Lots of gaffers still making fools of themselves discussing Tom Chick's lists, I see. A fine Xmas tradition.
Tom Chick is a god. I love when he "wrecks a metascore" and he gets 500 comments about how reviewers shouldn't include their opinions in their reviews. Or when he uses words properly but people have negative connotations about them. One year he put a game he scored 4/5 as his most disappointing game of the year (because it was oh so close to being amazing) and I was concerned the internet was about to implode.
His Forza Horizon 2 review or whatever it was recently had people saying he should be banned from Metacritic* because he's literally stealing money from developers by giving their games bad reviews and potentially knocking them below bonus thresholds.
*When he didn't even ask to be on Metacritic, they add his reviews of their own accord.
