Critic Taxes and Rebates: Predicting Video Game Review Scores
from Blowing Cartridges · host Blowing Cartridges
On the latest episode of Blowing Cartridges, we were joined by Jon from Hype Factor: A Fantasy Critic Podcast for our second Fantasy Critic inspired podcast episode. Do indie games automatically receive lower aggregate review scores than major triple A games? Are there definitive truths and maxims when trying to predict the future aggregate score for a video game? Are genre, publisher or developer overriding factors that add or subtract weight from an aggregate score? What are some of the 2026 games that we think are worth considering if you are a fantasy critic player? Tune in to hear our respective takes on these topics and more!
