agreed, but some people will think along the lines of ‘if it is better on that console, then i’ll get it for that console.’

So what if it is slightly better on another console? As long as it plays right, it shouldn’t be a problem.

it can mean which console some people will get it on because they believe that the score makes t better on that console.

I can’t imagine 1 percent being a big deal. I really wouldn’t know the difference between an 85 or an 86.
Also, the reviewers aren’t necessarily biased. Not every game is worth a 90+ score.

except often they will round a game up 1 percent when they shouldn’t and vice versa. and as you said the reviewers are biased too.

They only create averages. Nothing more or less. Only the reviewers that are part of the compilation can be biased.

Metacritic is inaccurate and often too biased.
