Comment Why is IGN bad? (Score 2, Insightful) 34
(I am not associated in any way with metacritic or IGN, this is just my honest opinion)
I usually go to metacritic.com for reviews of games. They take a lot of reviews from other sites, convert their ratings to a '0 to 100' scale and calculate an average score.
I've found that these scores reflect my own opinion most of the time (not always).
Now, IGN's score is usually close to the average score. This indicates to me that they are not very biased at all. And I usually find the reviews themselves to be pretty good as well. They cover all the aspects of the game and give a good impression.
Now, I am naive or missing something?
I do agree that sometimes the add overdose can be annoying, but I think the content of IGN is just fine.
