Subject: So Xbox360achievements.org released their 2012 GOTY awards...

Meepzoid

I think Halo 4 had a great story. Especially the ending. Too tired of seeing first parts of a trilogy ending with an open ended ending.

x360achievements tends to have over exaggerated scores and praise. Battlefield 3's review score for example, no way that game deserves a 94%. The fact updates take hours, co-op mode being boring as all hell and a very crappy campaign does not equate to a 94%. The multiplayer is awesome, one of the greatest multiplayer experiences I've had, but in no way does just a single part of the $60 package equate to a 94%. I would have given the game a 80%.

Halo 4 getting best multiplayer is a honest opinion. Live is fun, but the fact playlist get switched in and out is absurd and honestly, custom games is terrible. Halo 3 and Reach had a total flexible custom game options, this one in Halo 4 is almost too basic and barbone. Why can't you have forced colors? Why is it just stupid appearances?

I don't think you understand how gaming media works nowadays when it comes to giving review scores. They tend to ignore huge parts of the game and still give it a good score. BF3 is all about the multiplayer, but look at Far Cry 3. Fantastic, fantastic singleplayer, but it has a mediocre co-op and multiplayer. 9's across the board, one of te highest rates games of the year.

It's just how the media works nowadays. One-sided reviews that highlight what the game is focused on.
