User blog comment:Airos/Rant: Why I dislike PC gaming/@comment-2249418-20110608112623/@comment-2249418-20110608170833

Welcome to gaming. What we're talking about isn't just a problem with PC games. It's ALL platforms of games. And the average scores on metacrtic(an average of everyone who rated the game.) for FO:NV are an 84. I think that's completely on point to be honest, because it's still a good game despite the glitches and the aging game engine. And to further the point I made earlier, the games near the top of the charts (closer to 100) are much more polished.

Portal 2? 95/100 on metacritic. No issues of serious glitches. Starcraft 2? 93/100 on metacrtic. No issues of serious glitches. Half life 2-The all-time best rated game on PC? 96/100. No issues of serious glitches.

A developer can make a GOOD game and still have serious glitches. But to make a truly GREAT, INDUSTRY-CHANGING game, your game has to be PERFECT. Portal 2 is considered REVOLUTIONARY not only to puzzle games, but PC gaming as a whole. Starcraft II has a HUGE following, with professional tournaments with hundreds of thousands of dollars in the prize pool. Half-life 2, though released in 2004, is STILL considered THE BEST PC GAME OF ALL TIME. Do you think that any of this could have happened with serious glitches? Absolutely not. People will/have already put down Fo:NV. The truly great games will never be put down or forgotten.
