosuly with games like Halo 4, Fable Jounrey and Witcher 2 (and not crap like .... wonderbook) these sales are expected

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't the 360 shift more units around this time last year?

True but given the current global financial climate and that we are reaching market saturation, its impressive that they sold that many units.Lol Metacritic.[QUOTE="clyde46"][QUOTE="Maneil99"]

Yeah, that sums up Metacritic rather well. It's indeed a huge facepalm of flaws and inconistencies, filled with enough logic holes for a truck convoy to drive through...

Its the way it uses the reviews to grade a game. One bad review get really harm a games Meta's score.[QUOTE="DanteSuikoden"][QUOTE="clyde46"] Halo 4.clyde46

True but given the current global financial climate and that we are reaching market saturation, its impressive that they sold that many units.Indeed, these sales are really exceptional, as we're approaching the end of the gen. At this point, I expected they'd slow down to a crawl, but we aren't there yet...

Agreed. I wonder how their success will transfer over to the next gen though.

The console will have to priced attractively, no one will pay stupid money because don't have as much disposable income this time around.[QUOTE="Rocker6"]

Seriously?
It's an aggregate, it mashes a bunch of reviews who are written in different ways and have different standards into a single number. It doesn't take those differences into the account, and as such, it is not to be taken seriously...
There are also inconistencies in the number of reviews per game, possibilities for the "no-name" sites to inflate or damage the score, and problems in converting "1-5" review scale into "1-100" scale. I could think of more, but I'm feeling a bit lazy at the moment...
In conclusion, I'd take a well-written review from a source I trust any day over that aggregate mess. The only thing MC can be good for is having links for many review sites into one place, for easy access...

Its the way it uses the reviews to grade a game. One bad review get really harm a games Meta's score.You're talking about "troll" reviews, right? If a reviewer gave a bad honestreview to a game, it is welcome to be published on Metacritic. We don't want lies and bias, do we?
I like to have many reviews on a single page so I can go through them and reading them. A very good way to judge a game. I'd do this for personal reasons, not for SW.

The console will have to priced attractively, no one will pay stupid money because don't have as much disposable income this time around.True, a $600 console would be a recipe for the disaster this time around. Furthermore, I don't think devs will focus on raw hardware power much, as this gen provided strong proof how that doesn't matter too much to the general audiences. That's a win-win for console vendors, the production costs are cheaper and they can make profit per unit sold more easier, while the consumer is left with an affordable product...
