Smash 4 apparently got a 9.8, and now people in the video review's comments are salty about it.

I saw the review and actually thought about jokingly making a topic complaining it is too low

You sure they're not joking?

Video game review scores


Scores in every type of review are completely arbitrary. They just open it to comparisons with other ones, when people should just be looking at the reviews themselves.

I wish they were done away with.

Nintendo probably paid more for Smash 4 because they really needed to pump up Wii U sales.

Alternatively, Smash 4 felt like a greater increase in quality over Brawl than Smash Ultimate has over Smash 4.

But I'm more willing to bet it's that Nintendo paid more.

A 9.8 and a 9.4 are really fucking stupid scores. There's no actual difference between those two

Reminds me back when one of the EGM writers gave Wind Waker a 9 and got a shitload of hate mail.

IMO its a perfectly fair, even generous rating considering how the last part of the game was so tedious any replay value or good moments are overshadowed by horrors of sailing for hours collecting triforce pieces.

Who even cares what SSBU gets, it's barely even a new game anyway, it's more like SSB's version of an anthology or collection, plus a tiny bit of new content. If you've played SSB games before, you know what you'll be getting.

Sterling gave BOTW a 7 or something.

It reminds me of Arnold White who gave Toy Story 3 a rotten score. Like a 2 out of 10.

Blatant move for attention

Any professional critic who gives BoTW a 7 is completely brain dead. But I guess it's just an opinion at the end of the day.

Oddly enough, the people who care about them the most tend to be people who claim they don't matter.

It's crazy that people dont take into account that different people are reviewing these games and comparing them is stupid. It's like when people pull up that God Hand/Wii shovelware thing.

Armand White. I agree people can have subjective opinions, but he was the worst kind of contrarian.

I honestly think they should just do away with the scores. I rather actually read/watch the review and see what their actual input than taking their conclusion out of context like the "2 much watar 7.8/10 lololololol". Ign made the correct move in getting rid of thr pros and cons and i think it probably would be a better idea to get rid of the scores as well so people can be more informed about the game.

This is true but God Hand is a bad example since almost all the IGN staff hated it (according to the reviewer anyway).
