Written by Glenn Dalton Jr.   
For all those wondering why there is no x-play review of Uncharted 2 on Metacritic, I now have the answer you’ve been searching for.

Yesterday, I sent Metacritic this message:

"I was wondering where the X-PLAY from G4TV review is for Uncharted 2: Among Thieves they gave it a 5/5, but I don’t see it on the list?”

Their response was this:

” Stopped working with them in March - mutually agreed.”

So, the question I have is this: what’s going on behind the scenes that would make a huge game site and a huge video game show quit working together?

When pressed on the issue G4TV responded by saying.

"We couldn’t come to an agreement on how they should convert our 5-star system into their 100-point system... They wanted to make it a straight mathematical conversion – but that doesn’t take into account what we actually intended by our review system. So we choose to go separate ways, just like in the Journey song."
So, there's the answer.
