200

Metacritic is a funny site. It gives reviewers more power than they really want.

What I’m talking about is the horrible bonus culture within gaming that relies on an aggregated review score. Why am I thinking about this? Well because Daniel Lipscombe recently wrote our 200th review, which is the minimum requirement for acceptance on Metacritic. We aren’t guaranteed anything yet but it’s bringing up some interesting questions. Am I qualified? Do I want to buy into and feed this practice? Why does this feel like a massive accomplishment?

I guess probably, maybe and 200 reviews is the achievement would be the answers. It’s exciting nonetheless.
