Yeah I know. I just thought that was a great comment to explain how people could waste away $80 million, something that to most of us in here would seem literally impossible.Those people were stupid before they were rich. Having money wasn't going to make them any less dumb.
MIne? A few years before.Elephant in the room question incoming. Feel free to tell me it is none of my business.
Was the daughter before or after the winnings? You can probably guess and answer the follow on questions from that without me having to type them out (assuming you even answer that one).
Products released after 1/20/2015 cannot be registered at Club Nintendo, earn surveys or Coins.So when I get my 3DS what should I do with the club nintendo code? Will it be enough to get me a game or anything?

Batting average is actually a pretty terrible representation of a hitter's worth.Why do people hate Metacritic so much? I've never understood that one bit. They just take all the game reviews with scores, average them out, and then share what that number is. What is there to hate? It's like hating Batting Average in baseball.
Gamers are soing stupid.

But I heard it works now and only takes 15 minutes to get into a game instead of 20.Here's a great example of how stupid release/pre-release reviews can be:
http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-one/halo-the-master-chief-collection
36/69 critic reviews are 90 or better for Master Chief Collection. It's got an 85 average.
So we know you split it with a friend, but did you have to split it with her mom too?MIne? A few years before.
No. We weren''t together at that point. In hindsight, she really blew it!So we know you split it with a friend, but did you have to split it with her mom too?
That depends. Do you have to spend $80 million in 80 days and show no assets? And do you get $800 million if you do?Yeah I know. I just thought that was a great comment to explain how people could waste away $80 million, something that to most of us in here would seem literally impossible.
Beats me, I like it for nothing else that it collects a lot of different people's opinions so it is easy to get a lot of viewpoints on the game. If I haven't heard anything about a game previously (it's on sale on PSN for cheap for example) generally read the highest scoring review, the lowest scoring English review (seriously, WTF are the lowest scoring reviews always in languages other than English?) and then a few in the middle to get a good sense of the game.Why do people hate Metacritic so much?

45 minutes go by and no one gives this solid Brewsters Millions joke some likes? C'mon people!That depends. Do you have to spend $80 million in 80 days and show no assets? And do you get $800 million if you do?
That's why I generally just divide it into two sections, gameplay (if there is more than one gameplay type then I'll split gameplay into more than one section) and everything else just falls under the banner of "Presentation" as none of the rest of that shit matters if the gameplay is bad or not fun.I'm probably hypocritical in this regard since I review games myself and may be part of these scores eventually, and I'd obviously prefer people to read the whole review instead of just the score/summary because I worked hard on writing it. But I understand the need to just get a quick overview/ProsCons list when you're pressed for time or just don't care that much about the details.
I kind of wish we'd get rid of the number scores on GG as well because they are kind of arbitrary and hard to really determine sometimes. Especially when the three categories we can make sub-numbers for can be whatever we want, instead of a set three for every review on the site.
I feel like saying that to nintendoyou!
Better call Saul.Welp, I'm done with Walking Dead.
you missed it bud. You blacked out for a week.The Castelvania sale is no longer shown, at least on mobile. ???
Stupid Google Play won't let me buy the second episode. It's like they're trying to make me pirate.Better call Saul.
It says Season Only when I look at it for both episodes.Stupid Google Play won't let me buy the second episode. It's like they're trying to make me pirate.
Just watch it on the website, the first two episodes don't require login with a cable provider to watch.Stupid Google Play won't let me buy the second episode. It's like they're trying to make me pirate.
Yeah, they changed it to that after I was on chat with their idiot support team for 20 minutes getting transferred 4 times.It says Season Only when I look at it for both episodes.
Metal Slug is awesome. That game is why I want to play Mercenary Kings so badly since it looks pretty similar. I am starting to think the Vita version is never going to happen for it so I may just have to go with the PS4 version.I have fond memories of playing a Metal Slug arcade machine in the basement lounge of my college's union building (along with Raiden) so I am going to have a hard time resisting that Metal Slug anthology PSP/VITA compilation.
That Polygon example is just a great example of why everyone should hate Polygon.
This, it's more a reflection of the shitty way Metacritic shapes the development/publishing side and how the need to be the first on Metacritic shapes the critical side. That shows the combined problem perfectly though. I love that Polygon is willing to go back and change scores as issues arise or a game is fixed but they should never have given that score to begin with.Eh. Whether you agree with the article's content, your question was about why people don't like Metacritic. It does a good job of summing up those reasons. Some (or all) of the reasons might be bullshit, but the article does a good job of answering your question.
Have you registered Wii Fit and America's Test Kitchen yet? If you can find ones with working codes it's $1 each and you should get 110 and 30 coins after post play surveys. There's also three free games that give 15 coins each with post play on 3DS (Pokemon Bank, Rusty's Real Deal Baseball, Steel Diver Something Something).I feel like saying that to nintendo
I'm 140 coins short of platinum
Bunch ofErs over there cutting down the time to hit platinum
I'm hurt that I'm not in the list even though I only stream every so often and no one enjoys it.Streaming Stardust. Gonna try out the broadcast mode.
Edit: Notification isn't working.
Check the OP
Submarine style sandwiches.What is this thread for or about? I keep seeing it bumped.
She's gross.So Mia Khalifa is the new big thing, huh?
Nice work on the 50 medals. I only made it to 20, but I didn't try terribly hard to get any of them. I didn't realize the PS4 & Vita trophy lists were seperate. Noticed no one on PS4 has the Flappy Bird trophy, but 5 people on Vita do. That's kinda funny.Beat Futuridium and got 50 medals, I think I'm done with the game. It's a fun game, challenges are just way too hard. I doubt the developer could even do them all. Colors were great but sometimes they were too disorienting to see what you were doing.
When I think of the best teams in history they don't involve one-and-dones playing in awful conferences against teams that can't hold a candle to the teams of even 10 years ago.They're undefeated and have a chance as being remembered as one of the best teams in history; if I want to make a post about it, I will.
I haven't gotten the chance to watch too much NCAA yet this year. Do they look that much more dominant than Anthony Davis' 2012 team, because that team was pretty ridiculous. And they beat my Jayhawks!!They're undefeated and have a chance as being remembered as one of the best teams in history; if I want to make a post about it, I will.
I think the roster is better top to bottom this year, but that 2012 team was more fun to watch.I haven't gotten the chance to watch too much NCAA yet this year. Do they look that much more dominant than Anthony Davis' 2012 team, because that team was pretty ridiculous.
Vita version is easier.Nice work on the 50 medals. I only made it to 20, but I didn't try terribly hard to get any of them. I didn't realize the PS4 & Vita trophy lists were seperate. Noticed no one on PS4 has the Flappy Bird trophy, but 5 people on Vita do. That's kinda funny.
Even funnier is that I scored 63 on the Flappy Bird (without cheating) and you can't get half that.
