I won't do that in an Xbox thread.Ok, now do that for PS exclusives. We've got to rule out the possibility that Gamespot is just overall more harsh with their review scores.

I won't do that in an Xbox thread.
Not an Xbox thread, as Quantum Break is a multiplat title also on PC. Which reminds me, can you move the thread to the appropriate section while you're here, Andy?

I am not here to convince you.I understand, but then that leaves me unconvinced.
Ha ha, no, we'll leave it here.
It is an Xbox thread:
FORUMS > GAMING > XBOX DISCUSSION
As stated already by Andy and PV, if the game is on PC and a console and not available on the other console, it goes in the console section.
We have a s*** ton of games to play on Xbox. Try again. It's just a hobby.My bad, guess i missed that. No problem, we need something to talk about in the Xbox section. The One X thread is starting to dry up, so we need to start talking about the games again. Whether exclusive or not.
Just wish we could have a real discussion without people drawing the battle lines. I know some of ya'll would go to bat for Microsoft if someone toilet papered their front lawn but got damn, it's just a hobby fellas.
I'd say all of the reviews that are in the 40-50 range are pretty far out there.
The Gerstmann review was only remarkable because he completely missed the entire point of the gameplay, then complained about the gameplay. Even posted a video of himself playing it while complaining.
Feel free to convince yourself thoughWell, you've succeeded, then.
You don't say?Yeah, I saw quite a few clustered in that range. A fair percentage of reviewers just did not like it much.
I'm just not inclined to think there is a wide-spread reviewer bias against MS -- that all of those reviewers rating it low just did it because they secretly dislike the Xbox and want it to fail. I think there are much simpler and less conspiratorial explanations.

And you see you in an Xbox thread with yet, more Sony fanboyism disguised as "friendly conversation." Color me shocked. Are you guys taking a class for this s***?And you see MS as the perpetual victim. Color me surprised.
insecure fanboys had to infect the thread. The Fuking s*** is tired as Fuk.

Honestly, this thread was for those who appreciated QB - enjoyed the game. Once again, insecure fanboys had to infect the thread. The Fuking s*** is tired as Fuk.
It's not widespread. But Kvally showed you a pattern with a major site. And GB isn't much different than GS in that regard.
Kvally left his homework undone. As I said, you'd have to look at Gamespot's pattern of rating PS exclusives, too, in order to rule out that it wasn't just the fact that Gamespot grades games harder in general (vs. just MS games).

GS probably is a little harsher than most in general. I don't really pay much attention to them to be honest.
But of course I do...smhWow. You seem like the insecure fanboy to me.
