Writing for entertainment reviews aggregator Metacritic, Jason Deitz rounds up the year’s best games and the game platform with the highest rated products based on critics review scores. Sony edges out Microsoft in consoles for the first time in 2009, with both a slate of well-reviewed PS3 exclusives and higher scores for PS3 versions of multiplatform games. Meanwhile Wii woes get another spotlight, here in the form of software quality where the highest rated games are in the middling 80 or high 70 percentile while top Xbox 360 and PS3 titles trend much higher.
Check out the roundup, including PC games and handheld systems, at Metacritic.
