So, I was stuck with some Steam games with really low MetaCritic scores, and wasn't sure what to do with them. I'm sure you can guess what I decided to do. :D

Feel free to make a giveaway for anything you want, as long as the MetaCritic is 49 and lower.

Currently a metacritic score of 22! Does that mean I'm giving away the worst games the best?

This doesn't even have a metacritic rating; a user score of a generous 4.3 will have do to. Also, surprise is gone now.
But I just couldn't resist adding one of the most infamous pieces of trash in the history of PC gaming.

[Garshasp: Temple of the Dragon] (http://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/RGshK), no CV from minanu

No metacritic score right now but current reviews are 35 and 7. I think it does count

"Garshasp's only advantage is its price, but the time you would waste on this weak game is much more valuable."

I don't trust the user score. Mass Effect 3 had a very low user score thanks to that ridiculous campaign. Okay, professional reviewers are biased too and many are paid off, but there's some truth in their ratings.

It basically got blasted before anything happened, they used what powers YouTube gives them to have stuff removed, which even resulted in some accounts being shut down. The professional review on Metacritic has it on 10%, and I'd believe that.

Comment has been collapsed.

I sometimes find that the so-called 'critics' fail to judge on important factors such as how buggy a game is at launch or the quality of a port. That's why I personally trust Metacritic user scores more than I do critic scores. A larger sample size helps too. Anyway, when so many people are saying bad things something has got to be up.

On a related note, I think most Steam reviews are misleading if you sort them by the "most helpful". I've noticed a general trend of negative reviews getting downvoted and positive reviews getting upvoted. Not every game but the majority of those that I have looked at. There's definitely people going through there and downvoting every review that doesn't match their own views, which I think is bullshit. So hopefully Valve can come up with some better/more useful statistics.

It depends on what you deem important. How buggy something is at launch is irreleveant to me. I only buy heavily discounted games, which pretty much rules out new releases. I got Arkham Origins with a graphics card. It had a game-stopping bug. I was freaking out, thinking I had to wait for them to fix it (until I got that other bug to work), but that's just because the game was THAT awesome.

Garry's Incident has only one professional review. The review itself is as helpful as a "Quotation forthcoming". So I don't have anything to base my opinion on. The giveaways have ~1000 participants... Sounds like it's becoming a cult classic (sorry guys).

Oh, and SilentGuy, you're welcome. I guess :P

People enter giveaways for everything, especially when the point machine is on overdrive. As long as it's free it doesn't seem to matter how bad something is, so I don't think that really means anything. Some people also enter giveaways for known bad games just because they want to see just how awful it is for themselves. It's kind of like watching a train wreck lol
