There's a crap load of PC games right now

October 1st, 2012

I check Metascore once every few months in search of games I might have missed. It's helpful for keeping tabs on what's scoring well with both critics and users alike. 

Granted, I've played high scoring Metacritic games I didn't like. And I've played low-scoring ones that I felt should be higher (go figure, likes and dislikes are subjective). But overall, I'd argue that Metacritic is a good filter or sorting tool to help you find new games. 

When I check today, I was impressed by the number of high scoring PC games. So you know, usually when I check, there are 5-10 "green" games, followed by lots of yellow and red ones.

Today? Check out all that green below. Then let me know if there's any you weren't aware of previously but might like to play.

Why is Armored Kill only a 6.9? I was under the impression it was a pretty good DLC.

Most games I was aware of. I think metascore is evil... rumours of people layed of if a game doesn't reach a certain metascore and sites only getting review versions if they give a high score might misrepresent the games a little. Besides that, it has been busy with AAA releases indeed.

I think a little of a bias on a games like Black Mesa.

Through all the differences it is still perfection.

A lot of the games up there deserve to be up there. Overall I think the list is pretty accurate.

I know many of them and think they deserve such a score, many great games were released in the last months.

Edit: Took too long with my post, aliencat wrote nearly the same :D

Anything below 89 is apparently "trash" to you. LOL

You must not play a lot of vidya.

I've used metascore several times in determining whether or not to purchase a game.

I use metascore sometimes not a bad system. Sometimes it can be little more harsh then what it should be though.

my time has come.

Wow, it's awesome that Black Mesa is up there! I honestly never use Metascore, I trust myself as being the best judge of whether a game is good or not.
