" When I read the BioShock 2 review, I got the feeling that it should have had three stars instead of four. Then I noticed the add for BioShock 2 on the site, and all sorts of conspiracy theories came to mind. I started thinking, "should GiantBomb even review games that are being advertised on the site?"
I know that it is common practice and brings money to the site, but I think it's a conflict of interests. What do you guys think? "
If you look around the internet, this is not a high score for Bioshock 2. This is actually the lowest score on Metacritic right now. "
The metacritic score is 88, so a 4/5 is as close as they can get to that, if you want follow that route. Any rating system out of 5 shouldn't be compared to a rating system out of 10 or 100. This site has made it clear in the past that the score shouldn't mean as much as the words in the review. "
