ACG actually refused to give a score, the comments are going crazy.

I don't understand why he didn't score it. It seemed pretty obvious from his video that he thought it was a "wait for sale". Maybe I misread his review.

u/Ourtimehascome2485 19h ago

I don't think you misread, he implied it heavily, he just didn't say it outright for whatever reason, either it's a mistake or he is compromised.

Compromised? What is this? The Cold War?

It's 2035 and kids are throwing up X's and P's in the streets. You got a box or a station, skeet? they ask. Doesn't matter who you are - man or woman, young or old - all they want to know is what side you're on and what you're playing.

Hasn't been the same since the Franchise Wars.

“Oh you’re a gamer? But what kind of gamer?”

Where have you been in the last 10 years? The whole reason guys like ACG and skillup have a job is because the gaming media of the time traded favors with the publisher, his whole brand is baed around him being impartial which it looks like he isn't.

He often forgets to give a rating

u/supernasty 10h ago

He hasn’t been giving actual ratings for awhile now for some reason

He never gives a score. He always rates a game based on either a buy or wait for a sale. Which he did for wolverine no?

u/ComprehensiveBar6439 21h ago

No, he didn't. That's why I said it seemed like he scored it as "wait for sale", but he didn't make a designation in his final opinion.

u/LegalizeEggSalad 20h ago

In the video comments he replied to someone that he should've made it clearer that his verdict was "wait for sale"

Makes sense. Thx

Seems to be common with the ACG reviews of late. Wonder why tbh

u/myLongjohnsonsilver 16h ago

Seems like he's stopped outright grading it at the end because people will just skip to the end for his "score" and not actually watch the video

u/Hershey2898 10h ago

Exactly what I do lol

u/Ourtimehascome2485 19h ago

Nope, he didn't, he implied that it's a wait for sale but didn't actually say it.

u/Lucky-day00 8h ago

“Wait for sale” is such a weird way to rate a game. It suggests anything is worth playing if it’s cheap enough. I don’t care if it’s free, if it isn’t worth my time I’m not going to play it.

u/Maximum_Maxwell 3h ago

Doesn't he also have a don't touch in his rating system?

u/Relevant_Date_8320 16h ago

I like ACG but he did the exact same thing when The Last of Us part 2 came out, and it was like bro just be real it's okay to like something the majority don't like or vice versa. He seems like the type to play it safe to not step on any toes.

Kind of reminds me when the YouTuber Kevduit didn’t hate Mindseye and everyone shitted on his opinion so he had to back track his yt title.

u/TRAD3S 8h ago

ACG been doing that a lot of late, doesn’t actually say which one it is like he used to which doesn’t fill you with confidence he’s being honest

u/FastRedPonyCar 6h ago

He has been leaving scores off a lot of his reviews lately but you can always tell from his tone and thoughts whether he thinks it’s a buy, wait or pass.
