Publishers only allow game review sites/magazines get early access to their games if they write a favourable review. Early access means more hits/purchases.

Hell I remember reading about a reviewer that was paid in prostitutes.

Folks, you really really can't trust what a reviewer says. Trust your own eyes, if there is a demo, play that and decide for yourself.

The only site I've come across that doesn't seem to screw us over is ars.

I disagree with you wholeheartedly.

There are actually only about 20 reviewers that gave it a 10/10. EA lied.

Without the ending the game is an 8.5 because:
-fetch missions
-tons of auto dialogue and railroading (most apparent in first 2 hours of game)
-Crucible plotline seemed forced and it could have been fleshed out a bit more
-lack of relevant side missions with a good amount of story
 


But then with the ending ot is a 7.5. The ending goes against what Bioware said only weeks prior and it was very poorly done as well as breaking any forms of rational, intelligent logic.


 

 
Barely any game ever achieve perfection and not even Mass Effect 1 is worthy of that award.

There is more than just metacritic by the way.....MSNBC for instance, is not on MC.

Here's a video dealing about paid reviewers.

Same old controversy, same old arguments. Ofcourse there must be some huge conspiracy with EA/Bioware and all the positive reviewers (75 is quite a huge amount). That is really the only possibility, since they dont agree with YOU, the endhater and your opinion cannot possibly be wrong in any way.

Sometimes I wonder how the humans managed to transport several people to the moon and back, and then devolved into the current generation on rapid internet activists.

That Eidos tweet made me laugh.

Reviewers are meant to review games without any bias at all. Unfortunately, this forces them into a mindset of a person who is pretty much playing ME for the first time, thus the ending not seeming so bad, besides with the amounts of games they need to play and beat their ability to be as hardcore or opinionated fans like us is nearly impossible.

[MechaGaiden]

The perfect review scores are puzzling to say the least. I generally despise it when people go "THEY DON"T AGREE WITH ME SO THEIR OBVIOUSLY BEING BRIBED", but the fact that almost none of the reviews I've read even discuss the ending is suspicious. I'm inclined to say that realistically they just didn't finish the game due to time constraints, but who knows.

You must really not understand basic math


 
I rarely (maybe 3 times in 10 years) go to meta critic. I try reading many sources to get a better grasp a situation since everyone has bias but there is typically a "true" middle ground.

If you actually look at all the sites only about 20 give a perfect 10 (still undeserving) and many others give a 9.0-9.5, then there are the rest which go between 6.5 - 8.5.

I do understand that you are a troll, especially with your sig and are just trying to get a rise out of people.

A bit off topic but Shepard does deserve better fans (he/she has them from the fans that genuinely care about the series instead of blindly following like sheep) but you aren't a good fan.

See what I did there? I made something directly trying to bait you. It was immature and just plain dumb but that also describes your sig.

Probably posted but cant be posted enough....



But really i stopped paying attention to reviews years ago.

Better than.....Call of Duty, Halo Reach, Uncharted 2 and 3, GTA 4


Nope. Not better WITH  or WITHOUT the ending. 

Maybe if it had remained an RPG it would have decimated the opposition

[hopeisreal]

And i'm sorry....that laughable evasion of reapers in space is something out of a game from the late 80's.

That alone should take serious points down.

[hopeisreal]

The real point I'm trying to make here is, the point of the perfect scores is an argument that should NEVER be brought up.
With game sites giving so many games 9's or 10's....it's hard to tell those that are deserving. It's not like the old days when very few games got a 9 and about four got a 10.

All I want is some objectivity. If you can honestly tell me this is on par with the likes of Gears 1 or 2, Uncharted 2, ANY of the GTA games and Halo.....then you are simply not being objective and just being biased.

Whenever I think of dodgy reviews, one always stands out:
Back in the days of the Playstation 1, the UK Official Playstation mag had the first review of Star Wars: Episode 1: The Phantom Menace game. They had visibly awful screenshots and yet in their final analysis implied the graphics were really good (giving them an 8/10).
They subsequently gave the game as a whole 8/10. Not such a high score that you instantly think 'not authentic' until you read their sister publication Playstation Power from the next month, where they stated that they were going to review the game, but found out it was only 30% complete and so refused to review it. Both were Future Publishing magazines, and it has always stuck with me as the most shocking example.
Incidentally, when they did finally review the game about seven months later, they didn't like it. Likewise every other publication loathed it.

[Zenyattaa]

Yeah so many perfect scores the game's price dipped to 29.99 Within a few months of release at several retailers. (Amazon Walmart and gamestop I believe.)

People at gamestop saying don't buy it...

Mmhmm.

Yeeeep.

True, but the number of "perfect" scores you can find for any game these days is meaningless unless you have a predetermined sample of reviewers and you stick to it. That's the only way you can get something even close to a relevant comparison between the quality of two games (and even then it's still debatable). If the sample of reviews isn't consistent or based on some kind of rules, you can just scour the internet to find tons of "perfect" scores from some random guy's blog or forum post to inflate the number. One downside of a system like this is that if someone like EA knows the list of sites which count toward the metacritic score, they know the people they need to try to "encourage" to give their games higher scores.

Just making sure I got this right. The game was so awesome, so amazing, so flawless in its execution that you smiled when Mordin died.

That's right. You tried too hard and got caught.

ME was a big name and EA has a lot f money. If you were a large reviewer, that makes a lot of money off advertisement, would you "really" want to try and get on EA's bad side? The game getting scored high would lead to more hits which leads to more advertisement which leads to more money.

You have proof of this I assume. 

 
Look up on YouTube Kane and Lynch gamespot review, that shows you the truth of game reviewers. 

[SwoopIM]

I give it a 9.5 right up until until the last 10 minutes. Then I subtract 1 point per minute for the HORRIBLE end sequence when the game totally deteriorated. Total: 0.5. The "reviewers" obviously did not play thru the ending.

[hopeisreal]

Mate.....9.5 up until the ending? That's just the fan in you talking.

This....

Not to mention revewers dont have the time to play Me 3 (or any game for that matter)  all the way through.  Me 3 was a good game but even if  the end of the game did NOT suck and it was GREAT I dont think this game would be perfict. I would rate it at a 8.5 or 9. Defently not a 10 their was way to many little bugs in the game.
