Stupid 360 User Reviews of DA:O

I was looking on Metacritic at DA:O and the PC user reviews seemed rightfully high and positive. I then look at the 360 user reviews and see these types of reviews (these are actual reviews, see them for yourself :P):

"Not the fast action game advertised. Turn based chess like game with wildy varying level confrontations, even with similar enemies throughout. Great story though. Buy lord of the rings dvds and reset DVD player randomly as you watch to replicate experience (score = 1/10)"

"Incredibly poor graphics,combat,spells etc.I was expecting a better version of an Oblivion type game but instead forced myself to sit through this generic rubbish.I thought they had stopped making this type of crap years ago.It makes sacred:fallen angel look good;and it was rubbish too.Points for the awesome trailers.(score = 3/10)"

This just enforces my lack in faith at the average console gamer and makes me think that DA:O should have been PC only. What do you think?

So basically you're cheerypicking user reviews to make some sort of elitist point about PC gamers in relation to console gamers?

You're why people don't like PC gamers.

It just reinforces my opinion that a lot of people are still not intelligent enough to look at know they're buying. It's like someone buying ArmAII expecting it to be like CoD4.

A dumb move on their part. PC users did the same thing with other big name games like Oblivion, expecting it to be just like Morrowind, so they're not exempt from it either.

They're on the 360 DA:O Metacritic page.

Also guys I'm not trying to say that consoles suck or anything, but I don't think DA:O is very suited to the console market and will be hated rather than appreciated as it should be. :)

Oh you just discovered the joy of looking at stupidly uneducated reviews : P

These are proof of how much more credible big site reviews are (for the most part) than what some ppl give them credit around here.

How did this go from dumb dude not understanding what DA:O is before buying to a thread about PC vs Console fans?

This is why I never trust user reviews and neither should you. Rarely are they honest or truthful about a game and they flood the average scores with unknowledgeable drivel rather a well-made critique.SpiritOfFire117

[QUOTE="SpiritOfFire117"][QUOTE="shawn7324"] Or you could just do what I do which is not care a slightest bit about any reviews. Anyone can look at an upcoming game & tell whether or not they are interested in playing it or not. Once I got one that looks like I will want to play, it is not good nor bad until after I play & decide.shawn7324

[QUOTE="shawn7324"][QUOTE="SpiritOfFire117"] What is "play" then? Do they mean that they actually sat down and played the game the way it was meant to be played or did they just "play at a friend's house"?SpiritOfFire117

[QUOTE="SpiritOfFire117"][QUOTE="shawn7324"] I don't follow. What exactly are you asking?shawn7324
