A 9 for Arms and a 6 for Tekken 7 is just a head scratcher
Yes, the Tekken score was obviously way to high and the ARMS score too low.

Edge really likes nintendoJust 7 for Mania. Dafuq?
I wouldn't be surprised if they gave it an 11They're setting up to give Mario Odyssey a 10
Lol almost thought this was a haikuSelectively just Edge's.
Bad try.
You're just not good at this.
Edge really likes nintendo
They're shit to me. It's subjective.
Sure but the only thing conducive to a discussion is some elaboration beyond 'I disagree with these reviews, they're shit'. I read Edge every month and I haven't noticed any decrease in quality.
Or maybe Sonic Mania, despite being a faithful recreation, is just that - a recreation. Not worthy of lauded praise, but worthy of a congratulatory 'well done' for not screwing up a yet another Sonic game.
Disappointing you don't want to elaborate on why Edge reviews have been shit lately, so I can now dismiss your claim.They're shit to me. It's subjective.

I did.Mario + Rabbids is gonna be 2017's sleeper hit. No one thought of it. No one wanted it. Then everyone did.
Arms is a really neat 3D fighter imo so it deserves it, but that Tekken score could be higher tho indeed.
Edge is one of the publications that uses the full scale, though.Arms in no way deserves a 9, a score reserved for the very best the industry has to offer. Arms is a game no one will recognize in 5 years, a game no one will care about in 6 months. IMO obviously.
Tekken is a better game than a 7. Or in reality the score system is broken. I HATE 1-10 scales where half the scale is basically nothing. So useless.

So an 8 for both?

I played the demo and it felt worse than a 5.I don't, but Knack 2 isn't a 5 for any human being with common sense.

What are you talking about? Edge do use the full scale. 7 is a good score from them.Arms in no way deserves a 9, a score reserved for the very best the industry has to offer. Arms is a game no one will recognize in 5 years, a game no one will care about in 6 months. IMO obviously.

Oh I see.Not sure I trust Switch reviews anymore. It seems like every major game is just rated too highly. I am sure it is a great game but better than most of what has come out in the past half year? I think it's time we went to 11 guys.
And then Sonic Mania what the fuck. These guys are lost in Nintendo's butt at this point.
I don't, but Knack 2 isn't a 5 for any human being with common sense.
That's all really funny and all, but a 7 is a 7.
And I took their explanation to mean that it was a return to doing things the genesis games did (such as getting rid of the all the shitty friends) but not an overall return to form.
edit: and wait
What do you mean "them"? Are you suggesting I have some agenda against this game?
9 for Rabbids.
Ok I'm going to have to buy it sooner than I expected.
Knack2 is an average game.
Knack2 has 70% on metacritics, that is an average score in most publications.
EDGE use the full score scale, so a 4-6 score is perfectly fitting and depends on the reviewer. A score lower than 4 or higher than 6 would be not appropriate.
The Metacritic aggregate is 70 i.e. 7/10, so the bolded makes no sense.
It makes sense when you think about it.

.. it wouldnt be at 70 if the appropriate score was 4-6.
A 7/10 for Mania seems fair considering that Edge "uses the whole scale." It's a great callback game but nothing that completely blows the mind. I'd bump it up to an 8 though.
On the Sonic scale it's a 10/10, at least.
game reviewers dont all work on the same scale.
an average game in an edge review gets ~5 /10

I'm not quite sure what you're arguing. Is someone not supposed to score it lower than the metacritic average?Even so, 48 of the 65 reviews on Metacritic are 7< whilst only 17 are 7>.

Edge don't really use the whole scale, they just use 5 and 6, whereas most will drop to a 7 for a game they hate with particular intensity.
