I really liked it, so went Ad Free. I like to see certain scores and this does it. Nice. PS I had to uninstall to get no ads but it's fine now

Horrible scraping.. the PSP does not have just a handful of games

The specifics of your search are in now way up to scratch. The site is pretty poorly designed. I could not go through individual review websites. The app feels like an early beta version of metacritic.

K70%
by K####:

The layout is nice and clean and modern, but checking out the reviews individually only kicks you to the browser. So what's the point? Better off just going to the browser from the get go. This is redundant. Metacritic needs a prime app.

Easy to use, does exactly what its supposed to do.

Z70%
by Z####:

A very nice job on the update. I really like the design and how it's organized by console. My only suggestion is to allow to see in-app reviews somehow. Also, try to add 3DS under console if you can! :) 5 stars, love it. Keep doing what you do, and thanks for the app!

It just directs you to Metas site when you click the reviews.. Might as well just save their site to your homepage than waste your phones space on this app.

I70%
by I####:

In short this is a quick look, not a mobile website app. You search and see the score, if you want more just click and you are sent to the site. The barcode scan is nice as well.

Q70%
by Q####:

As difficult as it may be, the closer the app gets to being like the website, the better. The fluidity with which I can link from Steam, to Metacritic, to the reviews Metacritic provides is the reason I use them both to find good games and game reviews. I like to research and the Metacritic website is great for that purpose. A few UI suggestions: 1) Allow for access to ALL pc, ps4, xbox, etc via drop-down. 2) Link to review sites and user reviews like the website. 3) ADD an app game section for ios/'driod.

I do game release dates and a lot of other stuff and this helps me stay updated on whats coming out and when so that I can tell everyone.

by Q####:

Works as advertised but its "ugly". Not quite a real metacritic app like i wanted, but it certainly does the job if all you want it a quick metascore.

Love Metacritic but this app kept locking up my phone. Not impressed.

Very easy to use, simple design, fast loading. Anyone who knows the game knows descriptions aren't needed and the simplier the design, the better. Great app, found via devs. reddit link.

Can't read actual reviews just scores?

Q70%
by Q####:

The lack of sorting gimps this app for the purpose I would actually use it for. I don't use metacritic to check on a particular game, I use it to find the best games.

Q70%

Can't search. :(

You get the metascore right away for critics' scores--the only scores that actually matter.

The update and new design makes finding a game harder. I spelled the game right and still it shows results of different games.

Z70%
by Z####:

Just installed and played around for a bit. Unimpressed with results. I tried the filter and results continue to show the game systems I filtered out.

R70%
by R####:

Best I have tried so far. Only does games but that suits me. Would be good if it pulled the users score as well as the pro critics, as this helps when judging the overall rating.

F70%

Any plans for movies?

X70%
by X####:

While it does provide the scores, it'd be nice if it also provided the reviews, links to them, or a link to the game on the Metacritic website. Other than that, seems to work well, although kind of slow on my Droid 4.
